FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q:  How many banner ads can we run at a time?
A:  When you buy a rotation, it's best to run at least 3 slightly different graphic designs. People notice them more when the images vary and the copy is fresh.  The banners in your rotation will alternately show up in your "spot".  In this example, you'd get all 3 graphic designs included for the one monthly price quoted in the examples above.

Q:  Do you allow animated GIFs?
A:  Well, ok.  Just don't make them too obnoxious.  If they flash so much that they'd give me a migraine, I would frown on that.

Q:  Can we get ad statistics emailed to us showing number of displays and number of clicks?
A:  Yes.  You can choose weekly or monthly.  What a great way to judge the effectiveness of the ad artwork!

Q:  I didn't see my ad.  What gives?
A:  Hit "refresh" on your browser.  Or change from one "Lot" to the next "Lot".  The ads re-display when you change pages.

Q:  Can I get a discount for paying for a year's worth of ads at once?
A:  Yes, just ask.

Q:  What kind of banner art layout gets the most clicks?
A:  Put a person's face on them.  For some reason, website viewers look them in the eye and click more.  Banners with women on them have gotten 25% more clicks in some cases.  It's a website for car guys... who knew that would happen?
