Ok, looking for a site sponsor / sponsors

Cheers guys for all of the suggestions and ideas that you came up with on my post earlier this week about monetarising my site.

I love the idea of the subscription to a secret behind the scenes world of DaveN, but this will need some thought to provide the best value for money to the members… plus some extra coding.

In the mean time I am going to ditch the adsense and offer up the real estate on my site for sale to any willing sponsors. This will be on a monthly basis, on a highest bid basis.. The space can either be sold off in one lump or in upto 4 slots.

So if anyone wants to use part of my site for their own self promotion then get in touch

    Might be an idea to stick a link up showing your traffic, and stats for browsers…

    A pricing breakdown and ad type breakdown would be good too. Give a a shout after that…

    (Just to clear up the last point, if someone comes along and bids 50k for the single ad, that’s gonna annoy a lot of people. Could you state definitively which it’ll be, or is it highest bidder chooses?)

    just curious - why not move to a forum and maybe like Quads u believe in charging but

    Your in SEO and place an ad on your site who will want to advertise! (i mean quality versus interest) I can think of a few comps but is it really worth it it

    Sell off some spots if you think its worth it but are times really that hard

    Your blog is popular down to you at the end of the day, next (and I know he is a friend) you will be printing t shirts

    So either have a blog or charge for a forum

    But at best dont throw some crappy ads up if not £ necessary

    Personaly I dont think it makes any real sense but hey its not my site

    Dave I can do your members area, I have two spare licenses for amember (you are welcome to one for free). Me thinks you wouldn’t have trouble putitng up a tip a week for $5 a month. All PayPal automated…

    >> remo, I think Dave just wants a few quid from the blog, we know he could shift to a forum, he could even offer home delivery, at the end of the day its just like sticking a dirty penny in some coke. its not really of value, but it sure looks pretty when your done.

    you’re best bet for making money off your site is to sell your own products and services

    SEOidiot, I think you should save that fiver for some happy pills and baldness cure ;)

    I’d like to buy a spot…. and link to one of my competitors. ;-)

    I’m poor, and probably not too targeted to my sites, but sounds like a great plan. Best to take advantage of some of this traffic. Good luck, and I hope you start a bidding war.

    Hi DAVEN , i’m very interested in your offer, but could find any direct contacts on your blog. Email me please your contacts to discuss sponsorship.

  13. 13. Monty Loree | November 19th 2006 @ 8:51 pm

    It just begs the question…
    What are the demographics of your site. :)

    IMO, your site would be well suited to current readers and website marketers.

    Monetarise my website that is in English.

    My name is Jeanette Michelle and I’m an looking for a sponsor to sponsor my website and upcoming talk show. I’ve written and published 2 books and want to be a spokes person for people like myself that are independent writers

    I look forward to talking to someone soon. It’s very difficult when you’re and independent writer. I’m really searching for someone that is willing to be a sponsor for us. I believe wes should be recognized like any other writer, but every looks down on us as if we were homeless peasants

    Thanking you in advance for your time and consideration toward this matter of importance.

    Hi all, seem like we all have the same problem,is it because the net is so big and finding the right answers is really hard,im in the same boat as you all aswel so if theres any sponsor’s out there wishing to place a advert on my site then please contact me. Google adsense will be taken over by sponsor’s as i dont think it does any justicem to make income online
