Gotmead

GotMead.com provides the opportunity for meaderies, mead equipment and materials suppliers, honey suppliers and other mead-related shops and businesses to take advantage of the 70,000+ unique visitors that come to the site every month. I strive to provide a fun, informative site to my visitors. The forums are continually active, and have over 30,000 posts. You can even post your job opportunities there for free! Advertising opportunities on GotMead are as follows: Site-wide Ad Rotation - Depending on quality of your advertising material (quality of the banner and text link) we can show between 75,000 and 90,000 visitors a month your ad, on over 1200 pages of relevant content. And, since we rank #1 or #2 for the word 'mead' in both Google and Yahoo (depending on the day), your ad on our site raises your search engine ranking. For this we charge a flat rate per 1,000 impressions (how many times your ad is shown). Even though we do not charge you for each click, but it would useful for you to know that the average cost per click rate for mead-related keywords on the pay-per-click engines is $0.69 - $1.04 per click. Google AdWords says that if you bid for a top position, it would cost you $1.04 per click, and cost you between $80 - $140 per DAY (as of April 11, 2006). You can get exposed to a *targeted audience* of mead lovers for between $10.00 and $40.00 per 1000 impressions on Gotmead! One more thing to mention. If we get more traffic - you get more traffic. We won't raise the price on you if you've got a contract with us. You won't get that from the pay-per-click engines! If you pay for listing on pay per click search engines in order to get some traffic then you really should take a look at our advertising options. You can get a lot more targeted traffic for less money. Remember, our visitors come here for one thing: to learn more about mead. Last but not least: If we do not deliver a satisfactory level of traffic to you we will run your advertisement for free for a month. If you pay for your traffic anyway why not pay less! If you don't, why not give it a try, and get people to your site? With over 1200 pages of data that grows daily, and the largest mead forum on the internet, GotMead delivers quality content to get and keep visitors, and you will get seen! If needed, we can even help you design the ad for a small fee. Ads must be 468x60 pixels for the top banner or the forum banners, and 120 x 600 for the right-side tower ad, preferably in JPG or GIF format. Animated GIFs are also acceptable. Please keep the kb size small, so the site won't load slow. We will track your impressions, clicks, and view-to-click ratio, so you can see what you're getting for your money, and you can retire or suspend your ad at any time. You will have a control panel that lets you track your ads, change your banners, check your statistics and more.
