Natural
Family Online chose to use advertising on our website for two
reasons:
Opportunities
We believe in quality, affordable
web advertising for small businesses. While others may charge
much more for less traffic, we try to remain fair and increase
an advertiser’s chances of profitability. We choose to fly
banners and ad boxes on all pages to help our loyal advertisers.
Allowing
advertising also increases our ability to trade ads with another
website as well as offer our regular contributors and staff something
extra by offering free advertising.
Financial
While NFO is
mostly run by volunteer staff, it can be quite expensive. NFO
is quite large and hosting is expensive while additional expenses
like original articles can total upwards of $400 or more per month.
We’ve chosen to use affiliates like Babababies
free websites, Amazon.com and Powells.com, Google
Adsense, Balter
Catalogue Company products, and other programs to help us
pay our monthly expenses. We carefully monitor advertising as
best we can to ensure it's appropriate for our goals.
We
hope you understand and support our choices to use advertising
here at NFO.
