Selling Advertising on Your Web Site:

Once you’ve built your site and you begin to have significant numbers of visitors, you can consider selling advertising space on your web site. On the web, the best place for a company to advertise is on a site with good content, loyal return visitors, and high visibility.

Most sites will reach this potential within a year with consistent attention to detail, but in some cases, you may be able to start selling ads now.

The best example of a site that might sell advertising right away is a directory site in a specific region. You might also sell advertising if you are working with television and radio ads, referring people to visit your site. That is going to create traffic, and it makes sense for others to “piggyback” on your marketing efforts and buy ads from you.

If you have an interest in selling advertising, talk with your webmaster about this revenue stream, and get some help getting creative on possible advertising campaigns you can make available on your web site.

Over time, your web site will begin to generate large numbers of visitors if you are following all of the steps in this e-book. A site a year or more older will naturally attract advertisers, and you will begin to get email inquiries from others, asking for your rates.

It’s a good idea to plan early, decide on some ad rates so you’ll be ready, and implement a banner ad management system with your webmaster.
