Title: Need guidance on selling Post by: film2240 on December 25, 2011, 07:25:34 PM Hi
I wish to see guidance on the following: 1.Selling ad space on my blog for BTC 2.Selling spaces for people to author and contribute to articles on my blog If I wish to follow these options on,what would be the best way to go about it? What rates will advertisers pay me for their ad per month or as a one off fee in BTC? I do this as I wish to fund further developments and improvements to my blog (which may include hiring a developer for certain things or to just improve the site for my readers). I'm new to selling and wish to learn more about this.I saw websites being sold and ad space being sold but how do I go about this? How can I find people who wish to advertise for a fee on my blog? Any guidance or constructive comments (criticism/support) appreciated Thanks :-) Title: Re: Need guidance on selling Post by: Stephen Gornick on December 25, 2011, 08:20:42 PM Along the same lines as Google AdSense is Operation Fabulous:
- http://operationfabulous.com You as a website publisher can list your inventory and advertisers bid for that space.

That sounds good.I originally planned to just ask advertisers to pay a smallish fee (no more than 5BTC per normal ad slot or 15BTC for each Ad that took up half the page) and then host their image with a clickable link to their business but I'll give this a go.I wish to control the content of hte ads and how much I can charge so I can ensure enough income to fund improvements to the blog. I do plan to setup a donation system similar to the one on this forum where donators,VIPS,Platinum members get special ranks and priveleges for specified amounts as I feel that is a good system to follow in addition to the regular donators (0.5BTC rate) Title: Re: Need guidance on selling Post by: film2240 on December 25, 2011, 09:40:20 PM I've set this up quotw a while ago (several months ago) but neither of my 2 websites has been validated and so can't accept bids from advertisers,nor can I see them on my websites and I've yet to see payment from these Ads.Anyway I can get them to validate my sites quicker? As I pasted in their HTML code.
UPDATE:I'm happy to report that my 2nd website has been accepted.Now waiting for the BTC to roll in.My blog still isn't accepted so I'm using a different way to sell ad space (by doing it all myself with image and link method,plus asking people to send me BTC for the Ad slots they're interested in buying from me) without the need for 3rd party sites that have quirks. Title: Re: Need guidance on selling Post by: film2240 on December 26, 2011, 10:32:36 PM UPDATE:I have now created a section on my blog dedicated to selling ad space for anyone whos interested (kinda like this forum).
I'm looking for some interested testers to guide me on the development like pricing and best trading practices. The ad link is:http://film2240.wordpress.com/ads/ This link is public and I need feedback on best pricing and selling practices as I really want to sell some ad spaces to help people who accept bitcoins get a wider audience for their businesses. Title: Re: Need guidance on selling Post by: film2240 on January 10, 2012, 01:29:58 PM Update:After a few weeks of testing,I'm cancelling the use of Operaton Fabulous due to unsatisfactory results.Can another solution and method please be recommended instead(as I just wish to be productive without waiting too long or dealing with complications)?
