Hello All

Need some suggestions please, my forum is quite popular and now nearly reaching 10 years old and people in my area pay to advertise various services on my forum and I am now thinking of how to give them more bang for there buck and more exposure.

Right now I have around 13 banners rotating in the top right hand corner of the screen and I offer what I call a business advert to these services which consists of a post in a special sub forum I have made just for these type of adverts for members to browse through but unless they keep them updated they don't get enough use.

I am sure I have seen on other forums banners appear when you search for threads or threads posted are related to that type of service or product, IE someone searches for Butter Fingers candy and someone with a banner selling candy bars appears on the screen.

I don't want to overwhelm my members or have annoying pop-ups or anything like that but I would like to make them more aware of the services others are advertising. I often get posts made and members have to point other members towards our banners or adverts.

I would really appreciate some input from you guys or ideas that work on your own forum that I could use?

Thank you very much
