|  | Suggestion Box - free webcomic advertising! « Thread Started on Mar 16, 2007, 2:51pm » | |
When I first started posting comics on the web, I came across a site called webcomicslist.com. It no longer exists and shouldn't be confused with TheWebComicList which does but is completely different.
Anyway, one of the features of that site was a box in which webcomic creators could advertise their comics for free. I always thought this was a great way for a webcomic site to "give something back" to the community and so, when the site closed, I decided to include a similar box on my site to replace it - the Suggestion Box. I haven't done much to promote this feature until now, so I thought it was about time I mentioned it here!
Want to advertise in the Suggestion Box?
If you have a webcomic you want to advertise, just send me the following:
- a jpeg image (max 135w x 145h at 72dpi) - the name of your comic - the full URL of your website.
That's all there is to it! You can either send me the details by email or by posting them here in the Forum, as a reply to this thread.
How long will the advert be featured?
This depends on two things: 1. Demand All advertisements will be featured for a minimum period of 24 hours. At present, however, I'm not being inundated with requests and so, as long as that continues, it's most likely that your advertisement will be featured for much longer than that.
2. Links If you include a link to Broken Voice Comics at your own site, your advertisement will be featured for at least one week. Again, depending on demand, it could be featured for even longer. You can obtain a suitable button or banner for a link to BVC from our Links page. If you have added a link to BVC at your website, make sure you let us know.
Repeating ads
In a week when we have no new ads waiting to be featured, previous ads will be shown again. Priority will be given to those comics which have added a BVC link at their website.
If you don't want to wait to come round in rotation, however, you can always ask for your comic to be added to the list again. There is no restriction on the number of times your ad can be featured.
Where will the advert appear?
The Suggestion Box does not appear on the BVC comics pages or the Outpost pages since, in those sections, we use that space to provide our creators' commentaries. It does appear, however, on almost all other pages including the BVC homepage.
Unacceptable images and links
Just a quick word of caution - we reserve the right to refuse images which feature material which we consider offensive or links to websites which we believe could be offensive to our regular readers. Whether an image or website is considered offensive will be at our sole discretion.

Hey Sari,
I don't seem to have access to wherever you have the ad image. If you could post the image here or send me the pic by email, I can add you to the list.

Ugh... so sorry about that... I'm not sure what all was happening with it -- sometimes it'd work and sometimes not.... anyway, this one should work...

url for it is: http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1268/672701941_c1227e15f5_o.gif
if that still doesn't work, I'll email it to you 
Thanks a lot!

Getting closer, Sari!
The only thing now is the size. The ad box is made for images 135w x 145h. Check the details in the first post in this thread and have a look at the BVC homepage to see where it will go.
Don't worry - we'll get there!

If you send me an image that's 145(h) x 135(w), I'll be happy to add you to the list!

It's a button link that's at the bottom of the page - if something needs to be modified, just contact me and let me know. Thanks!

Yes, Windows is like that. But then all tech-y things are like that for a technophobe like me!
I can work with that image, thanks, Zaceron. You're on the list.
