ALL adverts require payment please.

The recent gathering of stats showed that there are in excess of 3000 members logging in to the forum every day. This does not include about 300 guests that do not login but just read the forum.  
On the subject of stats. Here is an amazing one.  EZTV had a banner put on the forum 11 months ago in that time it has being displayed 2,239,488. Yes you read it right over 2 million times. A more recent banner is PINNAPPLE KICHENS. They have had a banner since END OF MAY 2018 they have had their banner displayed 627,098 times.

One huge advantage recently pointed out by one of the advertisers is that people that have used his service can access the forum and post their recommendations. Something that newspaper or radio advertising cannot offer. He also said that it has the additional advantage of being able to post directions to their business premises as there is no word limit. A localised map can even be uploaded to show exactly where your business is.

Since myself and Sharron took over the forum six and half years ago the membership has increased by over 2500. We now have over one and half million pages loaded every month.  More people are accessing the forum than ever before.  The average has gone up from 80 in October 2012 to 234 In August 2018. These are at peak times between 6.00am and 10.00pm and is in a 15 minute period.  The rest of the day averages at about 150 in any one 15 minute period.

If you wish to advertise please contact us on adverts@arboleas.co.uk prior to posting your advert. This will prevent us from moving your post unnecessarily.

The cost of a monthly advert is ONLY 20€

Banner advert prices vary so please ask if interested, the price includes an advert in the commercial section as well as the banner.

Payment can be left in either Total Entertainment. Or you can pay via PayPal. (ask for details)

If there is a banner slot available and you wish to take it up, please get in touch. The new set up for the Commercial section has been well received by the businesses as they are much easier to locate now.

As of 1st December 2010 the following will be implemented:

1. Members that are NOT advertising in the commercial section are not permitted to use their business name or web address as their username or signature

2. All advertisers are reminded that they can only bump their advert twice a month. Unless they are responding to a question from another member, this is totally different. WE DO ADVISE ALL ADVERTISERS TO BUMP TWICE A MONTH. It keeps you business in the minds of the members when they see the thread again.

3. All Bars and Restaurants will be requested to pay for advertising. The Board that includes Charities and bars is ONLY for recommendations of bars and restaurants.

4. If a business that does not advertise in the commercial section has a special event to promote then they must pay the normal monthly fee.
