Free Advertising for my teamies :D

Okay so here's the long and long of it (y'all should know by now I can't write up something short)

A few of you may have seen my post about starting up a blog that basically is similar to all the other Etsy Finds type blogs, but with my own finds, wit, charm, and of course, an onion with a mustache.

I want to offer advertising (button style) because the blog itself is about promoting fellow etsians, so why not have advertising? For the time being, I am offering it for free because I have no idea whether the blog will do well or not. It's not worth it for you to pay to advertise somewhere that won't even bring you a measly view.

Here's the system I want to implant:

I will have 12 total spots available (6 on the sidebar, 6 on the footer) and will advertise for you in 2 week blocks. The first week on the sidebar, and the second on the footer so we can have a nice rotation going on. (Granted the first week there will be no one on the footer so we don't have to kick someone to the bottom so soon)

Anyone who wants to be advertised on the blog, post here and then convo me a 100x100 button for me to use :)

This is first come first served, but everyone will be placed on a list and I will give you the dates your button will be running. I wanted to put the offer up for you guys before I *gulps* go to the forums.

Any questions, feel free to ask! I hope to get this running by... oh... early this week? I'll be working on it all night (really I just need to write up a couple of posts and put up advertisments and such)

http://frenchonionfinds.wordpress.com/ There's not much going on right now though

Re: Free Advertising for my teamies :D

I'd love the advertising, but don't have a clue what to put up for an image. Hmm maybe I'll come up with something. Great idea though.

What is a button?

It's just another name for a small picture. The purpose of a button is so people can click on it and it will lead to your shop. :)

A picture of one of your items, usually one that best represents your shop, and usually with your shop name on it.

www.picnik.com is a very useful and free website you can use, or there are lots of graphic designer etsians who you can pay through their shop to make a really nice one for you. :)

Please make it 100x100 pixels

Sure! I can hold of for a bit until you're ready and put you in the upcoming rotation in the event you need a bit more time.

There's space for everyone! It's just a matter of when. :) The first week is filled up already but since the blog is so new, you're better off having a later slot anyway! I will let you know the week I have you on once you send your button. :)

Re: Free Advertising for my teamies :D

I would also like to add that once your two weeks are over, you may of course request to be put on again. You will be added to the list so I can't promise immediate exposure, but you will get a spot held for sure :)

Please do not request to be put on again until your two weeks are up though. Play fair :)

Hehe, it probably would be a lot less stressful for me since you know there will be like 200 people that want in, but I want to be fair. There are a lot of shops that aren't really for me so they aren't likely to be featured, so I would like there to be a way for me to help them out.

Even though I know you were (mostly) kidding. =P
