ComputorEdge Banner Ads

ComputorEdge  Banners ads are the small graphic ads on the right-hand side of this page. They are ideal for sponsors who offer a brief message and need either targeted or wide exposure thoughout the site. A banner can be linked directly to the sponsors site or to a sponsors Web page in the Product Index. A banner may be purchased for as little as $50/month if purchasing targeted columns, such as "Wally Wang's Apple Farm," an Apple Macintosh column. High traffic columns, such as Digital Dave, charge a higher rate. The banner can be targeted by geographic region or cover all  ComputorEdge  regional sites.
