When you see a NEW program banner on the daily webmaster boards that you visit (GFY, AWI, etc.), how often do you click it to find out what it's about? Does your curiosity get you everytime? Some of the time? Do you not click it at all?

I never ever click on the banners, unless it's something I haven't heard of (which is unlikely, cuz most of those programs get their 'announcements' out anyway).
Or I check it, if a content/hosting/etc. provider offers specials.
But I guess that's cuz I spend so much time here. I bet the lurkers (bet there's more of em than we can dream of) click those banners like crazy, that's why advertizing is rather expensive here on GFY.

hrmmm, I was seriously considering buying a banner on one of the webmaster boards (not mentioning names). Though it does appear that the majority of people do click, the sample is really way too small to be definitive.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

Yeah, I am considering purchasing some spots on the boards in the future. From the research I've done so far, I would venture to say that print advertising in AVN magazine or Klixxx is the best way to spend your advertising dollar if you are trying to build a brand, although I don't think there is any real way to find out exactly how effective it is. Their expensive, but worth a shot I think.Originally posted by originalheather

Sigs are more effective. I click on banners every ow and then but I normally have just about everybody in my bookmarks somewhere. Banners are useful for making program announcements so they are worth the cost depending on what you are promoting.
Banners I remember, Epochs last 2, Adult Platinum, WEG Cash head, OxCashI've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

i click banners when i see sometihng new and i don't like this new rule:
1/1/2003: if your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 468x60 instead of a 120x60.
it will turn the board to a real banner farm this time.
I say we all start wearing banners to protest. What do you think?

as i'm pretty new to this board i clicked "ePassporte" banner so far just to see if it was the same url that i had...
sigs are more effective - what if gfy randomly modified your signature (let's say every 10th time) - would you agree?don't even think about itComment
