How is my banner advertising seen by so many people interested in rail?

When you place your clickable banner ad at TrainWeb, you are not advertising on just one rail website. You are advertising on more than 1,000 rail related websites! Can any other website seeking your internet advertising dollars make this claim? Thus, placing your ad with TrainWeb will bring your company to the attention of visitors at hundreds of rail related websites!


I only see a few banners on each page. How can TrainWeb tell all its advertisers that their clickable banner will appear on all of these pages?

Unlike other rail related websites, banner advertising was not an afterthought at TrainWeb. We did not design a website for people interested in rail and later add banner ads wherever they would fit. Banner advertising has been integral to the design of TrainWeb from the very beginning and has been incorporated into almost every feature offered by TrainWeb.

From the very beginning, TrainWeb has used a method called "ad rotation" to allow the banner ads from each of our advertisers to take turns appearing on every page at TrainWeb. Using this method, your clickable banner ad will be exposed more than 10,000 times per month to rail enthusiasts. Visitors are exposed to your clickable banner advertising everywhere that they explore throughout TrainWeb!

We built our method of displaying banners into the design of TrainWeb from the beginning. This method of displaying banner ads in "ad rotation" is difficult for other websites to implement if they did not start with it from the very beginning. Thus, no other rail related site will display your clickable banner ad on every page of their website.

TrainWeb also uses "ad rotation" to display your clickable banner ad on EVERY page of EVERY non-commercial rail related website that we host for free at TrainWeb.org and on the main page of EVERY website in the TrainWeb RAILring. That is how we are able to show your banner on all these pages and provide well over 10,000 exposures of your clickbable banner to rail enthusiasts each month!


Can I track how many times my banner is displayed by TrainWeb each month and how many people are clicking on that banner to go to my website?

Yes! Go to http://www.trainweb.com/statistics. Using this reporting tool, you will be able to see how many times your banner is displayed each month and how many people have clicked on your banner to go to your website. Enter www.overlandtrail.com for the URL Address and click the Submit button to see an example report. The banner of every sponsor at TrainWeb is displayed well over 10,000 times per month. The number of clicks received by each banner usually varies between 100 and 1000 per month. Your results will vary depending on the attractiveness of the design of your banner and by how much your banner excites the interests of rail enthusiasts.


Will I know how many sales I am making due to my advertising with TrainWeb?

This is a very difficult issue for us. As mentioned above, when you place your advertising with TrainWeb, you are not just advertising on the TrainWeb site. Your clickable banner advertisement will be seen on hundreds of other rail related websites! It will be seen on hundreds of non-commercial rail websites that we host for free at TrainWeb.org and on the main page of all the rail websites that participate in the TrainWeb RAILring. If you ask your customers where they saw your banner ad, they are likely to mention one of the hundreds of rail websites where we will be displaying your banner. These people will have no idea that the banner was placed on these websites by TrainWeb and will not mention TrainWeb if you ask them where they saw your banner. Thus, our banner advertising program will probably result in many sales for you that will be hard to trace back to TrainWeb itself. All you can do to see the effectiveness of advertising with TrainWeb is to use the statistics reports mentioned in the above section and assume that some percentage of the rail enthusiasts that we send to your website are purchasing from you.
