Advertising at Etherscan

[OmegaStarScream]

I was thinking about advertising a product that I'm currently creating and wanted to know what is the best place to do it? (excluding the forums).

I know that CoinMarketCap asks for a lot so I thought about giving Etherscan.io a go but apparently, the price is not disclosed until they agree to put your ad so, does anyone have an idea about the pricing?

I think it depends on the traffic if they can make 500 daily visitors you should pay around 50$ to 100$ USD per month this is just what I heard before from marketing forum.

Better to check their daily traffic if they can give more information about the daily or monthly traffic you can calculate how much you can pay to advertise your site.

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, they'll only tell you what you have to pay until they actually put your add online? Pretty weird way of doing business to be honest. Never seen or heard that before.

They should be able to tell you what you have to pay for ad slots before actually accepting the deal. Anyway, I had a look at Reddit, and it really seems that no one is able to know what they charge for their ad slots.

The only thing they say is that you have to contact them at https://etherscan.io/contactus

Are you planning to spend a whole lot of budget on just one place? If not, I'd recommend you to have a look here:

I'm not sure if the "Advertising Offers" section at eMoneySpace, provided above, is still as cost-effective as it used to be in 2015, but it's worth it to give it a try. A hell lot of cheap advertising offers are still available there, and most of them are GPT (get-paid-to) focused, which indirectly means that they'd be interested in crypto.

You may also give AdHitz.com a try.

I have never seen a sole product advertised there or I just missed those? Overall, ads there are purely related to ICO or something.

... the price is not disclosed until they agree to put your ad so, does anyone have an idea about the pricing?

Im sure I discussed the same topic before but it's now difficult to search.

Anyways, just try hitting that form because you already have the details to be filled up there. Im sure you have an option to refused if the pricing didn't meet your criteria even they agreed to placed your ads.

Alternative ways are to pay for a slot on one of them newsletters or pay for a PR campaign (you push out a press release and it gets published across all those major news sites).

The former gets you quite a lot of views and readers, the latter probably less so, but actually with the market in this downtrend, there are far fewer projects advertising this way than they were  months ago, so you might actually get higher visibility now.

Signature campaigns with good members? That's really good visibility for active forum users (who are, presumably who you want to target).

What I have understand is, etherscan would not disclose their price until they're finish to evaluate some advertisement request since they asked depends on how long your advert will be, what webpage(I guess this also matters)

Expect it will be costly if its a fixed pay per day or weekly, etc. not through CPC. But I'm sure you will get more visibility now like buwaytress explained..

I've never seen them advertising anything besides ICOs before as well but I assumed It's because that's what the majority of people do now, I doubt they'll deny my application just because of that.

Have any links where I could start when it comes to the newsletters/press releases?

The product is not really going to be profitable and It will also be open source so I'm not sure I could keep up with a signature campaign.
