Donate a Prize to Advertise
Oilogosphere.com is the fastest growing Oilers website and already one of the most popular Oilers blogs online. We would like to offer advertising to those who have a product they are willing to donate. This gift will be awarded to the Most Valuable Blogger of the month (we are looking for a gift with a minimum value of $120). As our sponsor we will place your advertisement in the most prime locations of the site (see ad box directly to your right), we will tweet our sponsor through @TheOilogosphere twitter account, and post a message on our Facebook account from time to time. That's not all, we also have a dedicated page giving detailed information on what you wish to advertise. This is a fantastic way to help your business or specific product get noticed.
Banner and Box Ads
Our competitors will often charge by the following:
CPM: CPM is "cost per thousand" ad impressions, an industry standard measure for selling ads on Web sites. This measure is taken from print advertising. The "M" is taken from the Roman numeral for "thousand." Once your ad campaign hits the targeted number you paid for the ad will no longer appear.
Pay-Per-Click: In pay-per-click advertising, the advertiser pays a certain amount for each clickthrough to the advertiser's Web site. For example: each time a viewer clicks your advertisement you, as the advertiser, will be charged. A clickthrough is what is counted by the sponsoring site as a result of an ad click.
WE DO NOT CHARGE BY CPM OR CLICKTHROUGH
At Oilogosphere you will receive the most bang for your buck. Advertisements are based on a monthly upfront fee. Oilogosphere offers unlimited clickthrough and impressions. We do not limit your advertisement by restricting your ad to CPM and Clickthrough rates. You pay for it to stay.
