Sidebar Ads and Blog Features Available for 2014 I've been blogging since 2001 (high fives to the early LiveJournalers out there), whenever something in my life begged me to write about it. My blog fever hit full force in May 2010 and hasn't broken. Since then, I've been updating several times a week and my glow has attracted quite a following that believe in fairies, too. I offer several advertising opportunities for those creative souls that wish to share their magic with my followers. Top Sidebar Ad The 300x250 space just below my welcome message is above the fold and grabs the most attention. Several advertisers occupy one spot by paying for impressions instead of a monthly basis. Cost is $10/5,000 impressions. Each ad is capped per user so the same reader won't see it more than 3 times a day. That way the advertiser doesn't have to worry about wasting impressions on uninterested viewers. Blog Sponsorships The 125x125 sponsor button may be smaller and lower on the page than the above option, but it includes whimsical ramblings about the advertiser by yours truly. The ads appear in order that they were bought, but for every month that an ad runs, it gets moved back up to the top. For an estimation on how many impressions they receive, you can view my traffic stats for the last 30 days through Project Wonderful. Each sponsor gets a one time short and sweet introduction entry on my blog, encouraging my readers to Branch Out to that shop. Given that the zombie apocalypse isn't near, the feature will stay up long after the advertisement has expired and continue to build views and SEO. Each post includes a paragraph about the shop, a quote from the seller, a banner and an Etsy Mini. If you're advertising a website other than an Etsy shop, I'll substitute the Etsy Mini for another image or slideshow that you provide. I only post one a week, so your feature may not run until a few weeks after initial payment. Any sponsor that advertises for more than a month will have a shop listing included in a shared Friday finds feature once a month. Buy An AdAds cost $10/month or $25/3 months. Ad requirements are 125x125 pixels, jpg or gif format and may not be bigger than 30kb. If you don't have an ad of your own, I can design one for an extra $5. Design package includes up to three rotating frames of your choice, like my example to the right. I will contact you with what images and text you'd like to use, send you an ad proof, and you'll get one chance to change anything. Once approved, the ad cannot be changed without an additional fee. As the blog sponsor option requires me writing about products, please contact me first using the form below to introduce yourself! If your items mesh with my handmade blog, I will send you an invoice. I am also open to writing reviews, so intrigue me with me an offer.
