Advertising Structure

There are two basic ways of advertising your product or service at the Iconfactory:

Static/animated graphic ad banners
Sponsorship of individual icon "collections"

Graphic ad banners are displayed on the Iconfactory homepage as well as the search results page in web standard blocks. Ad blocks are 120 pixels wide by X number of pixels high. Ads in this format may be either static or animated, but cannot exceed 10k in file size.

The second kind of advertising, sponsoring an individual collection has unique benefits that graphic banners cannot compare to. With this type of advertising, a short text blurb, internet bookmark and company icon are placed in the root directory of a future Iconfactory "originals" icon collection. When the sets are downloaded and opened by users, the sponsorship is displayed. The lengths of these ad runs vary, but 6 months is the standard setup.

Additionally, if you're business is interested in advertising across the entire MacAddict Network, (the ad frame at the bottom of our page) please contact Gene Burns of Imagine Media at XXX-XXX-XXXX, extension XXX. Imagine will be more than happy to work with your business to reach the kind of exposure you're looking for.
