Advertise

The old Advertise page was slightly unprofessional - anyways, here’s one that stays short and to the point.

Advertising on Big Ben Patton’s Place is not just extremely beneficial (for getting news about your website out) but also cost effective… you see, few other websites will allow you to reach such a targeted market for just pennies.

Big Ben Patton’s Place readers tend to be aged between 18 and 40 on average, and very in touch with the I.M, webmaster, blogging, technology world - should your product appeal to them, you will get traffic and sales. Due to the price relative to the quality you will get, ad slots tend not to last for very long Get in quick.

Blog Statistics

Of course, you need to see what you’re getting for the price you’ll pay - I wouldn’t spend money without seeing the statistics either.

As you can see, the blog received just over 2,296 unique visitors last month, with them viewing slightly more than 4,142 pages. For some of the ad slots, that puts it at a very affordable CPM - far less than you’d pay at similarly sized blogs.

Big Ben Patton’s Place has a Pagerank of 3… This was a bit short of the pr4 I was hoping for, but not to shabby. With over 3,200 inbound links it is more than likely that this will increase during the next update. Note: Links will be nofollow to comply with Google’s Webmaster Guidelines.

Alexa is 122,870 and this blog grows ever closer to breaking into the top 100,000 websites in the world. Again, this is on an upward trend and it is rapidly rising from the millions it was at launch.

This blog just broke into the top 113,000 blogs on Technorati (out of over 100 million I do believe) and with more and more blogs being exposed to quality content, back links to this website should only increase.

175+ RSS subscribers that read posts via RSS every single day. A statistic that is rapidly increasing as more and more people find out about the blog.
