Wisdump 2007 Ad Project

Yesterday I did a recap of the 2006 Sponsorship year on Wisdump and some of the things that I have learned and today I promised to offer the details for sponsoring this site throughout the year 2007. It’s quite simple.

  • $2000 gets you placement for a full year. That breaks down to $166.67 a month and $5.47 a day.
  • Monthly reports on how your ads are doing in comparison to others and suggestions on what can be improved.
  • A minimum of 15 entries a month, excluding short blurb hits. If you know this site you know it is not known for five entries on a daily basis, that has never been my style and although I have attempted it, I feel the site just works better when I write something when it hits my mind. Nothing forced.
  • Site will launch with a new design for 2007 and this design will change 2-3 during the year for both experimentation and freshness.
  • Articles about your products and services. Depending on what your product is it might be a good article or it might be a constructive one, but you don’t have to go about asking for a charity writeup, just ask me what you want and I will have a look at it. Just keep in mind that I’m always fair with my opinions.
  • The types of ads will change over the course of the year. Could be text or could be graphical, but changes will be made to keep things fresh along with the design.
  • If you have more than one product you can take up two slots or you can simply rotate them out throughout the year. This is an active participation sponsorship.

What I ask of my sponsors is simple.

  • Be active with your creatives. If I’m going to offer suggestions on how to improve it would be nice to see you take the time and care to try these things out so that you may benefit as well. I’m not looking for someone to slap an ad on my site and be done with it for the year.
  • Throw suggestions my way, if you think something could be done better let me know. I will listen, but that doesn’t mean I will act on it ;-).

Shortly I will be writing on FastCompany and with 9rules constantly growing this site only seems to continue to progress. I will be limiting the ad slots to 10 sponsors so don’t assume this is everyone gets a chance type of thing. Maybe only two people will find it worth their time to participate or 22, I can’t guarantee anything.

If you are looking for the numbers (all sponsors usually are) then just shoot me an email if you have a genuine interest in this (scrivs{AT}9rules.com). Also if you are interested in advertising on 9rules or ScrivsTyme feel free to drop me an email.
