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.
