Digitizers...
If you have a digitizing business, you'll find ATW will soon become your very best source of sales! With a "Business Membership" to ATW you can advertise in our "Daily News" gallery. You can place as many as 3 ads each day in the Daily News. We send an email every morning to our Daily News list subscribers with a link to the morning's Daily News page. When one of our readers clicks on your ad thumbnail they see a blown up view of your ad. When they click again, they land on your website page where you sell that design.
COMPARE THE VALUE! If you advertise on Google Adsense you know it can cost up to $1,000 a month for to get your ad to appear on their pages on a regular basis. You can spend $300 a month to display your ad to just 40 people a day. Do the math... When a potential buyer clicks your Google ad and it costs you 25-cents, you get 1 visitor. Do that 40 times a day and you've spent $10 on Google ads. At the end of 30 days, you've spent $300! I used to advertise on AnnTheGran where I spent $75 a month for one tiny little ad to appear on their links page (http://www.annthegran.com/Links.aspx), but it looks like they've eliminated advertising on that page completely now. That leave the $400 a month option to show on a regular page of their site. You could advertise in a national embroidery magazine where one small ad costs $400 a month. The problem with magazine advertising is that people rarely set down their magazine, walk over to their computer and type in the address they just saw in an ad. In fact, when was the last time YOU did that? And there's a Yahoo group you can pay $25 a month for 1 text ad per week. It's actually a better deal than the other three options above, but it is 1 ad per week, text only. Want 2 ads per week? It's $50 a month.
The cost to advertise on the Daily News is $25/month for up to 93 ads! Plus, our advertising is the most effective method available. It's a PICTURE of your product. The folks who click that picture already know what the design looks like. They're coming to your site to BUY.
Your Customers Are Here Every Day! If you own your own website, you already know that you can track visitors to your site every day. You can see how many there are, where they come from, and where they go next. But did you know that you can see other website's stats too? No, not all their stats, but a comparison of how many visitors are on their site vs yours. Google tracks the amount of traffic coming to your site every day and allows you to compare that number to other sites. That's pretty handy isn't it? Would you believe that ATW is neck-and-neck currently with AnnTheGran.com? They update the stats that they publish every few months and here's the latest 30 day time period their currently showing comparing ATW with AnnTheGran...

In fact, we've been getting almost as many visitors to our site for several years except for the short time where we moved some of our content off to another site of ours. We moved it back in June of 2008 and in August of 2008 we surpassed the volume of site visitor for the first time. With new things we're doing on ATW, we expect this chart will be even more interesting in the coming months!
The Bottom Line For Your Digitizing Business
You make sales when people see your designs.
If you advertise in the Daily News, you will make more sales.
In fact, I'll even give you a...
You simply copy the web page address you want the new customers to land on and paste that web page address into the box on the ad upload page along with the picture of your item for sale. I've made a tutorial showing how to do it step-by-step. There is a link to the tutorial on the Daily News Ad Upload Page. While your looking around, take a look at who else is already advertising in the Daily News!
