CocoaJava - Advertising at CocoaJava Information

Free Basic Link Listing
There is no charge for a basic listing on our links pages. When you request that a link be added, we will review the site. If we consider the site to be a valuable addition to CocoaJava we will then add a link to it. To submit a link, send us an email at lori@cocoajava.com. It is very helpful to submit a short description to go along with your link. CocoaJava reserves the right to modify these descriptions to comply with the overall tone of this website.

In return for your free listing, we would appreciate a link back to CocoaJava. On your site you can either use either of the buttons shown below or you can use a text link. Please download this graphic and upload it to your server. Then use the code shown below. Remember to change the img src= path to reference the image on your server.

Your place for chocolate and coffee on the web. Recipes, links, articles, forum discussions, reviews, news, trivia, quizzes, and more!

Enhanced Link Listing
Highlight your listing with bold type and a small graphic for only $20 a year per link. Below is an example of a regular listing, followed by an enhanced listing:

Seattle's Best Coffee
You may have thought that other Seattle company that begins with an "S" was the best. Ms. CocoaJava begs to differ. If you are looking for quality coffee from the Emerald City, this is the link you need to click.

Jeremiah's Pick
This San Francisco roaster uses high quality Arabica beans. For something a little different, try their Chocatal Coffee, which is a blend of coffee beans and cocoa nibs, for a coffee/chocolate blend that's smooth and flavorful.

Paid Advertising
We offer five different size graphic links. Examples of these are shown on this page, along with pricing for each. You supply the graphic to us in either .GIF or .JPG format. We encourage the use of static graphics, so if you have an animated or flashing graphic, we will need to review it first before agreeing to use it. Your ad will be placed on (12) pages of your choice (excluding the main front page) for the prices shown.

Newsletter Advertising
Our monthly newsletter has room for two text advertisements per issue (no graphics, please). The current subscriber base is approximately 500 readers, all of which have actively sought out CocoaJava and requested to subscribe - these are readers that want this newsletter! We use no subterfuge or spamming techniques to build our reader base. $15 per spot, per month gains you this elite audience. Purchase 6 months or more running, and the price will be $10 per month.

Front Page Placement
Placing an ad on our main front page costs more, but ensures you the best possible exposure to our visitors. Annual rates are shown below - pro rated shorter terms are also available.

Banner Ad 460w x 68h = $700 per year
