@Michael responded to me but it took a while. Here is what he wrote me:
“Please understand that being a sponsor of AGN not only grants you a voice to create "Ads" whenever you like, but also provides valuable impressions. Impressions are proven to create long-term memories.
Impressions on AGN can be achieved through your banner and your Ads.
Banner Airgun Nation is home to 10 large sponsors, and 37 small sponsors. Banners are randomized with each page refresh. Banners are displayed on the Homepage and in all of the Feeds: (Forum List, Threads, Classifieds, Hot, Questions, and Latest activity).
Ads Our sponsors are allowed to share anything they like within the
Industry News section. The picture and title of your Ad will automatically populate the Industry Direct thumbnail boxes on our home page. The 8 most recent Ads populate this section. This feature is ideal for your "Call to Actions", maintaining a relationship with your customers, and even more impressions.
So while you may get some "click-thru's" from the banner, the largest benefit will be from the "Call-to-Actions" you create within the Industry News forum.
If you'd like to become a sponsor this is what we need to get you started:
- Name of the account you'd like me to create (name of your business).
- Email address associated with the account.
- Link to the site you want viewers to navigate.
- An image for your banner (360x120 pixels in .jpeg or .png format).
- Term - small banners run $133/month.
Let me know if I can answer any questions for you.
Best regards,
-Michael”
