Graphic Ads for AdminBuzz.com

[DefCon5]

We're currently working with a graphics designer who is developing graphic ads for each of our network sites.

We will have the following ad sizes:

• 728x90 Leaderboard
• 468x60 Banner
• 120x600 Tower

1. Are there any other sizes that you think we should create? I know that the 300x250 big box ads get a lot of attention and clicks.
2. Also, can anyone recommend what sites we should contact to run on?
3. Does anyone know if we can purchase ad space on TheAdminZone.com and DigitalPoint.com? Our AdminBuzz.com ads would do well there I think.

As promised, here are the initial draft creatives for three AdminBuzz graphic ads in the following formats: 728x90, 468x60, 120x600
Comments are welcome.

Very nice. It's eye catching.
Where's the first place you're going to advertise?
Interested in exchanges as well?

[DefCon5]

We're making a campaign strategy now and will implement as soon as we have the newsletter ready and vBportal installed. Any recommendations for where to advertise or exchange?

[Buzz]

Well, I'm looking around. Checking out TAZ, and such.

If you plan on using AdWords try to get on DigitalPoint forums and TheAdminZone.
NamePros, v7n, DNForum and other webmaster sites like those are also good.

Do you know if any of them accept direct ad campaigns? Directly from us to them, not through a third party like Google.

My main interest is getting our Ads onto sites like v7n..

They charge $700 a month. That's pretty steep. TAZ only charges $50/month.
