Success
With Our Subscribers-
I have had great success with the Holistic
Wisdom Journal which we started not that long
ago. The spring of 2003 we had 25,000 subscribers and that
number has been growing at the rate of 3,000 -5,000 new
subscribers a month (and that number has been increasing
with our constantly increasing traffic to our site as well!)
We have a very strong following of loyal newsletter subscribers
and actually receive hundreds of eMails every day from them
with positive feedback and requests for more products and
information!
Articles-
This is one of the best ways to advertise for a few reasons.
1) When
you write an article that has useful information, links
to resources and your products you can quickly establish
a rapport and trust with your potential customer.
2) You
can elaborate on why one would consider products that you
sell when discussing the topic it is related to and provide
testimonials. People are much more impressed with a meaningful
and informative article than a little ad.

Frequently
Asked Questions
Do
You Sell Pop Ups?

not sell pop up advertising. We only use one pop up to promote
our own newsletter. Like many of our web visitors, we find a lot
of pop ups annoying.
How
Many Listings May I Have?
You may have
multiple listings. How many will be determined at the time of
your application as we want to make sure that our web site is
not over cluttered with advertisements. Therefore, it will be
decided at the time of your proposal to advertise with us.
Where
Can I Expect My Links To Be Listed?
We are very flexible and open to requests, but generally we will
list your links from any of the pages linked to our resources,
articles, and newsletter pages-
For example,
let's say you sell penis enlargement products... then you may
want to link your ad to our article on penis enlargement or to
men's sexual dysfunction issues.
You are certainly
welcome to look through our site and request a specific page,
or you can ask what we might recommend based on your products
and what pages we are getting the most traffic on.
Do
You Give Refunds?
Once you place
your order with us we will begin the process of getting your ads

How
Many Web Site Visitors Will See My Ad?
The answer
to this question varies. It depends on what web site you choose
to advertise on, what web pages on that web site your ad is on
and what our traffic is like at the time that your ads are running.
Our sites get thousands of hits per day but it is very difficult
to give exact numbers as it is constantly fluctuating. Also, we
run our sites on pay-per-click search engines in addition to being
well indexed on Yahoo!, Google and other top search engines. We
sometimes run larger campaigns on the weekends on our pay-per-click
search engine accounts which drastically increases our traffic
at those times.
Will
I Receive A Reminder To Renew My Ad(s)?
Yes, we will
send you a reminder eMail several days before your ad campaign
ends to give you the opportunity to renew your ad or submit a
new one.
May
I Pay For More Than 30 Days Of Advertising At A Time?
Yes, you may
pay us in advance for up to six months of advertising.
Do
I Get A Discount For Ordering Advertising For More Time?
Yes, if you
order advertising for three months or more you will receive 20%
off your total advertising fees. You must however order it at
one time to receive the discount. Month to month payments do not
qualify.
What
Types Of Advertising Would You Not Approve Of For Your Web Sites?
We have put
together some general guidelines below that will assist you in
determining if we would be likely to accept your advertising proposal
on our web sites. Fell free to contact us with any questions you
may have regarding our policies.
General
Guidelines
1)
Remove all child pornography on your site: Holistic Wisdom,
Inc. is a member of ASACP, the largest and most well-known anti-child
pornography movement in the adult web industry. Sites that contain
sexually explicit conduct to any persons under eighteen years
of age, whether between persons of the same or opposite sex will
not be accepted, and likely will be referred to law enforcement
and other groups such as ASACP and Anti-Pedophile Network.
2)
Illegal obscenity: Any service which presents, links to,
or otherwise promotes illegal obscenity will not be accepted.
Holistic Wisdom, Inc. forbids "obscenity", sometimes also called
"hard-core pornography". Obscenity laws vary from state to state,
and often, from community to community. In the United States,
juries typically regard obscenity as sexual behavior involving
one or more of the elements: extreme sadomasochism, actual incest,
and depictions of rape and other forms of nonconsensual erotic
behavior not marked as fantasy. Juries typically fail to define
sexual behavior where the conduct is consensual, nonviolent, and
involves healthy adults in the privacy of their own home as "obscene."
However, because every community is different, you should consult
a local attorney who is familiar with first-amendment laws and
local obscenity statutes before using Holistic Wisdom, Inc..
3)
No bestiality: Web sites with actual sexual acts between
humans and animals will not be accepted. However, sites that features
animals and people with no sexual contact are acceptable.
4)
No stolen / unlicensed content: If your site is promoting
or using stolen property or unlicensed material, then we can't
list your site. Holistic Wisdom, Inc. is a supporter of APIC Worldwide.
5)
No rape or nonconsensual content: Nonconsensual sex in
any context other than a clearly labeled fantasy setting is prohibited.
6)
Licensed celebrity content: Only licensed content will be
allowed once documentation has been submitted and deemed acceptable.
7)
Filtering software: Any site or service selling adult content
that has failed to request filtering companies such as Cybersitter,
Safesurf, NetNanny or SurfWatch to block minors from accessing
their content will be asked to do so.
8)
No unsolicited bulk eMail: We will not accept any service
which promotes its site(s), directly or indirectly, by using unsolicited
commercial bulk eMail (e.g., "UCBE" or "spam") or through related
abusive practices such as unsolicited mass instant-messaging and
chat-room flooding.
9)
"Hijacked" or "cybersquatted" domains: Names that are, in
and of themselves, of no interest to adult-oriented audiences
(e.g., whitehouse.com), with particular emphasis placed on those
domain names that minors might accidentally visit will not get
listed.
10)
False deceptive advertising: Any service which has been subject
to regulatory or law-enforcement scrutiny alleging certain abuses,
such as false/deceptive advertising or overcharging of credit
cards will not be accepted.
11)
Failing to disclose contact information: Any service which
fails to disclose where it is physically located, and which fails
to provide the public with contact information such as mailing
address, telephone number and eMail address will be asked to do
so. Correct "Who Is" information on domain registration or "Contact
Us" information on your site is acceptable.
