Up until a few minutes ago, I'd been using Text Link Ads (TLA) in my upper left sponsors widget. Once someone purchased a link, I didn't have a choice but to keep using them until that person decided not to renew and purchase another month. I now have a choice and I'm not going to use them anymore.

I invite you to take a look at the rates on my Advertise page. I think they're fair and not overpriced at all. TLA was charging $30 for each link (and I got half of that). I'm charging a third of that, and less for other positions.

I appreciate each and every sponsor. Because of the deal I'm getting ready to announce, the first sponsor who signed up with me now has a link in the location that was opened up, in addition to his existing link in the opposite location in the right sidebar. His original link in the upper right sponsors widget is due to expire on November 30th and the new one on the left is also due to expire on the 30th.

If you purchase any text link ad prior to the end of this month, I'll automatically double the period covered. That's my "two for one" deal and my first sponsor has already been automatically included in that deal. What does that have to do with you? If you have an existing text link ad in effect when I announce my next deal, you'll also be automatically included in that deal.

I'll add this to the advertising page later so it'll be easy to find.
