As a member of The Cross Depot Christian Banner Exchange, you agree to display banner ads of other members somewhere on your web site. In return, your web site banner ad will be displayed on the web sites of other members who have joined the exchange. The Cross Depot Christian Banner Exchange uses a 2:1 exchange rate. That means for every two banners you display on your site, you receive one impression on your account. You also receive one click for every two clicks from your site.
You receive 10,000 free impression when you join and 5,000 clicks. You are allowed up to 3 standard (468x60) banners, 3 standard (88x31) micro buttons and 3 side banner (120x240). You have the ability to assign impressions and clicks to each banner as you see fit. You also may have daily stats emailed to your account email address.
You are allowed the following file formats for your banners:
JPG, GIF, PNG, and SWF(Flash)
SPECIAL NOTE:
We provide no support for Flash Banners. Your flash banner must be coded correctly in order for the exchange to track it.
For information how to make the banner track-able please visit
Tracking Macromedia Flash Movies
Once your Cross Depot Christian Banner Exchange code is in place and your banner ad has been approved, your clicks will begin to accumulate within the statistics and populate the exchange.
Unlike most banner exchanges, when somebody clicks a banner on your site, THEY DO NOT LEAVE YOUR SITE! Instead, a new browser window is opened for them to view the other site. After they close that window, they are right back where they were on YOUR site. This insures visitors remain on your site! What you gain is additional exposure to other people who have never visited your web site. For a business site, these are potential new customers!
No inappropriate web sites will be approved. If questionable, we will err on the side of caution. We wanted to tap into the power of banner advertising while insuring we maintain a Christian, family-friendly environment. If you decide to join later, that's OK. As an incentive for YOU to recruit new members into The Cross Depot Christian Banner Exchange, you will earn an additional 500 FREE banner ad credits for each new member that joins by clicking the small logo banner at the bottom of the banners!
