You can reach a targeted market of fair industry professionals by becoming an advertising sponsor of The Fair InfoNet and FairTalk!
Thousands of fair professionals have visited The Fair InfoNet web site, and more than 300 of them receive every message sent via the "FairTalk" listserver. The growth of these two on-line resources for fair professionals is growing daily.
The occupations of these fair industry professionals include:
Just like any other industry, more and more people in the fair industry are going on-line everyday. When they do go on-line, the web site and listserver will be consistently one of their first, and most frequently used fair industry resources. Your involvement will help you take advantage of this specialized fair industry traffic, and help you stand-out among your peers and competitors.
Web site sponsorship
The Fair InfoNet is a depository of fair information, and the anchor for the fair industry listserver, "FairTalk." As such, it enjoys a high level of traffic (for information on The Fair InfoNet's visitors, please visit our web traffic and/or survey statistics pages).
Sponsorship of The Fair InfoNet consists of banners, placed similarly to the one on the top of this page. Banner size will be approximately 440 x 60 pixels.
Banners can contain artwork and can even be animated! They can also be linked to a web site of the sponsor's choice. In the future, we will be developing a fee schedule based on traffic to individual sections. But in the meantime, please see the rates below and contact us if you are interested in placing your banner on our site.
There are two ways in which your banner can be displayed:
| Display Method | Locations | Maximum # of Banners | Cost |
| Rotating* | Classified Ads & Exhibitor Hot-line! | <10 per section | $50 to $200/mo. based on # of participants |
| Static** | Resources, Links, Fair Themes, Sponsors, and FairTalk | 1 per section | $50/mo. |
| Rates are subject to change without notice. | |||
* Display of Rotating Banners will alternate among eligible banners on all pages within a section.
** There will be one Static Banner per location and it will be the only banner displayed in that section.
Listserver sponsorship
A "listserver" is simply a computer connected to the Internet which processes e-mail. If you subscribe to a listserver, you can send it a message and have it automatically transmitted to all the other subscribers. In this way, you can ask a question, and receive answers from many different sources, while other subscribers follow the discussion.
The fair industry listserver is called "FairTalk." It can be accessed from our "Fair Forums" page.
Sponsor messages are placed in the headers and/or footers of all FairTalk messages. This means your message goes directly to each and every subscriber on a regular basis. The costs are $50/mo. for the header message, and $25/mo. for footer messages (when ordered in three month increments).
If you would like to discuss sponsorship as a means of raising the profile of your organization, please contact me at: terrill@abcinternet.com, or call ABC Internet at: (530) 672-2630.
This site is maintained and operated by ABC Internet, blending a knowledge of
fairs and technology to find cost effective, high-tech solutions to today's business challenges.
