Forum Advertisements

I've been clicking the advertisements in the top right of the forum just out of curiosity, because if I'm honest, my G.A.S. is pretty controlled by lack of budget... but a guy can dream!

I was just wondering if the ads are pay per click or not? Even though I don't plan on spending money willy nilly at the sites that are advertised, I thought if they were pay per click I could browse more than I normally would in order to support the forum.

They are forum sponsors who pay a flat fee to advertise and post here in Marketplace.

As Todd mentioned (^), they pay to be Forum Sponsors. That enables them to have those links and also to put their website links in their signatures as well (not sure if non-sponsors can do that?).

I have no idea if there's any compensation from a click.

Welcome to the AGF, Naz, and help yourself to the clicks. Above information is correct and we have the best sponsors around!

The only commercial links allowed in signatures are for sponsors and the sites of musicians who are strictly advertising their music without lessons.

The rules may answer some of your questions. Enjoy the AGF.
