Website Ads

updated Nov. 9, 2007

We're trying something new this year, and are offering people the opportunity to bid on ad space on our website and blog.

We have three types of ad slots hosted through Project Wonderful, and you will need to bid through their system; the advantage is that you can bid as much or as little as you wish:

Project Wonderful has a page of advertising templates for those who want to create their own website ads; you will need a program such as GIMP or Photoshop.

In accordance with our nonprofit status, we will only take ads from people/groups who offer events, services, or products in line with our goals as a convention.

In other words, we'd be happy to host an ad for your science fiction novel, horror comic, fan group, or mystery convention. Do you have a product that we could imagine being served in our consuite or sold in our dealer's room? That's fine too. But are you hawking an investment service? Sorry, that's outside our sphere. And we will reject ads that go directly to sites with pornographic content.

Revenue from website ads mainly goes toward defraying website hosting and promotion costs.
