9PlanetReviews ADVERTISING and MARKETING new site.

I have completed (I think) my new site: 9PlanetReviews ADVERTISING and MARKETING.

All of the details are on the front page. This is my first Advertising Venue that I hope to make into a big success with many folks. It’s not a surf site. But it’s pretty close. You will be able to receive SOLO adverts from other members (and send SOLO ads to those members) and you can earn points/credits by clicking on the one link at the bottom of each SOLO advert.

You can also advertise banners, not just web pages. Am just going to let you read the front page, why bore you here?

Now read closely: there are two types of memberships: FREE and Pro. Obviously the Pro memberships have more benefits and features. The cost of a Pro membership is normally fifty cents per month (wooh, that’s going to bust the bank eh?) via Paypal or AlertPay, but for the first 50 members that stampede in? FREE Pro Upgrades! For Life! Run and get your FREE Pro Upgrade Account!

PIXEL ADS at pixelads.9planetreviews.com

I have added the ability for everyone to add both paid pixel ads and free pixel ads. Go to this link and you will see what I mean. The PAID zone is the first area in Grey, the FREE zone is the area in blue-grey just below it. The PAID zone allows you to buy pixels at twenty five cents per block of pixels. You can create your own pixel ad on the fly or you can upload your logo or banner. Just play with it (play in the free zone first, so you get the hang of it before you decide to post your ad in the paid zone).

So for example. Click on Get Pixels up top (once you’re there). Choose the type of zone. You will be able to upload an image. Don’t worry, it gets resized to fit the number of blocks you chose for your area.

So let’s say you chose 9 blocks, a 3 x 3 block. That would cost you 0.25 x 9 = $2.25 USD (and a block that is more visible is 5 x 5 which will cost $6.25). The s/w will let you choose the shape of the Super Block, simply by using your mouse and clicking. If you choose a square block, say, then you must click every single block within that square, else holes will be left (which can make for an interesting effect but am not sure you want that, some will though).

Paid ads last for one year. Free ads last for 60 days. Is that fair? I think so. Let me know if otherwise. Use the Support link just below the blog button up top for feedback and suggestions.

UPDATE:

Ok folks, let’s have some fun with PIXELADS at 9planetreviews.com. Be creative. Play in the FREE ZONE for now, get used to it. Create some really neat graphics and icons. Not everything has to fit into a square or a rectangle after all. Create zig zags, lines, circles, ovals, a circle with a square hole in it. And so on. Let’s see who’s the most creative. I will choose one that I really like and let you recreate that one in the paid area for free, for a full year!

Caution: when possessing a block, the next block that you place or posses has to touch the other block via a side, not an apex or corner as the software will not let you use corners to touch. But am sure some of you will be crafty enough to achieve that effect (hint: matching backgrounds creates an illusion).

If you wish to add more than one FREE pixeladvert then for each one you must use a unique (different) e-mail address.

Right now I have a FREE Zone and a PAID Zone. Am thinking of adding, at the top (so it is first to display) an ULTRA Premium Zone where the blocks cost double that of those in the PAID (Premium) Zone. Sounds good? Now go and be creative. Play. Oh and be sure to check your junk folder for the pixelad activation e-mail. I had one go to my junk folder, so I know.

News: I've added an ULTRA Premium Zone, at the top, where it will cost folks $5 per block and the advert lasts for 3 years. Why? It is the first zone that folks see when they go to the site.

The second zone is the Premium Zone at 25 cents per block and the advert lasts for one year.

The third zone is free (2 months).

PROGRAMME REVIEW: AdGateWorld (.com)

This one is being heavily advertised right now and is being touted as an ASD clone.

Here is something interesting: "It's run by Professionals who were big players in ASD and know the pitfalls as they went through them."

Really!? Well rob me blind! "Know the pitfalls"???? The only real pitfall was that ASD was set up as a scam along with the other scams that the guy has run or was running! So what darn pitfalls are these so-called "Professionals" talking about? That statement is just meant to lure you in.

"....this program is operating outside of the United States which means the SEC (Security Exchange Commission) cannot interfere!" Sure. But that is no protection. If the Authorities decide to shut it down? They have very long arms.

Well, there is nothing really to review right now as they will be launching in about a month.

Here is a teaser on the site: "Stop being an unpaid viewer of daily advertisements and secure your share of the $21 Billion Dollar advertising industry."

Of course that is a lie in plain sight. A lie you say? Yes, a lie I say. How much of that 21 Billion dollar pie slice represents the advertising industry on autosurfs, surfs, and Social Network sites? Probably close to zero. Not even worth mentioning. Why? Because just think of the folks who are using those sites! They are mostly gamblers, Affiliate Marketers, Network Marketers, and basically folks that are trying to convince folks who are also trying to convince other folks to join their programmes, matrices, MLMs, NMs, lists, and so on. In other words, they are NOT the folks who are out there shopping, trying to find products they want to buy, you know... the rest of the $21 Billion industry!

You see, that's one reason why ASD failed. They tried to bring in REAL advertisers.. .and those folks lost interest after they figured out who the Audience were. And the Audience turned out NOT the audience they were targeting! But of course, as usual, I could be way off on this... right?

So don't be fooled by such foolish statements.

Now, put all that aside. If you simply wish to advertise your particular opportunities that you are into, then sure, a site like that will do you just fine! You may even be able to make some money from it before it too collapses. To that end am probably going to play in it when it launches, just for a bit. One or two red flags and am gone (and will also tell you about it when I see those red flags). Right now they are still not yet opened, but in pre-launch, so you can't really lose anything. I’d go for it. And I did.
