*How much will it cost me, what will I get?

We have tried to keep our prices as simple as possible so there is no confusion as to what you will eventually end up paying.MAIN POINTS 

Price - £100 per calendar month, PLUS bulk discounts of £250 for 3 months.
Size - Various, see examples below
Positioning - 1 advert can be on up to 3 appropriate pages all for the 1 price i.e. on the Gig Guide, What's On, Venues, all for just the one cost of £100.
Visitors to the site -  Phone or contact us by e-mail to get the latest up to date figures for our visitor numbers as these are increasing rapidly and any numbers here would quickly be out of date and not accurately reflect the advertising potential. All these visitors have to actively seek us out and want to see information about Birmingham or something that is shown on our site. This means any advertising is extremely targeted.
Advert Design - We can design an advert for a customer if needed from any logos / images supplied, or often, can use existing advertising copy that they might have.We can also , in many cases, use one of our own photos or graphics if needed To see some examples of Adverts and their related "feature page"CLICK HERE

*I already have a web site, what is the point of advertising with Birmingham101?

Would you normally produce an advert (your web site) and not publish it somewhere like a magazine etc or produce a brochure and not give it out? It would be a pretty pointless excersise if you did yet effectively that is what most people do with their web sites. Ask yourself how are people going to find your website? Advertising with us is only the same principal as placing a conventional advert in a conventional publication, but bringing it up to date and exploiting the many advantages of the Internet.
As all such adverts will effectively become part of the Birmingham101.com site itself for the duration that they run, they will also be able to be found on our own "Site search engine". 
We are now also getting very good rankings in the major search engines such as Google, which in turn means that your advert would also get a high ranking, which as this would also be linked to your existing web site, would effectively probably put you higher up in the search engine rankings.

*How will my advert be found/displayed?

www.birmingham101.com has many inter linked sections, many of which could be seen as individual web sites in their own right, for instance our "Motors" section or our "What's On" section. These in turn are also often made up of further sections i.e. "Motors news", "Motors Autosport", "Motors archived articles" and so on. In turn these are also, wherever we can, then linked together so that for example a forthcoming motoring event will be highlighted in both the "Motors" section, and also the "Whats On" section. In many instances these sort of interlinked connections within the Birmingham101 site as a whole could result in an individual advert being placed on several relevant sections, all for the one cost. This clearly means that with the ever growing variety of content that we are including on Birmingham101.com and the quick and easy links between it all, a visitor may well be drawn to, as in this example, the motoring section, after seeing an interesting advert from the "What's On".
Hopefully you will see from this that as we are such a wide ranging "magazine" web site, even if someone initially comes to our site for something totally unconnected with your type of business they may well "surf" through the various links and end up at your advert.

* Do you design the advert ?

We can design an advert for a customer if needed (included in the price) from any logos / images supplied, or in many cases can use existing advertising copy that they might have.We can also , in many cases, use one of our own photos or graphics if needed  To see some examples of Adverts and their related "feature page" CLICK HERE

*Can I update my advert or add to it? 

Yes.This is a major advantage. If you had an advert with us that ran for a full 12 month period (along with a substantial "bulk" discount) that you also regularly had us update several times it would still cost considerably less than many conventional publications charge for a simple small display advert that conveyed very limited information in a fairly unimpressive way and for a very short period. Alternatively you might just want to have an advert that only ran for a short time (1 or 2 months), and then have a break before re advertising again a little while in the future. It is very simple to then update your advert. It would be very straightforward for you to highlight seasonal sales, new additions, special events or offers etc.. the possibilities are endless.

*How do I have to pay?

You do not have to pay us anything until we have produced your advert for you from the material you have supplied us with, and have shown you how and where it will be shown on www.birmingham101.com  You only have to pay when your advert is published.

*Could you produce more than just a basic web site for us?

We certainly can. Just let us know what you want and we will give you a very hard to beat price.

*Do I need to know about computers?

Only in as much as you need to give us basically what you want on your feature page  typed out either onto a computer disc or sent to us by e-mail. It doesn't have to be set out perfectly or anything like that , just the words typed out for us to work on and we can do the rest. If for some reason this is not possible for you we can type it up for you but unfortunately we would have to make a small charge for this.
