The Most Expensive Link - PR10

limcs · #1 (**permalink**) 21-10-2006, 02:17 PM

It's StatCounter. My first stats provider few years ago. Well, few days ago I visited their site, and they have a PR10! (which is reasonable since everyone that use their stats need to provide a link back).

I noticed too they have a sponsor area under "Recommended" section. So upon my curiosity, I shoot their advertiser team an email to see how much the link cost. Just now, I got my reply:

Quote:

Thanks for your interest in StatCounter advertising!

When you advertise with us, your ad doesn't just go on the front page, but
on nearly every public page of our website. We reserve that prominent
"RECOMMENDED" section for quality businesses that offer our members products
and services they can use. For just 2,000 EUR per month, your website can
join them, exposing it to over 1,200,000 pageloads per day!

We don't have any specific CTR figures because we link directly to our
advertisers - links we can't measure - but the majority of our advertisers
continue to renew with us each month.

We currently offer text-link ads which our sponsors have been quite pleased
with, however, due to the limited space available, we must be very selective
about the advertisers we take on. Your website must be at least a pagerank
5, and provide a great webmaster service that we think our members will find
useful. That guarantees a better return on your investment!

If you think your site can benefit from this phenomenal exposure, please let
me know!

If you are lazy to read the whole quoted reply from their advertising team, the link cost 2,000 EUR per month, which is...around *ahem RM10,000 per month ( RM9,323.47 to be exact).

Now who's interested?
