Advertising on TheBookGuide

Why advertise here?
Our pages enjoy high Google ranking, and for many common search terms, we consistently appear near, or at the top. Combined with a sizable readership who actively help us promote the UK's secondhand and antiquarian book trade, we provide an extremely cost-effective way to reach more customers.

Traffic to the site has continued to grow in 2012, with our stats currently showing more than 2,500 unique visitors a day using the site (December 2012). And although Alexa only tracks visitors who have installed their tool bar, our ranking using their metrics gives some indication of the TheBookGuide's relative popularity.

TheBookGuide also tends to attract very focused, highly motivated visitors, who according to Alexa, spend approximately 25 minutes per visit on the site and look at an average of 18 unique pages (December 2012). This means that your potential customers can experience a high level of exposure to your advertising.

What does it cost?
For just £10.00* your advert would be displayed for a week and could be seen by the thousands of dealers, collectors, and readers, who use our site.

As an introductory offer, four or more weekly insertions of your advert will save you 20% and give you the option of a free image background or the inclusion of your logo. *Special rates apply to advertising on TheBookGuide home page - please ask for details.

What do you get?
We will design a 120 pixel wide advert button for you, similar to the examples in the right and left sidebars, incorporating up to 10 words of your choice. However, we are happy to discuss your specific needs and wherever possible, include your own designs, artwork, and company logos.

Your advert button will appear on all the pages of the diary, directory, guide, or calendar of your choice and can be linked to the following:

Auction Diary - up to 60 words describing your auction, added to your listing as soon as you buy at least one week's £10 advert button.** The advert button can be linked to your enhanced listing or to your own website.

Bookbinders Directory - An announcement added to your existing listing (60 word maximum). Or a direct link to your own website.

Bookshop Guide - An announcement added to your existing listing (60 word maximum). Or a direct link to your own website.

Fair Calendar - up to 60 words describing your event, added to your listing as soon as you buy at least one week's £10 advert button.** The advert button can be linked to your enhanced listing or to your own website.

Products & Services - linked directly to your own website.

** It's worth noting that early booking will ensure that your enhanced listing will be promoting your event for many months before your button ad appears.
