How does it work?
We sell our advertising space online by duration and page impressions. A page impression is term used when someone visits a particular page on a website. So as you are reading this you have generated 1 page impression. Only some of our adverts are sold by duration only i.e. booking an advert to run for 5 days.
When will my advert appear and how often?
Your advert will appear between the duration it is booked for. Our online advertising works on a rotation policy. What this means is it shares a particular ‘space’ on our website with other adverts that have been booked. For example: If website A generates 10,000 page impressions (10,000 visits) and you want an advert to appear at the top (for example a leaderboard), if you booked 1,000 Page impressions that leaves 9,000 available for other adverts to use. The rotation of adverts is random so your advert can appear at any time during the day. As long as you have not booked more than is available you should always get what you paid for.
How can I maximise my advert delivery?
If you are advertising a specific offer, for example ‘discount on all used cars’ it would be worth purchasing page impressions on our cars section. Some of our websites deliver hundreds of thousands to over one million page impressions site wide (includes every section) per month. If your budget only allows for a few thousand page impressions it’s a good idea to think where best to place your advert to avoid it becoming lost or diluted over the whole site. Alternatively if you have a bit extra to spend and want to target as many potential users as possible you may want to consider it. We are happy to provide statistics on page impression delivery for our websites either by section or site wide. Please contact your local advertising manager on the contact us page with your enquiry.
