Advertising Policy


Recently the Beading Times hit a new high of over 37,000 unique visitors a month.  Our audience is very targeted, consisting of beaders and jewelry designers. 

Because our audience is very focused, all advertised products or services must be targeted to beaders, bead makers or jewelry makers.  If we receive numerous complaints from several readers about an advertiser, an anonymous member of our staff will conduct a transaction with that vendor.  If the complaints appear to be well founded, we will quit running that company's advertisement.  Monies paid in advance will not be refunded to those advertisers that do not meet our standards of quality products and customer service.

Advertising Rates:

Design your own ad or let our experienced layout people design it for you.  Design layout free.
