About Us...


Different.

We believe that internet advertising needs a change. Like a traditional billboard, there should be ownership involved. You as the advertiser know exactly the kind of people you want to reach. You must ask yourself: do you really want an algorithm deciding who gets to see your ad at whatever rate CPM? Since you know your target audience better than anyone on the planet, you decide where your ad goes, and you decide how long it will be there. Long gone are the days when ad spending might be gone in a matter of hours or days depending on the number of pageviews.

Everyday.

Everyday I pass the same billboards on my way home from work. Yeah, the ads are the same. Mercedes ad. Gun Show coming soon. Girl Scout cookies. I can remember each one, and where they are along my travels. Ask anyone, and they can probably tell you what billboards were up on Times Square last time they were there. Why? Because the human brain is associative; it remembers things in relation to other things. On my way home I slowly build a relationship with each ad.

Forgettable.

Why is internet advertising so forgettable? Because it is so random. I can visit the same page 10 times a day and see 10 different ads. Sometimes I will remember an ad that I want to visit. I go back to the place I saw it and its gone. Damn. Refresh, refresh, refresh. So much for targeted advertising.

Philosophy.

Our thought process is different. We believe that advertising will work a lot better if ads stay in place, and advertisers have some certainty that their ads will be shown for some duration. Also, advertisers and publishers should be on speaking terms. On so many other networks you have to ban advertisers that you don't agree with. Why? Because it's so random. An advertiser should be a friend, nay, even a benefactor to the publisher. So whether you want to advertise slippers in Sandusky, fireworks for the Chinese New Year, or brand-new lead suits on Radiactive decay there is a page for every advertiser.

To use the search function go to the main page, select the language of your choice at the bottom, and type your search in the box at the top. After you find the page of your dreams, click the placeholder ad and register your ad.

Remember this is the like the Oklahoma Land Run, the first advertisers to snag the page gets the lowest price.
