Banner Ads

Online ads give high value advertising

Are you a Fairhaven business owner? If so, then the first ad you want is a full listing business ad. Check out For 75 cents a day.... With a full listing ad, you receive a discount on banner ads.

As you can see in the right column, this ad size gives you the advertiser plenty of room to get your sales message to the reader. Nothing subtle here. Up to six ads make a random rotation for positions between the top and bottom of the column. Each time a person views a page the ads will be in different places - thus giving all equal visibility at the top, middle and bottom of the page. No more than six ads will run at the same time. To see this work, click your refresh button now.
