No, we sell advertisements by the day and by the month. If you purchase a daily advertisement, your advertisement will be displayed exclusively on all websites on our network for an entire 24 hours. If you purchase a monthly advertisement, your advertisement will be one of no more than 25 advertisements displayed on all websites in our network for at least 25 full days in the month.
The advantage to daily advertisements is exclusivity -- your advertisement is the only advertisement displayed on the network for a full 24 hour period.
Monthly advertisements are displayed in rotation with all other monthly advertisements on all websites in our network. For example, if your monthly advertisement is one of 25 sold for that month, your advertisement will be displayed 1/25th of the time for a minimum of 25 days. We never sell more advertisements per month then there are days in that month.
Daily advertisements are displayed exclusively for a full 24 hour period on all member websites. So, no matter how many daily (no more than 5) or monthly (no more than 25) advertisements we sell, your daily advertisement will be the only advertisement displayed on all websites on our network for a full 24 hour period -- no other advertisements will be displayed during that time.
Yes, so long as clicking the advertisement takes the visitor to a page that only talks about your GNU/Linux services. Your advertisement and the page your advertisement links you to must not suggest the use of proprietary software to be appropriate for the Ad Bard Network.
The Ad Bard Network only displays one format of advertisement, comprised of both an image and some text. The image must be 120 pixels wide by 90 pixels tall. The text must be no more than 80 characters long.
When you place an order for an advertisement on the Ad Bard Network, your ad is placed into a queue for review by all members of our network. All members are allowed to vote and comment on the advertisement for 72 hours. Member website votes are weighted based on the number of impressions their website has provided the network over the past 7 days. Appropriate advertisements receiving more yes votes than no votes are selected to be displayed on our network.
