Benefits of Sponsorship
We offer two attractive options (shown in the examples above), our Banner Sponsorships will appear above Button Sponsorships in all listings (free rotation for one month at the top of Pathways Directory pages is included with a banner sponsorship of 12 months). The banners appear directly above your listing on every page that your listing appears on (including searched terms). Your site is also listed in Bold lettering highlighted with a yellow background. Note that when searches are performed that Sponsor sites (and your banner) appear before free listings in a special Sponsor sites section AS WELL AS in the normal listings. Your banner appears both in this section, and later on in the page where your actual listing occurs, for an example click here to see how The Dreamtime Banner Sponsorship appears on this search page (search terms: 'dreamtime'), or here to see how our Banner appears under a category listing.
Our buttons appear directly above your listing on every page that your listing appears on (including searched terms). Your site is also listed in Bold lettering highlighted with a yellow background. Note that when searches are performed Sponsor sites (and your button) appear before free listings (but after Banner listings) in a special Sponsor sites section AS WELL AS in the normal listings (again below Banner listings). Your banner appears both in this section, and later on in the page where your actual listing occurs. (See the link above for an example search and how your Sponsor banner/button appears before the free listings).
More Benefits of Sponsorship
Our banner sponsorship can provide you with a larger image, and free ad rotation for 1 (one) month at the top of the search pages (with a 12 month banner sponsorship), and this may attract more clicks for your site. Our button sponsorships will provide you with nearly the same benefits (but without the free 1 (one) month of ad rotation) at a great price.
All banners and buttons are served from The Dreamtime website to guarantee a faster loading time. The banner rotations are rotated at random so that your banner will receive a wide exposure over many search sections. This has shown to attract a larger audience for you and hopefully a better click through rate.
Rate Card
We offer 6 month and 1 year sponsorships. We start our sponsorships on ANY day of the Month, they will expire in (182 days for 6 month contract and 365 days for a 1 year contract). if you purchase a Banner Sponsorship for 12 months, you will also receive free ad rotation at the top of the search pages where your banner will appear in rotation with other ads for 32 days (a 1 month contract).
