Rates Effective 2/15/2010

Currently we offer two ad sizes and locations on LouisvilleHotBytes.com:

  • A “leaderboard” ad above the logo, on both our review site and our forums (See placement at top of page, above): $20 / CPM
  • A “skyscraper” that runs along the right-hand side of the forum pages (View here.): $30 / CPM

“CPM” means “cost per 1,000 impressions.” An impression is created everytime a visitor comes to a web page and your banner ad is presented on that page. We have an ad server that counts the number of impressions each day that are being served on each ad, so we can know exactly how many impressions your ad is getting — that is, how many times it’s appearing on a web page each time a visitor comes to it.

Each 1,000-impressions is a UNIT. You can buy as many UNITS as you want (so long as we have impressions available that have not already been purchased by another advertiser). We will continue to sell ad space in any location until we have sold the full number of impressions available for that ad space. For example, if you want to run a leaderboard ad across the site and the forums, at the top, you could purchase one UNIT (1,000 impressions) for $20. Your ad would likely run for just a little while — less than a day.

How many UNITS do you want to buy?

If you want your ad to display a total of 5,000 times, you will be purchasing 5 UNITS. Put “5” in the UNITS box when you place your order below. If you want your ad to display a total of 100,000 times, you will be purchasing 100 UNITS. Put “100” in the UNITS box when you place your order below. Then click the “Add to Cart” button to be taken to our Shopping Cart. (You can always change your order there.)

MAY WE SUGGEST…

A minimum purchase of 10 UNITS per month?
We will contact you once your order is placed
to determine how you want to “spread out” your impressions
— over a month or several months.
