Forum Advertising

SportsMaserati.com will be changing the way that the forum is funded from Feb 2012.

The success has been phenomenal, growing to be the largest Maserati forum in the UK in its first year and projected to over take the current largest global English speaking forum during January 2012*

We thank you for your support during its creation, and now is the time that we need to push on and secure the sites future.

With Maserati SPA pushing up global manufacturing aggressively over the coming years, this will have a bearing on the growing audience that this forum attracts, which is great news for all of us.

From 1st February 2012, we will be introducing paid sponsorship at a rate of £75 per month plus VAT for your ad solely to appear in a single forum of your choice and £150 per month for the main forum home page (not shared or changing on refresh with link to your website). With this you will receive, click through reports on request for any given period in that year. Payments will be setup by direct debit and paid on the first of the month and will be yours for the entire year. We do expect you to honor your annual commitment for 2012.

As a special bonus, if you pay for the full 2012 year in one payment (11 months), we will be giving you 2 months free. You will also get unlimited access to our NEW ‘Trade Classifieds’ section. This will entitle you to post unlimited items for sale in this NEW section. It will be categorised into cars and parts. All classifieds ads have to be of relevant nature to the forum, ie Maserati, Alfa, Lamborghini, Ferrari or Lancia. They will be listed in a similar way to AutoTrader, with a thumbnail pic, title, price, intro text and features such as engine size, colour etc. Selecting an item will then take you to the full product description, with multiple pictures. There will also be a scrolling box on the home page advertising random classifieds, situated where the current free ads are, top right. This will all be managed by you the user and will be restricted to only paid sponsors. We may introduce a Paypal payment system over time if its deemed necessary, but for now, all payment and disputes will be the sole responsibility of the vendor and purchaser outside of the forum.

We are operating on a first come, first served basis, so don't delay if you have a specific forum that you would like to sponsor.

Ads can be email to this address, or we are willing to generate you a static ad free of charge if you send us your text and images required. Animated ads can be catered for at a price of £150.

The dimension (727x87px) and position of you add can be seen by visiting the forum home page, see below for an example:



The smaller square free ads in the top right will be removed from 1st January 2012.

All prices are subject to VAT and will be supplied with a full VAT invoice.
