How much would it cost to advertise on the internet? Any market information on this?

Looking to find some information on how much it costs to advertise on the internet for a normal company. For example, if a company wanted a banner or link on a resource site how much would they charge? Of course its dependent on how much traffic the site gets, but are there any industry standard prices?

Thanks alot

There is no industry standard. It is totally dependant on the amount of traffice, or eyeballs, a particular website is getting.

One of the best ways to advertise your website online is through pay per click. Google and Yahoo are the big ones. Through them, you can get your ads running not only on the search engines, but on websites all over the Internet that have content that matches your website.

You may also want to look for joint venture opportunities. Are there other similar sites to yours that are non-competitors but offer products to the same general marketplace? You could offer to swap banner or text advertising with them.

Don’t overlook e-mail lists as well. You can find someone with an e-mail list. Offer to give them a large percentage of your profit on each sale if they’ll e-mail your ad to their list. It’s a way to make money and get new customers.

Best wishes to you. At least you’re thinking about these things. Many Internet marketers never stop to really think about specific ways to grow their business.
