Advertising
Advertising your shop, services or premises :
| This website isn't very big, we realize that.
At the moment there are approx. 500 visitors per day her, viewing
a total of around 1500 pages (not including the inline frame views like
in the picture galleries). On the other hand, this site is relatively
new and growing very fast in size , options and visitors / pageviews.
Still, if you only pay per pageview or clickthrough, the advertising is
as effective as advertising on the largest website there is. Even more :
Here you can really get targeted visitors and control your ad exposure.
Many Caribbean related sites offer advertising,
but hardly any of them gives you insight in the REAL ads exposure , and
even less willl give you statistics of clickthrough behaviour. And isn't
that what advertising is about ?
Here we do things differently : We use an
extremely complex software, which for you, user is extremely easy to
use.
There are many options to maximise the
effectivity of your ads and minimise the costs. So what can you do with
our system ?
- Use many different formats: Picture, text,
flash, javascript and dhtml. Even ads with php are possible.
- Keyword targeting. Just like the google
ads .
- Pay per click ( you can set the price ,
higher clickthrough rate x bid gets more exposure)
- Pay per view ( you can set the price ,
higher bidder gets more exposure)
- View statistics of your ads , which help
you a lot in maximizing the effetivity.
- Choose between various ways of displaying
the ads. Even floating layers which minimize after a few seconds.
The only thing we have disabled are popup windows, since
they can be very annoying.
- Choose whether or not to use cookies. You
must comply to our
privacy policy if you decide to use
cookies.
- Set a maximum cost per day or per selected
period ( Week , Month, Year. )
- We want to encourage you to participate in this
brand new advertising program.
- You can test drive it for the starter sum
of 50 dollars , which will give you 500 clickthrough's or 25000
exposures.
- Important note: Sites with adult content ,gambling
sites or others with questionable content will not be allowed in our
scheme, please contact our
webmaster
for help or if you have any doubt about your
content.
- To get an idea of how it all works, see
our
USER
MANUAL first, in pdf format
(adobe acrobat reader) .
- In case you find it to complicated to set
it all up, we can do it for you for a small fee.

Your business is not Carriacou related :
A:
This is the cheapest solution for
caribbean, not Carriacou webpages :
-
Pages with the Paradise
Inn header , Google search and links on top, Google targeted
advertising on the left of the page.
-
Price per page 25 US $ per
year per page. The address for the pages would something like
this: www.paradise-inn-carriacou.com/yourcompany.php
Example of what the page would look like The advantage of
the links and the Google items is, that your pages will
inmediately get noticed by the search engines.
-
Since you
are included in the Paradise Inn website, your pages will get
more visitors from the first day on. Disadvantage for you could be, that
the entire theme and layout of the pages will be the same as
Paradise Inn's. You will not stick out so much as a seperate
enterprise.
B:
The medium solution for caribbean but
not Carriacou webpages :
-
Complete freedom in layout and
theme, liberty on all sides. You could do the design or
have it
done by our webmaster.
-
The address for the pages would
look something
like this: www.paradise-inn-carriacou.com/yourcompany.php
-
Example of what the pages
could look like
-

complete set of pages including the navigation structure and
graphics, no alterations have to be done, the price per year
for five pages is 100 US $.

You will get a link to
your pages from us, so you will get noticed by the search
engines quickly.
