Ok, I withdraw the comment, but still...

I wonder how many people click on those ads since a lot of people who surf here are just web host owners who are in direct compeititon with the ads.

I've clicked on them. I'm not a provider, so I can see where they work. Just checking out NT hosting plans, but too pricey for my taste. I'm always looking at plans offered by hosts here.

ads are ok until they in the right side of the logo. every ad takes space on the top and also stuck the browser for some seconds.
placing ads is not wrong. after all every body wants some money
I think some dedicated provider will get new customers out of this forms. But as most people are web hosts here they know in's and out's of hosting industry.
fine no more comments . . .

So where are the pricing for banner ads? Are all hosts welcome to have an ad? Are we still allowed to give a bad comment to hosts in the ads or are they now faultless like the ***** ads on Host Directories? Just curious.

Yes, im also curious for how much this costs, i have not seen it anywhere on the page.
They can probably afford to charge alot because its such a targeted audience.
I applaud Matt and the gang for putting up banners.
Whats the big deal, every site ont he net has banners..
I do wonder how effective they would be though, seeing as how even when new visitors see the ads, they go in the offers forums and see 50other offers countering the banner, and those ones are free.

Comments: I don't think anyone should change how they comment, as I'm not going to change the way I moderate the forums.

Will hosts that advertise here be able to post how the experience went? Or is that too much of a conflict of interest for WHT?
I always read with interest about hosts' experiences with banner ads on hosting directories, I would be interested in hearing about how much of a cost/benfit ratio a host got from advertising here.

I apologise to all hosts who have not received a reply to their advertising inquires. I will get round to replying eventually and I will post some ad information on the site shortly.
