Thanks for your interest in advertising here!
The page info is still being worked on and uploaded as time allows.
So if there's anything not yet covered on here that you need to know, just ask!
There are several ways of advertising, so read this entire page to better understand.

Here's what you need to know...
There's a bit of math involved here, but if you're serious about advertising,
Then you probably got to this point by watching your business's own math.
Here is no different than there.

Decide on your ad size, its placement, total timelength, type of ad display, and rate factors....
Then do the math.
The price is the MONTHLY cost (Prepaid by the last full week of the preceeding month)
(Annual/non-refundable discount also available)
Add or delete the options you selected until the figures come into balance with your budget.

BUT YOU WANT THE "QUICK ANSWER", DON'T YOU?...ok
There's no real way to tell without an idea of the variables you choose below.
The best that can be done is to make it quick and easy for the lookers that come here,
So there has to be a "formula"...
Here's a "quicky formula" you can use to estimate the cost with...

Cost Factors:
"Cost Factors" are the preceding number assigned to each choice in a given area below.
Multiply each cost factor by the next choice's cost factor repeatedly until you have completed all areas.
Prices are subject to change due to availability and other factors.
See below for a description of each section

If you require a simple banner/link:
$10.00 modest fee cost to cover the time spent on creating it, using your own name, picture or logo.
If you already have your own, it's not a factor.

$25.00 One-Time ad setup fee for each separate ad you wish to list.
(If you run the exact ad again at a later date, there is no setup fee for it)
Non-refundable for any reason.

INTRODUCTORY STARTING PRICE:
Obviously this starting base price wont last long.
It's basically a 50% off sale, designed to fill the first layer of ads as quickly as possible,
AND ALSO BEING USED AS A HEARTY THANK YOU(!) TO THOSE WHO HELP JUMP-START THE AD CAMPAIGN!
THIS PRICE WILL GO UP BEFORE THE FIRST LAYER OF ADVERTISERS IS COMPLETE.
SO LOCK-IN YOUR AD PRICING COSTS NOW WHILE YOU CAN.-NO "DO-OVERS" ON THIS ONE.
Maximum 1 Year Pre-Paid limit allowed.

$1.00 Base Price!!
Multiply THE BASE PRICE by the factors you choose in each level to determine the final cost.

x (X) DISPLAY TYPE
x (X) SIZE
x (X) NUMBER OF PICTURES
x (X) LENGTH OF TIME (10 Seconds Minimum Total)
x (X) ON HOW MANY PAGES
x (X) PLACEMENT ON PAGES
=TOTAL $ PER MONTH PER AD

As an Example:
Using a 1 Block Static Picture Link 120x60 Footer Ad on ALL PAGES
$ 10.00 Design Fee
$ 25.00 Setup Fee
$ 50.00 ALL PAGES ON THIS WEBSITE-Monthly fee for 1 BLOCK FOOTER AD (120x60)
$ 85.00 First month costs
$ 50.00 Subsequent monthly costs if there are no changes to the ad

A better payment table will be made at some point for those who need it.
But for now, most should be able to calculate costs from the information below.

Same forms of payment accepted for advertising space as for the products.
See the Payment Options Link in the main menu column.
A sale page link will eventually be created for each size and placement of ads.
Until then, buyers will be invoiced.


About The Ad's....

First...
These are all just very basic ads.
From a static picture link or a scrolling marquee type...
With a link to your site's page destination that you determine...
To a blinking or changing picture's type link with audio.

There are no site stats or click-through tracking to be had (Perhaps in the future/not now).
Using a simple type link ad to bring you business that otherwise would have passed you by.

If you already have a banner, send it in to determine whether it can or cannot be used here.
If it fits within the parameters and the websites abilities, and does not cause a "drain" on the resources, it may be usable.
Otherwise a simple one as stated will have to be used

Ads will occupy a single block exclusively ONLY UNTIL ADDITIONAL ADS HAVE BECOME RECRUITED.
At that time, the timeframe you purchased will still be honered,
Though the ad will be looped along with others instead of alone,
Mathematically shortening your ads visibility time if you tried to circumvent the costs by buying lesser amounts of time at first.
Ads that purchase more pages will take presidence over those buying space for lesser amounts of pages in regards to placement preferences.
A given place on the page will be the recognizable placement for the numerically higher page listings as well as for the larger ads having preferance also.





Ads will occupy a single block or blocks exclusively for now.
If more area is needed to accomidate future advertisers at this site,
Then it will be created at that time in whatever manor or fashion is needed.

At that time, the total timeframe of ads you purchased will still be honered,
Though the ad may be looped along with other advertisers instead of as a stand alone,
Mathematically shortening your ads visibility time if you tried to circumvent the costs by buying lesser amounts of time at first.
Though you may wait to purchase more time then if you like, so as to save until then.
Ads that purchase more space will take presidence over those buying space for lesser amounts of pages in regards to placement preferences in the area they purchased for.
A standard/unchanging place on the page section will be more memorable to buyers as placement for the larger ads as having preferance also.











No links to inappropriate sites allowed.
All requests will be screened for content before accepting.
Must be 100% legal link, website, & content.
Future policy updates if any, will be posted here as they become necessary.



Now, for what you really want to know...
If you're looking at this page, it's probably because you understand the power of advertising and "Getting the word out!"

Here are the basics...
UNLIMITED CLICK's-All advertising rates quoted here are for UNLIMITED CLICKS
CONTINUOUS LOOP- Cycling of all ads located in each block in a LOOP FASHION (See Below)
MONTHLY/ANNUAL PRICING-All prices are on a MONTHLY OR ANNUAL basis-NO CLICK COSTS
ANNUAL DISCOUNT-10% Off if a full year is prepaid-NON-REFUNDABLE FOR ANY REASON
BULK AD's DISCOUNT-10% Off for each additional ad (of equal or lesser value) linking to the same site as the first one.
FARM BUNDLE's DISCOUNT-10% Off for small farms and ag based sole proprietorships like fruit & vegetable stands.
Those are the primary things people are interested in that can be answered without knowing some specifics about the ad.
THERE ARE NO COST-PER-CLICK CHARGES HERE!!!!
ACCIDENTAL OR OTHERWISE


DISCOUNT RULES:
Bulk buying is still the most powerful discount program around.
The more time & space you purchase, the better deal you may get.
If you own many websites, it may pay to get your advertising for them all right here.
Send an email with your website time & space needs for a quote.

ALSO, THERE ARE SEVERAL GROUP DISCOUNT SPACES AVAILABLE.
Good cheap advertising space for:
Tractor clubs & shows, farms, vegetable & fruit stands, and many other agriculturally based group or business.
Must also be a non-profit/.org status or a sole proprietor business to qualify for the discount.
These are all grouped together in their own loops for similarity results.
They are footer ads, and another row of space would be added if necessary to accomidate them under the full priced ads.


So here's the info...
First on the list of important item's in determining your cost:

DISPLAY TYPE:
The type you choose is another factor in determining the cost...
Listed in ascending cost factors...
1 Static Picture Link
2 Flashing (One/Same Picture)
3 Multiple Pictures (Changing/Cycling/Flashing)
4 Marquee
5 Moving Graphics Or Animation
6 Audio (Combined with a static picture link)



SIZE:
This is determined by you if there is adequate space left available, otherwise, it's on a "what's left" basis.
Generally there are several "pre-set" sizes available
If a space available is too small for the size you've chosen, an adjoining space will be added at no cost until the adjustments to the webpage can be made.
(That means you get a bigger ad at no aditional cost until the page can be fitted to the proper size!)

As a medium to use for understanding sizes, use the following information:
The changing pictures at the upper corner of this page has 3 "ad's"
You can only choose from what's available on the pages at the time of ordering.
1 Block=120x60 (60x120 if on page SIDES)--May be larger, but never smaller

1 Block=The smaller one
2 Block=Larger One
3 Block=Demo Needed
4 Block=Demo Needed
5 Block=Demo Needed
6 Block=Demo Needed


Number Of Pictures:
How many pictures TOTAL are in the ad link?
(Changing/Cycling through more than one picture in a sequence throughout the ad)
1 1 Picture
2 2 Picture
3 3 Picture
4 4 Picture
5 5 Picture
6 6 Picture


LENGTH OF TIME:
(Measured in Seconds Per Picture)
Seconds per picture x number of pictures determines how long in seconds the ad cycle will last.

Decide how many seconds you want the duration of the TOTAL ad cycle to run.
Divided that number by the number of pictures.
That gives you the number of required seconds each picture must have, in orderr to accomplish your goal.

Marquee counts as total number of seconds it takes for one cycle plus restart (Approx 5 spaces/Second)
Minimum purchase of TOTAL time is 10 Seconds for each ad.

1 1 Seconds
2 2 Seconds
3 3 Seconds
4 4 Seconds
5 5 Seconds
6 6 Seconds
etc...


PAGES--HOW MANY?
How many pages do you want your advertisement on?

1 ALL INFORMATION PAGES ONLY (Menu/Main Links)
2 ALL CATEGORY MAIN PAGES ONLY  (Main/1st separation of various items for sale)
3 ALL CATEGORY SUB PAGES ONLY (1st separation of items within a specific category/2nd separation overall from main page)
4 ALL CATEGORY LOWER PAGES ONLY (Page where the item link becomes visable to the buyer)
5 EVERY PAGE-(Required for Header, Header Outsides, Footer, and Footer Outsides ads)
6 ALL AD PAGES ONLY (Item price & description pages)

NOTE:
AS SPACES FILL UP FROM OTHERS SELECTING "EVERY PAGE", SOME MAY BECOME UNAVAILABLE
BUY MUCH....BUY EARLY


PLACEMENT:
Where on the page do you want it?
PLACEMENT FOR ALL YOUR PAGES WILL BE THE SAME.
Customers like routine...in the middle of browsing, when they realize they need to look something up, or compare items...
They want to know right where to go NOW-or they'll start from scratch with a new search.
Plus this has the advantage of working well for ad comparisons so you can tell where and awhat size you want for your own advertisement.
Everyone wants to be at or near the top.
There's only so much "top" space available.

Here's the space breakdown:
All can be combined with neighboring empty blocks for a larger ad.
Preceding number below indicates the range of available blocks before any ads are placed there.

4-Page Bottom-(Under the links to the next level or item for sale)-1 Year Plan
6-Page Sides-Note that at this time, THE RIGHT SIDE ONLY IS BEING USED-1 Year Plan
4-Page Top-Above the ads, below the header-1 Year Plan
4-Header ENDS-(Obtrusive look grabs attention)
5-Header LOWER (Half Height)
2-Header Outsides-2 BLOCK MINIMUM REQUIRED
2-Footer Outsides-2 BLOCK MINIMUM REQUIRED
6-Footer-(Bottom of the page)
NOTE: Header, Header Outsides, Footer, and Footer Outsides are all sold as "ALL PAGES ADS"-NO EXCEPTIONS


Rates are determined also by where on the page you want it to be.
Obviously, some placements are better than others.
The higher the visability on the page that the placement is, the higher the factor in determining the cost.
Combining spaces for a larger ad is allowed, but the cost is increased as well.
Page ads (Not Header/Footer) are 1 Year Pre-Paid Plans Only-Too much detail for a monthly plan, sorry.

Placement Factors:
1 Footer (Very bottom of visable page)
2 Page Bottom (Above the footer, but under the category and item links on the pages)-1 Year Plan
3 Footer Outsides-(Obtrusive look grabs attention)
4 Header LOWER (Under "Hardacrefarm", but above the page info)-Half height/doublewide
5 Header ENDS-(Obtrusive look grabs attention)
6 Header Outsides-(Obtrusive look grabs attention)
7 Page Sides   (Along lsides of category and item links on the pages)-VERTICAL PICTURES-1 Year Plan
8 Page Top     (Below the header, but above the picture links to the next level or sale item)-1 Year Plan




For now, until all spaces are occupied, each advertiser can have their own space continually "looping" with only their own ad in it.
All of the available blocks can each have multiple advertisers "looping" within them.
However, as different ad sizes are purchased, the availability of a given other size blockspace may become obsolete.
Wherever possible, the larger ads with multiple spaces will be placed either higher vertically on the sides of pages, or centered more horizontally at the tops & bottoms according to whichever is their purchase type.


Look along the top of any page on this site.
At the outer sides are three pictures in a close pattern, there deliberately for your inspection.
Ad 1 has 4 pictures rotating at 1 second intervals
Ad 2 has 4 pictures rotating at 2 second intervals
Ad 3 has 4 pictures rotating at 3 second intervals
Ad 3 is also 2x the size of ads 1 & 2

Multiplying the number of pictures you wish to show, by the number of seconds per picture will give you the total timelength of the ad.
Multiply the total timelength of the ad by how many pictures (changes) you want in your ad to determin your "COST FACTOR".
This cost factor will then be used to determine the total cost according to the other variables that you choose from below for your ad.
(Marquee type ads have a similar method, but different/lower rate-See below)
