Commercial Advertising

    The "ads page" was originally conceived to help individual hobbyists like ourselves to find things they need or sell things they DON'T need.
    WE WOULD LOVE TO ADVERTISE YOUR PRODUCTS AND/OR SERVICES, so, we wonder if you would take a minute to read our policy towards commercial advertising??
    We can give you MORE Than just a "business card" sized ad. We have reorganized the "Tip of the Week" on Retiredtractors.com into a helpful "Tractor Tip" page. We are concerned about finding ways to make this site pay for itself. It's still a hobby for us, but we're not going to say it is "ONLY" a hobby. We really enjoy helping newcomers. It is a lot of FUN, but we are supporting the site with a lot of our own time, and money out of our own pockets to keep it online. It's getting expensive, so, our idea is to ask for some sponsors to help out a little. We'd like to do something different from the usual. Rather than running splashy "banners" and ads that nobody reads, We'd like to do sincere endorsements such as these examples:

Tony Carbaugh Enterprises, LLC.
Reynolds Farm Equipment, Inc.
Jackson Lee Pearson
Mainely Magnetos
Deerely Departed
Iron Classics
Old Millmac
Keeping It Green

    At the present time retiredtractors.com gets up to 800 visitors a day. We respond to ALL email questions, even if the answer to the question is already on the site. In other words, if they are looking for something that YOU sell, and they don't see the link to YOUR endorsement, We will either send the person directly to it, or we will "paste in" an answer that contains a link to it, because chances are we have already answered the question by email before. You see, we have been sending our visitors to people like YOU for YEARS now!!
    NEW questions get NEW answers and they become NEW material for the "Tips" page.
    The present rate is $100 per year. You get an endorsement page, a permanent ad on the ads page, and a link on the link page. You become the "sponsor" of the "Tips" page every now and then, you appear on the SPONSOR page, and your logo and link appear at random times in the middle of the home page. Your endorsement page can include anything, within reason, that you would want to see there, especially some of your OWN graphics if you have any. And, of course, it can be updated as necessary. If you don't have a web site, this is a good way to get some REAL exposure on the internet. Oh, and if you WANT to have a web site, we can talk about THAT, too.
    Helping people find what they are looking for is a MAJOR part of what we are trying to do to promote the hobby. If your goods and services fall under more than one category, you will have more than one link, pointing to slightly different versions of your endorsement page.
