Website Advertising Rates and Specifications
The Seattle Industry Online website gives you, the advertiser, desk-top access to thousands of business people engaged in manufacturing, industrial distribution and transportation businesses in Seattle and the greater Puget Sound region. Unlike most sites, we do not charge you for the number of impressions (the number of times the page with your ad is viewed) but rather for 1 or 3 month blocks of time. This gives you a better value for each advertising dollar. Your ad space will not be shared with any other ads during your paid run time. We ask that you pay for your advertisements before we run them. Three sizes of ads are available on this site: square button, half banner, and footer banner.
