    I have two banner spots for sale. I can sell some for the MAIN PAGE and some for the forums. I have 4 to sell onthe mainpage and about 15 or so to sell on the forums.

    Forum banners must be 360x100. Homepage banners must be 950x110. It may be smaller / a bit bigger.

    Banners on homepage will be on rotation. I am selling only 4 and two more will be mine. There will be 6 in total on rotation.

    On the forums, there will be one banner on each forum and 4 on the forumhome header.

    Specify which forum board you wish to have your banner displayed on when posting.

    $25 USD / month for main page and $20 USD a month for forums.

    A one-time fee is available to have your banners on my website for a reasonable / cheap price :].

    Those who wish to full monopoly for ads on my site can PM me as well.

    Absolutely. The stats were a bit down near the end of December to February because of our RPG System / Game was down. It's back up in March and as you can see the stats shot right back up- there's no scheduled downtime for our RPG / Game now.

    Trunks, could you tell me what your demographic is? And would it be okay to change banners if one that we have on is not doing as well as expected?

    Absolutely. I'm fine with all sorts of changes to the banner and such. You can switch banners whenever- just PM me the URL. If you'd like, you can host it on your own website and change it whenever you want.

    As long as there's no Pornography, Illegal Activities (Selling Currency of the Game Maplestory) and the such.

    I'm not 100% sure what you mean by demographic- but if it's the statistics of users:

    We're a Community made up of players of the game Maplestory. It's mainly a Maplestory guild, but a lot of users have quit and still come to our forum. It's turned into a community for everyone. About 100 people visit the forums a day and we get about 100 - 200~ posts a day. Maybe less, maybe more. There's around 6,000 users (Maybe 300 - 400 or so active, a few lurkers and the such. The lurkers / those who sometimes come to the forums are those involved with the guild in-game.) and guests.

    There are people from the ages of 14 - 30+ on the forum. It's pretty much just everyone. I have no feeling to just stop expanding the forum and there should be a lot more users coming soon with some new things added- such as another RPG System, Points for posting etc.

    I will also create announcements saying to click the ads once in a while and the such. If your website is interesting to my users, I'll create more announcements and such :].

    Support will be given whenever you have questions and the such.

    You just copied a question I answered :p. Most people go from the Website -> Forum -> RPG. The RPG is located on the forum.

    This is a re-created thread for the THIRD Time. I created two threads to learn more about how it works and what people expect from their banners. This way, I've answered all questions and hopefully I can get some sales off the bat.

    I'm selling banner ads on my website for $10 a month. This is an YEARLY pay which will come up to around $120 total. However, I'm giving a $20 discount to all DP Members. The total cost will then come up to $100 a year which is around ~$8.33 a month.

    This is again, a year fee. You will pay for a year's worth. I am only selling this to the first 3 people Again, this is a limited time offer.

    Your ad will display in about 5 or 6 places.

    1. Your ad will rotate in the mainpage on www.knightsofmaple.com. It will rotate with ONLY THREE OTHER ADS! There will be four ads in total on the main page.

    2. Your ad will rotate on the Mainpage of the forums! www.knightsofmaple.com/forum. It will rotate with ONLY THREE OTHER ADS! There will be four ads in total on the forumhome.

    3. Your ad will be the ONLY ad displaying on 4 forums. There are a total of about 12 forums. Maybe more (Free advertising for the rest :p).

    4. BONUS: Your ad will go on pages on www.flowsion.net- a very popular website for kids at school. There's no statistics- just a lot of people join.

    Statistics!

We update the site constantly. The forums are very active as well and there's a link from the mainpage so they click that then go to the RPG.
