Banner advertising now is available for businesses that would like to reach the Horses of the West readers. These ads are ideal for businesses who sell their products or services to horse people anywhere. Unlike our horses for sale advertising, this advertising is not limited to companies located in the Northern Great Plains. Because this site serves advertisers in our region and promotes itself using advertising aim primarily at the US and Canada but covering the world, companies purchasing our banner advertising will have wide exposure. In January 2011 our site had visitors from 20 countries, including Brazil, Australia and several European countries.
Currently, we offer 125 pixel square ads in the sidebars.
The ads are set to rotate randomly in up to 6 visible spots. No more than 18 spots are sold at a time so your ad will appear once every three page impressions on average.
Each of the four sections of the site are available for advertising: Horses for Sale, Breeders & Trainers, News, Articles, & Classifieds, and Artists & Authors. Your ad will appear on the section of our choice. This will allow you to focus on the section of the site most relevant to your product or service.
As a bonus, all ads will rotate on the sidebar of the home page and it’s related pages (such as this one.) No promises are made about how frequently an ad will appear on the home page since that will depend on the total number of ads sold in all the other sections.
Pricing
Banner ads are $75 each and run for 2 months in their requested section; an annual spot is $300. To place a banner ad, please email your 125 x 125 pixel banner ad, your website address and your contact information to ads@horsesof thewest.com. We accept checks and paypal for payment and will contact you with that information.
