ADVERTISERS' MEDIA KIT

Number of Subscribers as of today's date: 5,774


Advertising in Canine Times has produced a fabulous return on my investment! It has proven to deliver a quality, targeted audience of dog owners and enthusiasts who have demonstrated that they have the income and motivation to spend money on dog related products. I highly recommend advertising in this e-zine to anyone who has a pet-related web site. -- Adam G. Katz, DogProblems.com

"I didn't have any other ads running, and at 7:00 pm on Monday (when CT is delivered) my site traffic jumped up. Within a few days I had added more subscribers than I expected. The response is an order of magnitude better than a banner ad, at a similar price." -- David J. Jilk, Coolsheets.com

"Our advertisement on Canine Times brought us amazing results. Within an hour of the ad's release we were getting hits on our web site. Within days, we had hundreds of requests from people responding to the ad to be on our mailing list. Canine Times delivers a very large bang for the buck, particularly for those seeking a targeted audience of Fido lovers." -- Anita Lang Burroughs, internet retailer of sterling and gold jewlery for animal lovers,The Anita Lang Collection

SPONSORSHIP
Only two sponsor ads are permitted per issue. They are placed at the beginning of the ezine or in the middle. They are always surrounded by copy, so they are not competing with other ads. You may use up to 10 lines of space for your message. That's based on a 65-character line count. Use less if you like. Or use it all. Remember, it's first-come, first-serve -- so choose the sponsorship position you want and reserve it today!

  • Top Position -- Sponsor AD
    This is the premier position. It's the first ad readers see in Canine Times. It is placed immediately below the Table of Contents, which kicks off the start of each issue. The cost for Top Position/Sponsorship is 1.8 cents per email address ($18/M). Based on current list size, the cost is $63.00.


  • Second Position -- Sponsor AD
    The second sponsorship ad (remember, we only allow two per issue!) is still near the top of Canine Times, but after the first major article. We know that our readers are not only loyal readers, but people who read it right from the top to the very bottom. Our Editor's Letter, for example, routinely includes some call to action. Never does this call go unheeded -- and yet, it is the last item in the newsletter. Our own self-advertising always is positioned in the lower section of the newsletter. We know from responses to those inserts that action is restricted to just the top of the ezine.

    Don't hesitate at considering the Second Position, which is available at 1.6 cents per email address ($16/M). Based on current list size, the cost is $56.00.


CLASSIFIED ADS
We allow only five classified ads per issue of Canine Times. You are provided 5-line ads at a total cost of $26 each. Line length is 65 characters. Based on this pricing, you reach one dog owner at .007 each -- not even a penney each! In other words, you pay $7 per thousand email addresses. Try doing that with snail mail!

All classified ads run at the bottom of Canine Times. Please include a short, snappy headline. This will be run in all caps. Do not include your headline in your line count. It's free!

Keep in mind that our readers -- unlike many elsewhere -- have actually asked us to please include canine product/service ads. They particularly want to know about specials on the web, new products and new services.

LIFETIME ARCHIVING OF YOUR AD
Your ad -- whether it is a sponsorship ad or classified -- will be included in our online archive of all published issues of Canine Times for a one-time fee of $50.00 If you select this option and you have ordered, for example, three sponsorship ads, each one of those ads will remain in the issue of Canine Times that they are run in when those issues are archived. While we do not intend to list separately every issue on the archive page itself, every issue will be housed at the host server and will be accessible via the heavily used search engine within the archives section. If you are a sponsor, we'll also be glad to replace your text ad with a banner you provide -- at no extra charge to you!

You can use our secure online check processing form or use the same secure form to fax your payment to us or mail it. Online checking enables you pay online, using a check for payment.
