What are ADLinX?
When you advertise your Art or Craft business with A&CNet, you're placing your name, and your art or craftworks' and services' information in the hands of a targeted, already-interested Art & Craft public for a very low cost. By advertising on www.artsandcraftsnet.ca which has strong representation in the search engines, you can attract customer traffic that otherwise may not have known about your business nor found you easily on the internet.
We're a new business but growing fast. We spend a good portion of our own budget ensuring that the A&CNet website has excellent Page Rank, increasing popularity, and is highly searchable. We're not just trying to get high-ranking on a few "pet" keywords or common search phrases we can claim as our own… We're always tweaking and enhancing our site and our search engine optimization techniques to obtain and maintain as high ranking as possible on "anything searched for" related to our 50+ business services or the artists and craftspeople that we serve.
Our approach was to create a "simple is best" advertising concept that is both intelligent, yet common-sense driven, and therefore more effective. The ADLinX ads you see on key pages of our website will directly relate to the type of content on those pages – no irrelevant ads pertaining to something else that have "bought their way" intrusively onto the page you're viewing!
Colorful banner ads can make for some nice graphic variety on web pages. However, they can sometimes become very distractive and make a page look very cluttered and unfocused. It is also a well-known fact that image-free/text-based ads or image-reduced ads perform much better than traditional banner ads. They yield click-through rates typically 4 to 5 times higher than the Industry standard!
We can post any existing banner ad or text-based ad you may have that meets our ad and file size criteria, or better yet, we'll create an ideal ADLinX ad for you, if you'd like.
- You will NOT see any of our site pages overcrowded or overwhelmed with advertisements. We have no intention to be one of those kind of sites!
- ADLinX are NOT banner ads nor are they only some text with a link.
ADLinX are A&CNet's custom text-based advertisements that can include a small logo or image representative of what you do, and some primary "selling proposition" text or a slogan or motto related to your art or craft business. They are each unique by content but will purposely have a 'sameness' by style.
ADLinX Ads are —
- Ideal for building awareness and for promoting your art or craftworks or other business services
- Perfect for generating inquiries and quickly driving traffic to your website
- More relevant and more cost-effective
- A great way to promote your business in a way that respects a user's web experience
We strategically place all ADLinX Ads on key page real estate within the A&CNet website for maximum impact and sales-draw. Our objective is to maximize your audience viewing and to obtain as many visitor 'click-thru's' directly to your website, as possible.
- For maximum focus, we purposely limit the number of ads that we will allow for any given page
- We will display your ads for an entire year in most cases
