We now have Ads!
-
Hopefully there will be a MangoCon ad!

I am learning about adsense and affiliate programs now. I have taken a couple classes and done a bunch of research.

I think the biggest benefit vendors are going to have with advertising on ML is the vetting process. If they are advertising here chances are they are going to be ads for products the user of this forum have heard of or are already asking questions about and recommending. This could be huge in people actually buying/trying those products.

I agree. Obviously sponsored ads have a better Click Through Rate, but Google Adsense also serves relevant ads based on browsing history. Both would work well in tandem.

What makes ML really of interest to potential ad customers is less that the site is full of their potential customers - but that it is full of the potential influencers of their customers. ML is a very influence-heavy community and getting eyeballs and recognition here can go a very, very long way even if the direct product purchases are not coming from here.

We have officially opened ads to multiple vendors, pricing went out to vendors today! Hopefully you will start seeing a variety of different ads soon. As vendors start taking us up on the offer to advertise, we will be able to offer you the community more! Including faster infrastructure to run the platform on, and a full time REAL community manager!
