Cost Effective Advertising

There are a few things that I have learned very quickly in the world of blogging, and one thing is for sure… Not many people want to spend money on advertising. It’s true, and to be honest, I don’t either!

But, I have learned that there are a few places on the Internet where it is actually worth the money to pay for advertising. And to be quite frank, I would safely bet that I am probably one of the cheapest and tightest bloggers with my money in the blogosphere. Now having that all said, I want to tell you about an advertisement program that I have created. My program is called, Top Page Ads (aka The Site Supporter Program) and it is designed to give you the most “bang” for your advertising dollar. I wouldn’t have created it if I didn’t feel that it was effective. And if someone else had launched the exact same program, I would have honestly listed around 10 or so of my blogs immediately.

top-page-ads-2The Top Page Ads program is quite simple. I take your avatar from MyBlogLog or BlogCatalog copy it and upload it to my server. From there I display it on the VERY TOP of EVERY PAGE within my entire blog, and point a link direct to your web site or blog. I have made the Top Page Ads section one of the FIRST things anyone sees when they visit my site or individual post pages.

My blog traffic is very diverse and that is my goal. I have tons of regular reader traffic coming direct to my home page and I have tons of search engine traffic coming direct to my individual post pages. Everything is spot on and running according to plan.

Do you want to advertise dirt cheap and get the most BANG for you advertisement dollar? My Top Page Ads program is only $5 dollars per month. And for a very limited time only, you can sign up now and immediately advertise FREE and pay NOTHING the first month. 30 Days free, you pay NOTHING for one month. No contracts to sign. Cancel anytime.

buy-me-a-beerThere is a very popular Wordpress Plugin called, Buy Me A Beer. It puzzles me why so many people are willing to “Buy People Beer and Coffee” and not expect just a little something back in return. Yes, people donate to blog authors to reward them for publishing great content… and I love that. Just as the picture shows you here, I have donated money to other contributing authors, up to $10 dollars at times. But wouldn’t it be nice if the person donating the money got rewarded as well? And that is where my Top Page Ads program is different. I want readers and advertisers to help support me by throwing a few dollars my way. But, I also want to provide a reward system for doing this. My Top Page Ads program allows me to accept very small donations but it also has an awesome “Reward System” for the people that donate to me.

Instead of buying me a beer or coffee, buy yourself an awesome spot on Garry Conn dot Com and help support my writing efforts, while at the same time support yourself by having something extremely powerful to show for your donation!

  • Your Avatar with direct link to your blog on the top of every page.
  • First month is totally free!
  • Only $5 dollars per month there after.
  • No Contracts to sign. Cancel anytime!

The top paged ads look interesting. Do you have any stats on outgoing clicks on those ads? I am curious if they are better or worse then a text link.

great idea garry,
but I just wanted to comment again here to tell you that I preferred your old layout to this one.
this looks less unique then your old one.
also, I revamped my page according to your feedback months ago. more navigation for people and more choices.

Garry, this is a great idea and I just ‘bought’ the first free month. :-) Of course, I will send you the $5 bucks for the second month soon.

Thanks man. I have confirmed your order. You don’t have to worry about sending me money, this will be done automatically. Paypal.com is very cool. They offer people to create subscription services. You are all set. The subscription is $5 dollars per month and I have it set up to extend the first month for free. There is nothing to do or nothing to have to remember. When you don’t want you avatar displayed on the Top Page Ads section anymore, you simply cancel the subscription.

It is good that you got in when you did. People that lock in on the $5 dollar per month subscription are locked in at that rate. Meaning, if I bump the price higher (which I intend to do) everyone that has already signed up at the $5 dollar rate, STAY at the $5 dollar rate.

In other words, let say…. a year from now, if it cost $100 dollars to be listed in the Top Page Ads section… if you already locked in at a lower rate (in your case… $5 dollars!), you stay at that lower rate until you cancel while new advertisers pay the current rate.

Long story short… “Get in NOW while its cheap!” and you did. I welcome many more people to lock in on the $5 dollar rate.

Best Regards,
Garry Conn

Top page ads is a great way of advertising. Liked the concept.
