Membership & Sponsorship Rates

Membership Levels

Our Membership Packages give companies a Beautifully Branded Showroom & a blend of Showcases & Posts. Posts can be for News, Product, Articles, Events, etc. The highest level Members on each site are also eligible for Front Page, Category & Site Menu Sponsorship. We explain the details of sponsorship below. The number of showcases & posts are earned evenly over time through the year. For instance, 12 per year means once per month & 4 per year means 1 per quarter. Learn more about Membership!

Showcases

Your Most Important Content!
Showcases are year-round pages for your most important content that deserves major branding & beautiful design that can include full screen images, video & information that promotes a Brand, Division, Product, Project or Top Client. They can be placed on any site in our network that best fits the topic. Linked with any one of your Showroom pages. Showcases on the main site of your Membership will be ranked at the level of your Membership. Showcases places on other sites will be ranked at Starter level. So, if you want it ranked higher, we recommend adding a membership for the additional site. They can be refreshed or replaced once per year at no additional charge. See a Sample.

Product Showcase
A beautifully designed page that showcases your latest or top Product or Product Line. It will be listed in the appropriate category where a thumbnail of the Cover Photo & the Product Name will link to the Product Showcase. The 15 highest ranking members in the Category are rewarded Category Sponsorship which features them on the main Category page.

Project Showcase
A beautifully designed page that showcases a project by your client that uses your products. It will be listed in the appropriate category where a thumbnail of the Cover Photo & the Client or Project Name will link to the Showcase. The 15 highest ranking members in the Category are rewarded Category Sponsorship which features them on the main Category page.

Yearly

Pay Yearly & Save
Pay yearly & get 2 months free. And, we’ll waive the standard design fee. Plus, you can use your Showcases & Features any time during the year. You will also rank higher in the Directory in your Tier. So, Platinum Members who pay by the year rank higher than Platinum Members who pay by the month.

Add-Ons

Need more than Platinum?
Platinum members who need more Showrooms, Showcases & Posts can upgrade to our higher packages. We have plenty other levels above Platinum. If you need to budget for upgrades, the pricing is simple. For every $64/month you get 1 Product Showroom, 1 Client Showroom & 4 Posts per year. And, we do not charge you design fees as long as it falls within the realm of our normal designs.

Sponsorship

Earn Your Way to the Front Page!
Instead of charging outrageous fees for Front Page & Category Sponsorship, we use a market-based approach to determine a fair price. Basically, the companies with the highest membership level earn sponsorship. So, if there are only Copper members on a site, the first 15 who reached Copper get Front Page sponsorship until other members join or upgrade at any level above them. We offer a 1-year lock-in for Platinum members. So, the first 15 to become Platinum level members earn Front Page Sponsorship for 1 year. After that year, the Front Page Sponsorships will be rewarded to the Platinum level members with the highest monthly billings. This is also how we award most of our other Sponsorships listed below.

Front Page
The 15 highest ranking members are rewarded Front Page Sponsorship. A thumbnail of the cover photo & the brand name will link to the brand showroom.

Site Menu
The 12 highest ranking members are rewarded Site Menu Sponsorship. The brand name will be in the dropdown menu at the top of the site & link to the brand showroom.

Categories
Each category has its own rules. But for most of them, the 15 highest ranking members are rewarded Sponsorship in their main categories where they have Showrooms & Product Showcases. A thumbnail of the Cover Photo & the Brand Name will link to the Brand Showroom or Product Showcase.

Special Sections
We create special sections for popular topics. Each section has its own rules. For most of them, the 15 highest ranking members are rewarded Sponsorship in sections where they have Showcases. A thumbnail of the Cover Photo & the Brand Name will link to the Showcase.

Ranking

Our Top Clients Get Top Exposure & Priority!
We implemented the Ranking concept to honor our top clients based on their level of membership & when they attained that level. So for instance, that’s how we Rank members for Front Page or Category features. First, we Rank members by their level of membership. Second, we Rank them by the date they attained that level. The first members to attain that level, have top Ranking at that level.
