1. How much does a banner cost?
Pricing is based on the location in the site and advertising purpose. Banner placement will involve a "static" not rotating banner promoting your company on selected DSST online pages. The banner can either point to your company's existing homepage, or merely just remain an advertisement. No more than one company will appear on any given page. These fees are good through December 31, 2004.

• General Banner Advertising:

  • $50 yearly fee - cost of primary pages (Swim Info, About Us, News & Events, Swim Tips, Contact Us, Links). 

  • $25 yearly fee - cost of any secondary page within the web site.

  "or"

• On-line Retailers: This pricing will apply to banner promotion that will allow the user to click on your company's banner and be sent to a page where merchandise is sold directly on-line.
