Advertising on The Reload Bench
The banner script is setup into four categories. These categories are "static", "gb", "links", and "all".

Banner Categories:
  • The static category is for all the cartridge information pages.

  • The gb category is for the Guest Book, and all Guest Book Archive pages.

    The gb category is NOT included with any advertising agreement and is used solely at the discretion of the reloadbench.com administrator/webmaster.

  • The links category is used for the pages within the Links and Downloads section of the site.

  • The all category is used for all the Reload Bulletin Board pages.

    As of 01/17/09, there are 201,000 plus posts with 6100 plus members that make up the bulletin board. The board is continually increasing in size as new topics are created throughout the various forums.

Banner limits & restrictions:

  • The total number of banners (advertisers) will be kept to a maximum of 5 (p/ category) at any given time.
    Once the advertisers banner expires, the next banner in the queue will take its place.
    If there are no additional banners in the queue, a new banner may be placed into the rotation at the discretion of the administrator/webmaster.

  • All banners are subject to approval by the administrator/webmaster prior to being displayed.

  • All banners MUST reside on the reloadbench.com server.

  • The actual dimensional size of the banners should be 468 pixels in width by 60 pixels in height.
Banner Reports:

Daily and Monthly reports will be made available to all advertisers. These reports will be stored on the reloadbench.com server in a password protected directory viewable through your web browser. A username and password, along with the URL of the reports, will be emailed to you upon the start of your banner ads.

Use this link to see an Example Daily Report.

Advertising Package/Prices:
  • Monthly:   $20 Per Category. 
  • Quarterly: $60 Per Category, $50 Each Additional Category. 
  • Semi-Annual: $110 Per Category, $75 Each Additional Category. 
  • Annual:     $200 Per Category, $150 Each Additional Category. 


Advertising Agreement:
  • Your account (advertiser) is activated once the payment process is complete. Banners will start being displayed within one business day of account activation.

  • If payment is made (via U.S. Post Office) in the form of a personal check, your account will be activated once your check clears. If payment is made in the form of a Bank Check, Money Order, or Certified Check, your account will be activated once it has been received.

  • If payment is made via PayPal, your account will be activated once a payment confirmation notice is sent to us from the reloadbench.com PayPal account.

  • Upon account activation, you will receive an email with the URL of your Banner Report page. A username and password will be included, as this is a password protected directory.

  • A monthly account starting on January 1, 2009 will end on January 31, 2009. Adding and removing banners from the rotation is a manual process and the banner duration may be extended by a day or two at no additional cost.

  • There are times when the server might be experiencing technical difficulties. This is something that is beyond our control. If the server goes down (for whatever reason) for more than 1 hour within a one day period, your account will be credited one day.

  • The account agreement is for displaying your banner for a predetermined period of time based on the advertising package you purchased. There are no guarantees or promises of a specific number of banner impressions or click-through's. The statistics of the existing banner impressions and click-through's over the last year (01/01/08- 12/31/08) are listed below. Please review them before making any decisions.

  • Some advertisers may have several banners created for their site. If your account has a duration of more than one month, you may change your banner in the middle of your account duration. Changing banners will be limited to only once per month. These banners need to meet he same criteria as banners for new accounts. They would have to first be approved by the administrator/webmaster, and meet the physical and file size limits. If you elect to change banners after you account is activated, you must email me and include the URL of the new banner.

  • You may cancel your account at any time. A refund will be issued for all unused, full months that remain on your account. All refunds will be mailed via the U.S. Post Office (return receipt mail) and the payment will be in the form of a U.S. Post Office Money Order. To cancel your account, please include your full name and mailing address in the cancellation email. Monthly accounts are non-refundable once your banner starts being displayed on the reloadbench.com web site. All other accounts will be refunded at the following rates:

    Quarterly paid accounts will be refunded $20.00 for each unused month in your account.
    Semi-Annual paid accounts will be refunded $18.34 for each unused month in your account.
    Annual paid accounts will be refunded $16.67 for each unused month in your account.

  • Any personal information that is shared with reloadbench.com in regard to this advertising agreement is kept strictly confidential. Nothing is shared with any outside persons or parties, unless required to by law. Your privacy, and the privacy of all who visit this site are very important to us.
