| Advertise with 123aspx.com
123aspx.com's advertising program dynamically rotates standard-sized ad banners
throughout the site with links to advertisers' Web sites. When a user refreshes
a page or visits another page, a different banner is displayed. We also offer a
newsletter ad which is located at the top of our daily newsletter.
Why should you advertise with 123aspx.com?
123aspx.com provides value. Simple as
that. Every day THOUSANDS of developers, managers, and
competitors use www.123aspx.com . Get
your product or service shown to more Microsoft .NET related
people, than anywhere else. Every week scores of new resources
are added to www.123aspx.com and developers have come to
depend upon it as their leading source of no-nonsense .NET
information. You too can be affiliated with www.123aspx.com .
How does the advertising program work?
I’ve tried to keep this program as simple as possible. Basically, there are 2 locations to place banner ads on 123aspx.com,
and each of those locations have two slots, and a maximum number of advertisers per location. To advertise, you simply purchase a one of those advertising spots.

A Few Questions....
So What does this mean?
Here’s a little more detailed explanation of how this
works. Take for example, the location of Top and Bottom Banner
ads. There are two 468x60 banners found on each page: at the
top and the bottom. A maximum of 10 advertisers will be
allowed to fill these ads. The ads are shown at random. There
are 1,200,000 impressions shown between these two slots and
shared between the maximum of 10 advertisers. It costs $200 to
be an advertiser in this location. If you are the only
advertiser, your cost is as little as $.17 (17 cents) per 1000
banner impressions. If all 10 advertising spots are filled,
your advertising campaign will roughly cost $1.67 per 1000
impressions. These $/impressions are only shown for
comparison, as that is how most people judge the cost of a
campaign.
Likewise, say you
wanted to place a 125x125 banner on www.123aspx.com. Again,
there are only 3 slots available per page, resulting in an
estimated 1,800,000 impressions. These slots and impresses are
shared between a maximum of 20 advertisers, resulting in a
campagn that can cost as little as $.08 (8 cents) per 1000
impressions (if you are the only advertiser), or a maximum of
$1.67 per 1000 impressions, if all 20 advertising spots have
been filled.
The newsletter only has 1 main sponsor at the top of the
email. Approximately 250,000 newsletters are sent out each
month.
Why So Cheap?
Well, this we run this
site in our spare time, and we're not looking to make a ton of
money off of it. We want to hook up with 10 – 20 advertisers
that know a good value when they see it. These advertisers
will keep coming back. We don’t have to deal with 100s of
companies, and the advertisers get the benefit knowing only a
limited number of companies will be advertising on www.123aspx.com.
Can I get a discount if I purchase for more than 1
month?
Believe it or not, yes. If you purchase
6mo in advance, you get a 10% discount. This does not apply to
the newsletter, only banner ads.
How large can the images be?
The
banner images must be 468x60 and can only be maximum of 20K
file size. NO FLASH is allowed.
The right column
ads can be 125x125 or 125x140 and can only be a maximum of 15K
file size.
The newsletter text ad can only be a
maximum of 250 characters.
Can I use an animated gif?
Animated graphics will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
We prefer animated graphics that transition slowly from frame to frame;
graphics with repeated flashing will likely not be accepted.
So how does advertising space get
purchased?
First you must email me at advertise@123aspx.com
and check to see if advertising space is available. Just
a simple note with a url to your website, and say "Hi Terri, I
want to advertise on www.123aspx.com do you have any slots for
the top and bottom or right column position available?" will
do. Then, once the ads have been approved, I will provide send
you a secure URL to purchase the advertising spot. And that’s
it.
Can I change out the
image\ads?
Yes, images for your
advertisement can be changed out once per week. The newsletter
text ad can also be changed once per
week.
How large can the images be?
The
banner images must be 468x60 and can only be maximum of 20K
file size. NO FLASH is allowed.
The right column
ads can be 125x125 or 125x140 and can only be a maximum of 15K
file size.
The newsletter text ad can only be a
maximum of 250 characters.
Does www.123aspx.com provide any
type of advertising statistics?
Not at this time.
I have found most customers ended up tracking their click
throughs, so I made this program as simple as possible.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me
at advertise@123aspx.com
Thanks!
