Advertising Rates

Most advertising companies are not interested in hosting your ads unless you are willing to commit thousands of dollars monthly. Hockeydb.com realizes that small business owners can't afford to take such risks. We have advertising options that will help you as a small business owner.

• A 150x125 banner is permanently placed on the front page and is rotated onto the player search page 20% of the time.
• A 300x250 banner is permanently placed on the front page and is rotated 20% of the time across all pages on hockeydb.com.
• A 160x600 banner is permanently placed on the front page and is rotated 20% of the time across all pages on hockeydb.com.
• A 728x90 banner is permanently placed on the front page, and is rotated 20% of the time across all pages on hockeydb.com.

Any of the above options can be run at a 10% rotation at half the monthly cost, but without the permanent front page placement.

We offer these ad spaces using a pricing model that you are familiar with -- monthly subscriptions.

All prices are in US dollars, and must be payable in US dollars

You will reach over 450,000 different people interested in hockey each month with a campaign on hockeydb.com.

The advertising space is limited so that there aren't dozens of banners in viewers' faces. Most other sites wouldn't give you that volume of targeted exposure for any less than $2,000. You can't get a month's worth of classified ads in the Hockey News for anywhere near that amount. And you are guaranteed to be part of a limited number of targeted advertisers on the site.

By showing your ads to a targeted audience, you will receive many interested visitors from Hockeydb.com. You can sell those people whatever you want without having to pay us a commission; there is no extra charge if you have a product that is very desirable or a banner that really catches peoples' eyes.

You won't have to worry about counting each and every impression or click in the fear that you're being cheated. The customers entering your site from Hockeydb.com will be proof enough that the advertising is working. However detailed log statistics are available for your analysis, if you so choose.

You will also get brand recognition for your site. People will see your banner dozens of times and will remember your site when they are looking for the product you offer. Hockeydb.com is used by tens of thousands of hockey fans, hockey players, and hockey administrators monthly, and is highly respected in the industry. Where else can you reach that type of audience?
