-- Posted by blueriptide55 at 12:52 pm on April 30, 2008 We're thinking of charging advertisers who advertise on our FRONT PAGE according to page loads, and not banner clicks. anyone have any info on this and how much to charge?  i cant find info anywhere! -- Posted by dreamweaver at 12:56 pm on April 30, 2008 Doesn't seem very fair... -- Posted by blueriptide55 at 1:01 pm on April 30, 2008 Quote: from dreamweaver at 12:56 pm on April 30, 2008 Doesn't seem very fair... haha i didnt think so either, but my teammate wants it.  he had the idea of advertisers who had a HUGE banner up, so that everytime a user logs onto the site, they automatically see the banner, and so it automatically counts.   -- Posted by dreamweaver at 1:42 pm on April 30, 2008 You guys should seriously just stick with the traditional way of doing things, and that is pay-per-click. I know you can do it through Google and it's easy (I mean, seriously- that's what LW uses here). -- Posted by allsmiles at 3:52 pm on April 30, 2008 It's called pay-per-impression, and it's quite cheap if you think about it. I worked out by spending £30 on google ads that it'd likely be more cost effective to advertise pay-per-impression, on LW ($25 for 64,000 ad views). £30 got me about 17,000 views and 70 hits. That much would get me almost 150,000 views on LW. -- Posted by rand0mguy at 10:29 pm on April 30, 2008 if you realy wanted to you could create a script in javscript or php to access a database with a table of page visits. or there are some websites that can count page views for you. try googling it -- Posted by bighead1991 at 2:55 am on May 1, 2008 Quote: from dreamweaver at 9:42 pm on April 30, 2008 You guys should seriously just stick with the traditional way of doing things, and that is pay-per-click. I know you can do it through Google and it's easy (I mean, seriously- that's what LW uses here). Google does banners on impressions (page load), so does LiveWire. I don't know what you mean through the traditional way of banners as they do not do that. -- Posted by dreamweaver at 12:29 pm on May 1, 2008 My bad then... that's just the way I've always been told about website advertising.
