Welcome to the Podium Cafe, and thanks for your interest in advertising with us. We are a unique website where fans of Pro Cycling can catch up on news, post their own ideas, and chat with each other. Thanks to the numerous interactive tools, members can create their own blog within the blog. Visit times are currently averaging over nine minutes. It's a cafe, after all.

Our current rates are as follows:

Standard: 150x200 pixels
$65 / 1 week
$120 / 2 weeks
$220 / month
$500 / 3 months

Hi-Rise: 150x600 pixels
$130 / 1 week

Mini: 150x100 pixels

And what do you get for your money? For a one-week placement you can expect a minimum of 40,000 page views, based on March 2008 numbers. This was actually our second-busiest month ever, despite the fact that the Cycling season is just getting started. All indications are that traffic is on pace to nearly double last year's numbers, and actual page view totals during the key months of April-September will be much higher. See our most recent chart or browse our SiteMeter for further information.

One final word about our community: approximately 70% of our audience comes from the United States; another 9% from Canada, 3% from Australia, and 15% from the UK and Europe. Go here to see distribution info.

The mechanics of ad placement are simple: I make arrangements to receive images directly, and accept payment through PayPal. We have no restrictions that I am aware of regarding special graphic effects.
