RF Cafe Banner Advertising scheme (10/24/2024)
NOTE: I reserve the option to refuse ads which I do not feel are appropriate
for the RF Cafe mission.
Website Traffic Trend 10/2023 - 3/2023


The above chart shows Banner Ad impression rates for the 6-month
period of 12/21/2022 through 6/20/2023. The average is around a quarter million
per year (2 x 113.5k).
Things are looking up for RFCafe.com website statistics. The trend lines for
Page Views, Visits, and New Visits all have a positive slope. Also, you may have
noticed that I have been modifying and re-publishing some of the earlier RF Cafe
webpages. That involves updating the narrative, verifying hyperlinks (many go dead
over time), and cleaning up older graphics. Much has changed in expectations from
visitors - especially from the early days in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Competition
for visitors is fierce. As always, thank you for your visitorship and stewardship.
Here is a real-time view of the
Banner Ads in all eight positions.

Please contact me, Kirt Blattenberger, with any questions.

Click here for more detail on the Banner Advertising Plan.
All Banners will be randomly displayed in any of the eight (8) page border positions
(see screen capture at left, and info graphic at right), so every company's Banner
will have an equal chance of appearing.
A random number generator determines which company's Banner Ad will go in a particular
position*. I wrote the code myself and it is very simple and
foolproof.
You provide one pair or two pairs of industry-standard
Banner graphics are needed for page border impressions - one (or two) 120x450-px
graphic for the vertical format and one (or two) 728x90-px graphic for the horizontal
format, and also one 330x400-px graphic for the Highlighted Ad
impressions on Vendor pages.
- Term: 3 months
- Price: A flat price of $300 per month is charged, with a standard
3-month term ($900/term).
- Additional Banner Pairs* (up to a maximum of 3) may be
purchased at discount rates to increase the odds that your company's Banner Ad will
be displayed:
- 1 Banner Pair = $300/month
- 2 Banner Pairs = $300 + $150 = $450/month
(= $225/month/Banner Pair)
- 3 Banner Pairs = $300 + 2*($150) = $600/month
(= $200/month/Banner Pair)
- 4 Banner Pairs = $300 + 3*($150) = $750/month
(= $187.5/month/Banner Pair)
- * Each Banner Pair option adds another set
of Banner Ads (120x450-px and 728x90-px) into the random display engine, thereby
doubling your likelihood of being displayed. Unique Banner Ad designs and hyperlink
URLs can be provided with each additional Banner Pair.

Ad Details:
- Pixel dimensions and maximum file sizes listed are firm. If you have trouble
meeting the file size, I will be glad to help - there has never been an ad I couldn't
fit into 45 kBytes.
- I do not collect page traffic or link click statistics for advertisements. Your
website server statistical analysis is a much better reporter of inbound links from
RF Cafe than I or anyone else can provide.
- To the best of my knowledge the page layouts shown are representative of all
pages on RF Cafe.
- I make page layout changes from time to enhance performance.
- The rel="sponsored" tag is inserted into all coded hyperlinks for SEO compliance.
