e. Photography Retail Affiliation
Increase Sales! Increase Profit! On a budget? This is prefect!

The Photography Blue Book web site started officially in August, 2000 and it is just me who created it, not a company. I am proud to say that it has exceeded my own personal expectations on just the visitor volume alone.

What the site primarily does is it prices cameras and lenses out in MSRP, Used, Street and Auction prices as well as provides a good description and a photo of the item as well.

What the site does not do is sell anything from my site and that is where the Retail Affiliation programs come in.

Our visitors come from all around the world and they get excited about the product they see and want to buy it, but the big problem is I don't sell it. So thousands of potential customers are dispursed across the internet to find a store that will sell it to them.

My goal is to raise enough money for the site to get off of a free-server and get a .com address for it so our visitors can have more speed and convenience.

We are always looking for Photography Retail Affiliations packages so that we can offer your retail business a potential sales boost from our many visitors to the blue book site. We will put a link to your site and/or products in The Photography Blue Book so that our visitors not only have immediate information about the product they are interested in purchasing but also know where to get it from right away.. YOU.

Currently, we offer 2 Retail Affiliate programs to choose from:

Program #1: Merchant Affiliates Flexi-Link:

..... The Merchant Affiliate Flexi-Link program is designed for Maximum exposure and flexability for you. You can have a direct link off of any item (like Fig. #1 below) in the whole blue book or just a few items. Currently, there are 882 Flexi-Link ads on our pages and as we add even more sections, this number will grow and your Flexi-Link ads will be placed on the new pages at no extra cost. It will appear as Fig. #2 (minus the yellow box). This can be in upwards of hundreds of logos all for the same price. It is entirely up to you on what sections and products you would like to have your logo included on. You may have 1 Merchant Affiliate Link picture/button per item at a maxium size of 128x31 pixels. (you may design and use anything from 1-128 by 1-31 pixels).

This program is offered for $25 to $50 USD a month based on how often the logo changes and/or is updated.

Also don't forget this added bonus: We are using 4 web servers with different addresses to devide the triffic, thus you get x4 more ads for FREE! (for a total of upto 3,528! Flexi-Link ads)


Please note: This is a shared program and your link may placed aside another. Minimum 1 month. Graphic is to be apporved by myself. I reserve the right not to refuse a graphic or customer.

Program #2: Merchant Affiliate Flexi-Banner Advertising:

..... The Merchant Affiliate Flexi-Banner program is designed for Maximum exposure and flexability for you as with our Flexi-Link program but with a difference, Size, Location and Placement. Sometimes Location is everything and you need something BIG and BOLD to attract customers to what you have to offer. This is where our Flexi-Banner Advertising comes into play.

The Flexi-Banner is not shared and displays your ad 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Currently, there are 121 banners on our pages and as we add even more sections, this number will grow and your banner ad will be placed on the new pages at no extra cost. The Flexi-Banner is a maxium size of 602x59 pixels pixels but can be adjusted in size. (you may design and use anything from 1-602 by 1-59 pixels). It will appear as Fig. #3 & Fig. #4 (minus the yellow box).

This program is offered for $25+ USD a month based on how often the logo changes and/or is updated. Since there is only 1 spot open per month, it will be awarded to the highest bidder as per: yahoo.auctions. It's Easy and Fun! Click here: Flexi-Banner Program Auction to make/see a bid (only available 1st to the 10th of each month). Auctions for this spot will start at $25 (for upto 4changes a month) and last 10 days starting at the 1st of the month running untill the 10th of the month.

Also don't forget this added bonus: We are currently using 4 web servers with different addresses to devide the triffic, thus you get x4 more ads for FREE! (for a total of upto 484 banners!)

Please note: Winners of the Flexi-Banner program will have their ads put up for 1 whole month (or upto 30 days) starting on the 1st week of the month. Rather than wait 10 days for the auction to be over, you may elect to enter a "Buy" amount based on the worth of the program at the time. Graphic is to be apporved by myself. I reserve the right not to refuse a graphic or customer. This program may change.
