More About Banner Listings
The amount of times your banner is displayed is measured in "impressions". An Impression is counted every time your advert appears on a persons screen that is viewing the website. This guarentees our advertisers receive a fair and exact amount of exposure to their customers, unlike television and print where the actual viewing demographics are only estimations.

Artwork costs are not included in pricing framework, if you do not have banners developed we can recommend design companies to help you with your advertising design needs.

The subscription service will Autobill your credit card every month, you may cancel at any time by logging into PayPal and clicking "Cancel Subscription" or simply by contacting Loz.

 

The "Forum Trader" system was the initial foundation of advertising on nissansilvia.com and we have decided to continue with this form of advertising accross all the domains within the Hard Tuned network.

This core form of advertising for smaller automotive parts retailers is divided into four levels of sponsorship, depending on the requirements of the company:

The system described above offers Hard Tuned sponsors the ability to manage and promote their business via self maintained areas which become 'live' online catalogues of their respective products and services on offer, with members communicating and purchasing directly off the site through personal message, email or phone.

This style of advertising creates a highly competitive marketplace however is cost effective and can yeild excellent results if the shop is willing to devote a member of their staff to update, maintain, and handle queries on an ongoing basis.
