Is Online Advertising Effective?
The short answer is, "Yes." The long answer is, "Unquestionably." Research on the subject of internet advertising is being conducted all the time. The numbers don't lie and the bottom line is the same: it works. We know that 51% of internet users go online everyday with time spent online increasing steadily. Web advertising is stealing ad dollars from TV and radio while already grossing more than print. Online is the fastest growing advertising segment, and it's no surprise why. 69% of consumers use online information to help them select a specific vendor and product. Last year consumers spent $130 billion on Internet-influenced purchases. So even if you don't have an online store with all the bells and whistles, being online helps business. Studies show that audiences prefer advertising that relates to a site's content, and pay more attention to ads on sites they trust. As a sponsor on a website for crime reporting, you'll be right where the community goes for information.
How Can I Use the Site For My Business?
You can save yourself time and money by promoting your business with this new crime reporting technology. Your advertising dollar will go much further when it is directed toward those in need of security. Not only will this technology benefit your company financially, but you will have the satisfaction of knowing your services are helping to protect the lives of Dallas citizens.
Visitors can use the CrimeReportsLive website advertiser directory just like they use any business directory--to find product and services from trusted businesses. Advertising only matters if it builds your business; no one knows that better than the CrimeReportsLive. That's why the CrimeReportsLive ad program offers so much more than banner ads.
What Are the Advertising Options?
The CrimeReportsLive ad program includes a number of options with varying features and pricing in order to get a variety of businesses involved. The new CrimeReportsLive.com offers 3 sizes of Display Advertising ranging in price per month. They include space for your company logo, web and email links, downloadable documents and more. Display Ads are organized by Product/Service categories (like, "Alarm Systems" or "Locks," for example) to help visitors find the vendors and information they need quickly. Classified Advertising on CrimeReportsLive.com provides room for full contact information with links, plus images and other features. Classifieds range in price per month and, like the Display Ads, are separated by Product/Service category to effectively direct visitors. The new site also offers Banner Advertising in 6 sizes ranging in price per month. Banners appear on CrimeReportsLive content pages such as Case Studies, Tips and others. With so many options there's plenty of room in CrimeReportsLive.com for everyone to advertise.
