I am happy to report that Nation-Wars has sold it's first ad space..

And i have to say, it was a grand idea..

Cemetary has paid for some space to advertise that his nation is recruiting.. :dblthumbup:

All non premium account member will now see this ad at the bottom of every page.


Nice thinking Cem.. And thanks for advertising with Nation-Wars!!!

Maybe once I get some Income I suppose I can compete.

and are there any other perks available for purchase?

As I understand it, this is only ad space available for advertising. You purchase the advertisement space and I am assuming that if there are more than one, it would liikely rotate between ads or something such as that.

The ad space is strictly an income base for the servers and the game. It really isn't a "perk" for sale, as I wouldthink any acceptable ad may be displayed on the site.

Typically that is between the owner of the site and the advertiser. You may want to contact mr p via pm or email to ask that question. I would also assume that this advertising system has not been completely set up so I would assume that any resonable offer would be accepted. but typcally ads are based on ad views or CPM. For example a typical cost would be $10 per cpm or $10 every time your add is shown 1000 times.

But again I think it would only be respectful to neg prices privately.

The banner really looks like some 4-year-old did it :P
As far as I know png has an ability to have transparent background so this banner wouldn't look so crappy with the other themes except black.
And btw I think paint sucks (or whatever basic paint program is used on Mac) if your IQ is more than 20 or so :D

There is no advantage other then he is legally paying to put up a recruiting banner. When cem first hit me up on it, i thought it was a great idea and can't believe myself or anyone else didn't ever think about it.

Right now ad space is limited. At most (if it didn't look crappy) there would be room for 6 ads. Size has to be 234x60 and it has to be in jpg or gif. The reason it is in png at the moment is cause i am testing a few things.

Now, if this idea takes off and people want to do it. I'm thinking of maybe making a "Ad recruitment" page ingame. The whole page would be filled with banners asking you to join. The game already has a recruitment program, but this would allow people to make banners that would be posted on a single page. If we did it this way, then there would be a set price.. But let's see if cemetary's idea interest anyone else..

As long as it's clean and links to a clean site you can do as you want..


so how much is an ad?

Seeing we are just starting out with all this and i don't have a counter or anything set up yet (in progress) ad space is pretty cheap. If you want a quote send me a PM and i'll give it to you.

If you read the first part of this thread you will see that they said it needs a lot of work. I needed to get something up, so cem just through it together quickly.. I am not responsible for making these ads. You have to make them.

lol i got pres' message saying he needed the ad banner so he could put it up this morning.. i was already 10 minutes late for work so i spent a good 25-30 seconds making a paint banner, and as anton said, we are currently working on a permanent recruitment banner that will e alot better than the current 4 year old one. but i figure it will work for the time being until we finish our new one
