Want to advertise on The Furry Forum?
« on: November 11, 2011, 07:41:14 PM »
Tweak and I are now allowing any of our forum members purchase advertising space on the forum. This advertising space can be used for artists, conventions, meet-ups, etc. The cost is $5 for a month or a 75,000-view count (whichever is longest).
Please note: This $5 payment is not considered a donation and does not count toward receiving Donator status and perks.

There is currently one ad spot in the upper right of the forum under "News" where the ads will appear. Multiple ads will be rotated within the one spot. If we gather more interest in advertising, additional advertising spots may be added in the future.

Banners will not be accepted unless they meet the following requirements:
  • JPG, GIF, or PNG format
  • 200kb or less in file size
  • Exactly 300 pixels wide and 90 pixels high
  • Must abide by forum rules
  • Animated banners are allowed, but animations should be subtle - not unnerving. No rapidly flashing images.
  • Cannot show or specifically advertise for adult material
    • Exception: If you are a member of the Adult Area of the forum and wish to advertise mature/adult material, you may do so, but the adult ads will only show up inside the restricted Adult Area. Adult ads should still be tasteful - not explicit.

If your banner does not meet the guidelines listed above, we will tell you what needs to be fixed. You can then edit it or just make a new banner and re-submit. Payment will be taken once your banner has been accepted.


To submit an advertisement, send Tweak or me a PM with your banner image and a URL (link) that the banner will direct people to when clicked.

Spoiler for Don't know how to send an image in a PM?:
Don't know how to send an image in a PM?

Images can be directly attached to PMs, or pasted as an image link.

To attach an image directly to a PM, go to where it says "Attach" under the message text box and simply browse for the file on your computer.

To paste the image as a link, it will need to be uploaded somewhere online so that Tweak and I can access it through a link. Once you upload it somewhere, you can just copy and paste the link into a PM to us.

If you don't already have a way of uploading images, Photobucket, Imageshack, and Tinypic are three popular and easy-to-use options. Just browse for the image on your computer and click the "upload" button.

After the image finishes uploading, there will almost certainly be a text box listed next to the image that says "Direct Link." That's the link you need to copy and paste into the PM. That's it. :)

Also, ImageShack doesn't accept .gif's unless you're a paying member. It sucks.

We host all the ad images ourselves anyway, so if need be, just attach it to the post.

Advertising??
Lol I don't have much to advertise but I could advertise someone's youtube channel that deserves are views and subscribers. 

How about advertising 3rd party stuff, or non furry stuff?

Hiya!
I think that this is a great idea, but can I throw a suggestion out there?

I don't know if anyone else likes it, but I love on FurAffinity how there are four ads on each page; two up top and two down bottom.
Maybe you could center two at the top (Although I don't see any purpose having them at the bottom here)

Can I do one for my FurAffinity? :D

That should be fine, as long as it's forum appropriate and follows the guidelines.

We have no problem adding more ad spots, and we probably will in the future - but we need people to submit ads first. ;) Considering we only have 3 banners right now, there really isn't a need for 4 advertising spots.

And yes, you can advertise for a FurAffinity page.

It's been a month, so the offer for free advertising is now closed. You can still purchase advertising space however, for $5 a month.

In the month since we've started these advertisements, each ad has earned an average of 14 clicks and 126,864 views. (Though that estimate isn't exact because not all advertisements have been up for a full month yet.)
