Why Pixel Advertising?
Pixels are the smallest unit of real-estate
on the web. Every page on the web is made up of millions of them and prime
advertising space is going to waste. We decided to maximize that space.
The technical term for pixel is picture
element, a pixel is a single point in a graphic image. Graphics monitors
display pictures by dividing the display screen into thousands (or millions)
of pixels, arranged in rows and columns. The pixels are so close together
that they appear connected and now that we have the boring definition out
of the way, let's move on to the more interesting questions and answers...
Q: Is this a new idea?
A: Heck no. No idea is truly new.
Most are just variations of existing ideas. Many years ago a famous person
once said, "There is nothing new under the sun."
Q: Is this type of advertising
effective?
A: You bet it is! Any time you can
pay a one time fee and get your ad on the web for life, it's a good deal.
It becomes great when thousands of people advertise on a site like this
and link to it. This generates huge traffic that benefits all advertisers.
Plus most people are genuinely fascinated by these small image ads and
want to know who the advertisers are. This results in a lot of clicks.
Q: Why will this site work when
others don't?
A: We have been online 9 years and
have developed a number of strategic partners who will help us promote
this site. Add to this a potent blog, plus numerous other websites and
domains that SterlingDavenport.com owns that will be pointing here, and
it all adds up to mass exposure for all our advertisers.
Q: How long will my ad stay on
the web?
A: Your ad stays up as long as my
website SterlingDavenport.com stays up and under my control. But even if
they only stay around for 5-8 years, that is still a ton of exposure for
a one time small fee.
Q: Do you offer refunds?
A: No. Once your image and link
are added to the website they are there for life. If you need your image
and website removed at some point in the future, we can do that but there
no refunds will be given.
Q: Can I change my URL or mouse
over text?
A: No. Once the site is live and
your image has been placed on it, you will not be able to make changes
on it so please choose your image and text very carefully.
Q: Can my site be taken down?
A: The only reason we will take
your site down is if your site violates our terms of service or is deemed
to be illegal. This will be determined by the owner of SterlingDavenport.com
and is in our sole discretion. If your site is taken down due to a violation,
you will be given the opportunity to submit a new url, image and description,
but no refunds will be due.
Q: How long will it take to get
my site online?
A: We will make every effort to
place your pixel ad on the site within 48 hours, provide your payment has
been received and has cleared into our account and, you have submitted
a correctly sized image. We cannot be responsible if delays occur due to
a mass of orders coming in at one time. We will place all ads in the order
they are received.
