Good Evening;
If you never advertise on the list you can disregard this email! If you do
advertise please read below:
Beginning Monday, April 7, 2014 I will be implementing a paid advertising
program for the Meteorite Mailing List. I've been working on a program like
this for quite a while now but have been struggling with the best way to do it.
I think I've come up with an approach that's both simple and affordable. My
goal isn't to make a lot of money, but rather to cover the costs associated
with Meteorite Mailing List and the related websites. I'd also like to cut
down on the total number of Ads that appear on the list on any given day,
which I think is better in the long run for both advertisers and subscribers
(i.e. improve the signal to noise ratio). Hopefully this new program will
improve everyone's list experience.
Here's how it will work
------------------------------
Ads can be purchased one at a time or in bulk, and payment can be made through
PayPal. The 1 Ad per week limit and the current policy regarding no image
attachments will remain (see policies below). I am considering allowing images
under a certain and also some type of Ad credit for relevant posts but I need
to work on those ideas a bit more. Also, as the majority of members aren't
dealers, but may want to sell something every now and then, everyone will be
provided with 2 Ad credits (free ads) to be used during the year.
Meteorite List Ad Rates
------------------------------------
- One-off Advertising cost
* Per Ad price - $4 via PayPal
- Bulk Advertising options (Pre-paid Ads)
* 12 ads
$35 - Single payment via PayPal ($2.92 per ad)
* 52 ads
$125 - Single payment via PayPal ($2.40 per ad)
Payment won't be required before a One-off Ad is placed, but should be made
within 1 day. Payment for the Bulk Ad options is expected prior to placing the
first Ad. I'll be adding a page to the Meteorite Central website with payment
links each option listed above.
Mailing List ad-related policies
------------------------------------
- 1 Ad per week limit
- Plain text emails only
- No image attachments
- 60k email size limit
- 2 Ad credits per member (to be used during the year)
- Failure to pay for Ads placed on the list will result in member removal.
Please feel free to send me an off-list email if you have any comments,
suggestions, or questions.
Best Regards and Happy Hunting/Collecting!
