Advertising in the Cigar Banner Exchange


Details

The Cigar Banner Exchange is a network of thousands of Cigar web sites of all different types, this network also contains Dinning, Liquor and Wine & Spirit web sites. These sites typically cater to Cigar smokers, naturally making them a targeted audience. Advertising for the Cigar Banner Exchange is simple and inexpensive. In fact, you can start with as little as $10.

We offer two types of paid advertising: impressions and click-throughs. Impressions are simply banner displays. When you see a banner on a web site, that is called a banner "display" or "impression." If you bought 10,000 banner impressions, your banner would be displayed 10,000 times. Click-throughs are actual "clicks" on your banner. By purchasing click-throughs, you are buying guaranteed visitors to your site. Purchase 100 click-throughs, and your banner will will be displayed until 100 visitors have come to your site as a result of the banner being displayed.

You can choose target audiences from our list of over 30 categories. That way, you can specifically target your ad to more effectively reach potential customers. Suppose you sell a Cigar humidors. You can target sites that you think would include potential customers (online cigar stores, wholesalers, retail stores) and exclude categories that you think will not be effective (pipes, collectibles, wine & spirits, etc.).

Other aspects of our targeting system include the ability to target days of the week and hours of the day. This give you incredible control over how your banner is displayed across our network. You can divide up how you would like your credits to be used, and can set up unlimited banners in unlimited banner accounts, for maximum customization. Plus, our real-time graphical stats allow you to track your ad campaigns with incredible detail.
