Was just having a discussion with a member concerning banner advertising statistics and I thought I would share what I found...

Well, I guess this site is doing pretty well bringing eyes to advertisers. I just checked the stats on my FaunaAds site and found the following:

For the 120 x 600 vertical banner in the right hand column, each advertiser there is averaging 5,000 views per day, which means 150,000 views per month, 1.8 MILLION views per year.

For the 120 x 60 sponsor ads right below the vertical banner, those advertisers are getting an average of 85,000 views per day, which comes to 2.5 MILLION views per month, 30 MILLION views per year.

And they are visible EVERYWHERE on this site....

All for just 50 cents per day, $15 per month (30 days), $182.50 per year (365 days).

I don't know for certain, but that sure sounds like a real deal to me.... :shrug01:
 
I don't consider views when choosing to advertise, only click through rate. If no one is clicking (or blocks them entirely), views don't do you any good.

Yeah, but the more views you get, the more likely it is that you will get clicks. The views HAVE to come before the clicks. I'm providing the eyes. YOU have to provide the advertising attractive enough to encourage the clicks. :D
 
Does that mean I can use topless girls on my banner here?

that should more than encourage the guys to click :D

I've already got some shots of an albino boa and some... well... you know that will make your head spin.

Never had anyone try that here, which actually does surprise me. Yeah, it would likely get people to your site, but not sure what staying power your site would have once they got there if that was the carrot being used... They sure were going there to look at snakes..... ;)
 
who say's I couldnt dangle more thruout the site :D and you didn't answer the question. You must be part politician. ;)
