hi guys - we all know salesonline.ie - can anyone recommend other such companies/agencies?

also does anyone believe the stats published here? http://www.salesonline.ie/readyreckoner.pdf
and how can they be proofed?

I'd keep well away from them

My personal experiences with them were terrible - I couldn't even get a quote from them

If you want to do online banner advertising contact individual site owners directly - most of them will deal direct as well ....

Alternatively talk to Mark in Generator :

Spoke to salesonline in relation to a website I was involved in but they deal with the bigger players (would have to be achieving a huge PIPM before they'd work with you).

I don't know of any companies that will deal with the smaller niche websites. Just had a look at the generator website and the figures for sites there seem to be similar?

http://www.salesonline.ie/readyreckoner.pdf


on the sales online table it shows the Down Democrat has 3000 users and 42,000 page impressions per month which is wuite small.

Also, I've been looking at these figures for a while now and they never seem to change....

I'm thinking of buying into a site which currently has over 7000 users and over 100,000 PIPM but sales online seem so difficult to deal with.

Maybe they are just so busy with a million other sites looking to sell ad space, i don't know....

Generator seems only to deal with the really big boys, eircom, rte etc so we'll keep looking for others who will be happy to deal

So you're trying to sell advertising as opposed to buying it?

uswitch,

similar experience here - i was looking at the ready reckoner and some of the smaller website on it tallied with the figures I was achieving - what I also had was an .ie domain website that had a very targetted audience in a niche area.

After a few emails, eventually got talking to salesonline but was told that my PIPM would need to rise significantly before they'd even meet with me - they put me on to a smaller company/agent who I met but never got anywhere with..

to be honest, currently using AdSense on the site and earning a bit from that...

yeah, trying to sell advertising,

The site I'm looking at buying into is Online Dating Service - Online dating site for singles everywhere. Find your soulmate at iloveyou.ie! - online dating, has over 4000 members, averaging 7000 unique visitors and 100,000 PIPM with huge potential so anybody wanna advertise on it......

If I remember correctly, the websites can submit their own figures. Some of those figures are quite laughable and probably have not been filtered for spiders.

Regards...jmcc

You want to advertise on this site, or you are looking to sell advertising on it?

slightly off topic.
Is this ever done in the industry. Go directly to companies eg Bank of Ireland or small business and try sell advert space?

uswitch, would you not use something like commision junction?
