Hello, I'm thinking about developing a web site about a vacation resort near where I live, and will be offering advertising to businesses who reside there. For example, at this particular resort there are hotels, restaurants, etc. that might be interested in advertising on this Web Site. I was thinking that for every business who wants to advertise, I would create a separate Web page, and put links to this Web Page from my main Web Page regarding the history of the resort, etc. Each of these Web Pages will advertise only one business, and will have photos and descriptions and rates about this business. My question is, how much should I charge for this service? What do other Web Sites charge for this service? Does anyone have any advertising rates regarding something like this? Should you charge $10 per year, or $50 per year, or $200 per year, or "what"? I want to make my rates competitive, but at the same time, don't want to be doing a lot of work and getting nothing in return. Thanks so much... Sam Back to top   Ads Advertising Sponsor John A.

Make the service free, but require the customer to use a code word from your web site to get the special Internet price. Then have the vendor give you some percent of each booking made with the code word, maybe 20%. That way there is no risk to the vendor, and money is paid out only when a sale is made, so there is no hard feelings if things don't work. And trust me, 99.99% of these things never sell a dime worth of service. -john- -- ====================================================================== John A.
