Electronic Advertising Rates

Page-Top Banners are the perfect way to maintain your presence throughout the entire Green Beam site. Ads are loaded in a frame that continues to appear, no matter which Green Beam pages your prospects are viewing. Because the frame is at the top of the page, it's always visible, even when readers scroll down our pages. Ads rotate one after the other, as they come up in the ad queue. Ads appear for approximately 20 seconds before returning to the bottom of the queue. Ads will be linked to the URL you specify.

The Home Page Button allows aggressive promoters to reserve a position directly on the Green Beam home page. The button appears adjacent to the Green Beam logo, in the highly visible top-right position on the page frame. This position is exclusive, and does not rotate with other advertisers. Ads will be linked to the URL you specify. For maximum effect, ads should avoid the rigid boxed look so they appear to float on our background color (see sample, left). A selection of ad sizes is available. Ad copy must be changed for consecutive months.
