How It Works
There are 16 different forums in the Banjo Hangout discussion area. A forum sponsor gets an ad displayed at the top of all page views within the forum they sponsor. An ad consists of a small graphic, a title, and some descriptive text, all linked to the sponsor's website. Ads are not animated.
With approximately 2.1 million page views spread across the forums each month, this is a significant amount of exposure!
Creating and Editing Your Ad(s)
As a forum sponsor, you are given access to simple web-based tools for maintaining your ads. These tools make it easy for you to add/edit/delete your ad text, links, and graphics anytime you'd like!
You can run one ad, or set up multiple ads which the system will display in a rotating fashion (that is, the ad will change on each page view).

Forum Sponsorship Costs
Cost is determined by the amount of traffic each forum receives. "Impressions per month" is the minimum number of ad views you can expect to receive each month if you sponsor a particular forum.
