Advertising
Your text-ready or image-ready copy can usually be incorporated as an ad on the FrontPage (FP) and tested in under an hour. The width of an ad is the width of the FP column, approximately 250px wide. The maximum height is 500px.
Your ad, highlighted per your specifications (and our standards), using both color and borders, will stand out and attract attention. The actual setup time may vary depending on the quality of the submission.
Ads will remain on the Current FrontPage (index.html) for two weeks but will remain on the Issue FrontPage permanently.
