Advertising Media Kit

BellaOnline is a comprehensive, online Network created by women for women. Our ads pay our hosting fees, and do not exist to make us a profit. Our visitors have made us the 2nd largest women's site in the world because they trust us and respect the content we provide. We are therefore careful about the types of ads we run on our site and shy away from anything offensive or obtrusive.

You can choose up to six sites to target your ad campaign on. This helps to ensure that the visitors who see your ad are the most likely people to appreciate it and click on it. You can choose exactly what sites you want your ad on, and can change your mind as the campaign progresses and you see what works well for you.

We do not have any file size limitations on our ads, but remember, the slower your ad is to load, the less likely a user on dial-up will wait to see it.

Here are samples of the ad sizes we run.

468 wide x 60 high / 728 wide x 90 high ("Banners")
These banners run at the top and bottom of every page on our site. We accept both static images and gently animated files, but we do not accept any flashing or jiggling graphics.

120 wide x 600 high ("Skyscrapers")
These banners can be seen on the left and right side of every page on our site. No flashing or jiggling ads.

Text ads for our newsletters
Each site has a newsletter associated with it. We have a cat newsletter, a dog newsletter, a quilting newsletter, and more. Each editor has her own schedule for putting out her newsletter. Some put them out weekly, others monthly. The best way to find out what the various newsletters are like is to subscribe to a few. Newsletter Listing

Note that because newsletters are completely at the whim of our editors, we do NOT recommend you sign up for advertising solely based on newsletter ads. They are at best considered an "additional bonus" to supplement your graphic ad run. Also, keep in mind that these are text newsletters and therefore text ads. You cannot include any HTML at all, including images. You want to be sure your URL line is under 80 characters long, since many email programs will wrap a line at 80 characters.
