Testimonials

"Blogads.com is the 'Intel-inside' the blog revolution. Banner ads may let you reach customers, but blog ads let you create salespeople. Blog readers are people who like nothing better than talking to others -- both online AND offline. BlogAds.com is the way to go. The selection is incredible and the entire BlogAds.com team have been incredibly helpful in showing us how to get the most bang for the buck from our blog ad campaigns. I've posted at least 500 ads with BlogAds.com since 2004, and the response has been phenomenal. In the time since ActForLove.org began using BlogAds.com, our traffic has increased more than ten-fold. Nothing else has come close in bang for the buck."

"I am so happy with all your company has done for my business. I really can't believe the events that have occurred in the last year.

I started buying blogads in July of 2005 for my online store, White Trash Palace. A few weeks later, I got called by Distinctive Assets, the company that does the events for the Grammy® awards. They'd seen my blogads and wanted my t-shirts in the award ceremony gift bags.

I started getting OTHER phone calls. The Grammy® award gift bag led to a call from a member of the musical group The Black Eyed Peas. Two pairs of custom jeans were made especially for their tour.

Then an article in the Washington Post business section featured my business. Media coverage by most of the major TV networks here in the United States brought in more orders. In addition to coverage in the United States, stories in the Australian and Canadian media have added to the orders.

I went from being a small Kansas City retailer/manufacturer to having orders from around the world. And all this comes from buying Blogads on blogs like Perez Hilton, etc. Only 1% of my ad spend has been elsewhere. I've started other businesses and have hired two people.

Before jumping into online retail, I spent 20 years as a media buyer/planner. Many of my clients were national accounts, name brands. As a media professional, it was my opinion that advertising on blogs would be a great way to reach people who are innovators and early adopters...but I never recommended blog advertising for my clients due to the horrendous process it was to implement the advertising....and then I found Blogads.com. Blogads is the perfect, no hassle solution for advertising on blogs! Thank you for transforming my business."

"My favorite 'buzz seeding' tool currently is the amazing network over at BlogAds.com in part because of the interesting things you can do when you leave the IAB standards behind. ...

People tend to blog about what they see on other blogs they read: the percentage of blog readers who actually also have blogs might surprise you. Call it nepotism, call it a connected community, call it a global feedback loop, call it influencer marketing. So your bonus ripples are that you start seeing blog entries describing the experience of having discovered the campaign (testimonial meets fresh incoming hyperlinks) that typically start with a description of where they heard about it."

"BlogAds has been an enormously successful component of nearly every online media campaign I've developed."

"I'm very pleased with the ROI on Blogads, both in terms of new clients and resumes for our political staffing company. I can spend $250 to $1000 a month on a blog, advertising on right-leaning or left-leaning blogs according to our needs, and connect with visitors who are more literate, more targeted and more interested in politics than on other sites."

"Having experimented with Blogads last year, we've devoted a much-increased portion of our marketing budget to your service this year. Blogads is a great service, simple to use and control. For a niche publisher like our company, Blogads has been a fantastic resource for reaching potential customers we couldn't otherwise hit at affordable prices. I talk Blogads up whenever I can."

"We were very pleased with the Blog campaign for VH1 Celebreality. Blog Ads provided a strong boost of awareness as well as a viral buzz in the weeks leading up to the premiere. The huge number of impressions and solid CTR were also encouraging."

"I love using the blogad combination of image and link-filled text. Blogs are filled with opinion, news, debate, links, humor, passion, information, factoids, personality --compared to all this, traditional IAB units are way too limiting for blog advertising."

"Blogads makes it a snap to create and customize our campaigns, and the traffic they send to our book and author sites is significant. But the best part is being able to share space (mind-space, virtual-space, screen-space) with the bloggers who -- if they embrace our books and authors -- make all the difference."

"I've been extremely pleased with the success of our BlogAds campaigns. No other medium gives us the same level of targeted results."

"My company has only been online 19 days, and sales are way ahead of expectations. I wasted some time with Google AdWords, and then switched to Blogads. All my sales at this point have come through Blogads. Jewelry is not usually an impulse purchase, so my plan is to place the ads in selected blogs and keep them there long term. I really appreciate the Blogads interface. I like being able to change out the ad whenever I want to. It's far more effective than having the viewer see the same thing over and over - particularly when you have a visual product to sell, like I do."

"Businesses and ad agencies that dismiss blogs and blog ads are nuts! Blogads are absolutely phenomenal. Compared with print ads we've run in the Village Voice, blogads target our exact demographic and give four times the 'bang-for-buck.' You are keeping our fulfillment guy extremely busy. Bloggers put us on the map and blogads are definitely keeping us there."

"After my ad for Klezmer Christmas started running yesterday on TalkingPointsMemo, my traffic was up five or six fold. I was up late last night processing orders. This is fantastic. I think blogads are going to be much bigger than banners. You are able to so closely target the sensibility of the people you are advertising to. I just knew Josh's audience would appreciate the humor of my album and I've been proven right."

"Thanks for the blogads service. We've gotten very good CPM and CPC rates this way; it's definitely been helpful to us."

"With blogads I'm getting about 50% of the customers as [name deleted].com delivers... for about 5-10% the cost. Plus it's a better demographic. Buying a Blogad is a bit like getting this really cool person to tell everybody she knows about your work, for the price of a half-can of soda per day. Blogads are the next best thing to word-of-mouth."

"I like Blogads; I'm getting a better click-thru rate on them than I had on BCentral banner ads, for the most part. At least, more people are actually BUYING my books after clicking through. I really wanted to focus to a narrow market, especially L.A.-based media. I know the big money in writing is having movie options on your book. (I've optioned one already), not selling books. So if I can just break even in sales, but expose the books to people who can get me into the movie-making machine, that is what I'm after. I can't get that with the rather broad dispersal in banner advertising."

"As a veteran Google advertiser and guy who understands the importance of anharmonious color schemes in obtaining Ebay Power Seller status, I'm excited by Blogads. Not only is it a chance for the independent businessman to support the independent writer, but blog enthusiasts, comprised as they are of people who, you know, read stuff online and sometimes send Paypal, constitute the best market out there for selling digital goods. Particularly on weeks when their favorites authors take vacation."

"I was pleased with the clicks I got advertising on www.amylangfield.com. Creating an ad couldn't have been smoother. Uploading a graphic and text helped get my message across. Very cost-effective!"
