For another monthly installment of our recommended resource we have reviewed InForum Advertising. We went to them with a $500 Marketing Campaign to advertise T35 Hosting. The campaign lasts a week and contains dozens of posts solely advertising your website. In the week time and including a few days after the campaign was over, we received around 5000 visitors. We still continue to receive a few visitors a day from the forum posts and are probably reeking the SEO benefits.

Here is the breakdown:
Average Price Per “Web Hosting” Click In The Industry: $2.50
Money Spent With InForum Posting: $500
Targeted Visitors: 5,000
Price Per Visitor: $.10
# Hosting Plans Sold: 17
# Free Hosting Clients: 42

Okay, so the results weren’t as extravagant as the acne example they shown on their website, but it still beats any other advertising campaign we have tried. We are continuing with them for another week to see how next campaign’s results compare.

Campaigns start at under $100 and include extra bonuses for reaching price checkpoints. Now want to hear the best part? Use coupon “webhostingmind” to get 25% off! This coupon is only valid for 10 uses so try it before the limit is reached.

I just got another yahoo search marketing coupon in my email so I thought I’d share it with you guys. Coupon code ‘USCJ16′ gives you $25 credit on a “self service” program or a $50 credit on a “Fast Track” program. The code might expire very soon, so if you always wanted to sign up for yahoo search marketing, this is your chance! Just click the banner below for the offer to be automatically applied (if it’s not, just enter the coupon code on checkout).

I personally use yahoo search marketing to advertise T35 Free Web Hosting, and it has done very well. I don’t seem to get as much volume as I get on google adwords but the cost per conversion is a lot cheaper. To sign up with the promotional offer just click the banner below; it should automatically apply the latest discount.

It’s now been a full 3 months since we removed ads from T35 hosting member pages… Time to do a follow up test and see how we did! To back up a little bit, the removal of all ads from member pages was one of the biggest decisions I have ever made at T35 Hosting. Pop-up Ads (and Banner Ads before them) have been the primary driver of revenue at T35 since the beginning.

In fact, without the ads, we can’t even cover our costs and the issue of sustainability comes into question. Unfrtonuatly, removing ads was perhaps the only way to stay competitive and try to grow the business while facing increased competition from the likes of google and yahoo.

Fortunately, we came up with a multi-pronged solution to supplement revenue enough to keep the company running. The new plan involved increased monetization of our 404-not-found pages while at the same time banking on an increase in member count. We also decided to keep our “hosted by t35” footer text link and supplementing it with several other small links.

These new ads did not even come close to replacing pop-up revenue, but the hope of this bold plan was to increase membership and overall traffic to offset the loss of revenue. So enough with all of this talk… let’s see the results!

Although traffic didn’t increase as much as expected, we still saw a decent boost! Hopefully the increase continues in the upcoming months. Was removing ads a good decision? Well, I can tell you that all of our members have been ecstatic about the removal of the ads. At the same time, daily sign ups are at an all time high. Was this a good decision? Only time will tell. For the time being, I am satisfied with the preliminary results.
