    Sticky thread.

    How much do sticky threads (in the hosting advertisement section here) cost and are they generally worth that price?

    They cost $150 per week and can be worth it depending on your business model/service. Just like any business, advertising does not automatically generate revenue by itself.

    Several years ago when I owned a host I utilized stickies. Worked quite well for me but like FernGully said, it all depends on your service.

    Haven't checked the pricing on stickys lately, but last time I remember they were $50-600ish depending on the exact forum. Also some forums have at least a 6 month wait list. Another option would be a corporate membership which for $375 per quarter, you can post ads every 3 days instead of every 7 days.

    Personally I'd go for the corporate membership... Didn't have the best experience when I purchased a sticky, more of a customer service issue.

    Personally I think corporate membership is worth more than sticky thread.

    I also heard they are sold-out for the next 3 years, so very unlikely you can grab one

    I dont know about that, but it is very hard to get them. They are offered on a first come first server basis (just have to keep an eye out for the slots when they become available).
