What do I charge for full page ad on PR 4 site?

    I have been approached by a contextually relevant site who wants to create a full page ad to be (approved and) posted on my site.

    My site is PR4 and we are on page one for 2 extremely competitive keywords that are also relevant to the ad, but obviously this new page won't have PR.

    Since this is an advertisement, I need to create a fee schedule for this. I welcome any advice and comments, including if you think this is a bad idea.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    How many uv is (Unique Visitors) does your site get?

    The number of people that see your site each day will make a big difference on the price.

    a pr4 with 10k-15k UV is good to hear
    but, to suggest you the cost for ADs require more details

    The basic would be the website theme.
    If you have a proxy website with the stated traffic then its gonna be different from that of a website that sells physical products.

    So the more detail the more appropriate suggestions you get.

    I am not telling you to post your URL:)

The page that they will be getting will the internal link to the page they get stay on the the ft page of you site on going, or will move in to past post like wordpress after new post are made? Also how many out going link will be on the page, just theirs or others as in footer or sidebar?

    It's not a blog. It's a website that sells educational software. We move around on page 1 for that keyword and our sales are growing very steadily.

    We have tried to make a content rich site, with over 650 item pages, new content added every few days and dozens of article pages. We have some links pages with links grouped by topic relevancy. We also publish and email a newsletter that is hosted on its own domain.

    We haven't discussed specifics of where the ad page would be in relation to the front page. I'm sure there will have to be a link on a prominent page to the ad page.

    I think that's all I can add, but please keep the questions coming. I appreciate your willingness to help.

    Hi,

    Have you talked long term or just a few mo? Short term I would charge a lot more for.

    Think contract on your side and that gives you income every mo.

    I would probably just concentrate on selling some links on your PR 4 pages.
    That is essentially what is going to be the worthiness for the buyer anyway.
    A site getting 20K a month doesn't equate to a stand-alone page linked from there.
    When it is new, it isn't worth anything to anyone and will get no organic traffic.
    Look at the Adsense CTR's.
    That link won't get a heck of a lot more than that from your PR 4.

    Now, if you were to do serious SEO and promotional work on that full page ad.....it would be worth discussing with the buyer a business plan.
