We have a variety of advertising products including run of site banner and text ads, and a directory. Our run of site banner and text ads are paid per click. Meaning you only pay for actual clicks. We have a monitoring system available. You'll be set up with your own account and be able to see how your advertisements are doing. It gives the total number of clicks, the number of times your advertisement has been viewed, and the click through rate. If you decide to run several ads, you'll be able to see the stats for each ad. These ads run on the Eclectic Homeschool Online at http://eclectichomeschool.org and EHO Lite at http://eho.org You cannot choose to run the ad on only one of these sites. Our banner ads are available for $0.65 per click. Our text ads are available for $0.50 per click. We find that text ads are a better buy because they often have a better click through rate and they are cheaper. Many people ignore banner images, while text catches their eye. We also have a directory with free basic listings or paid deluxe listings. A deluxe listing allows placement in three directory categories.
We also will make ad placements in our newsletter. We currently have 2045 subscribers. A newsletter ad consists of a 75-word advertisement and accompanying link. $30.00 per newsletter. We publish newsletters twice a month on the 1st and 15th. Newsletter ads must be available five days prior to publication.
You can pay for advertising at EHO through PayPal. http://eclectichomeschool.org/info/advertising_payments.htm To learn more about advertising specs, rates, and to see our site stats (we averaged 82024 visits and 300,000 pages a month in 2006), visit our Rates Page.
