"The traffic on my website doubled and even tripled at times after I got a Fark classified ad. I pulled the best numbers I've had since the page reopened 5 weeks ago. This is the deal of the century if you ask me." - John Hawkins, Right Wing News

"The Fark Classifieds are by the far the most cost-effective way I've been able to reach tens of thousands of people. You'd be insane not to take advantage of it. The numbers speak for themselves." -Brooks, SportsByBrooks.com

Posting to the Fark Classified Section

The Fark Classified Ad System. Lately we've been deluged by plugs for people selling things on eBay, their bands, their friends' bands, and god knows what else. I've linked in a few on the main Fark page, but there's just too many these days. However, I do think these links are part of what makes Fark a community.

So here's the solution: Fark Classifieds

Important points:

• Put your links into rotation in front of 5,500,000 page views per week
• Five random links per minute will display on the main Fark page in the sidebar.
• See how many clicks your ad has gotten in its comments forum.
• Use the comments forum to add further description, receive honest feedback, and answer any questions people may have.
• Anything goes, as long as it's legal. You can advertise eBay sales, personal ads if you'd like to meet someone who shares at least one thing in common with you (Fark), your own bands/websites/Photoshop contests, or just make a statement.
• All boobies links also appear on the Classifieds page as added incentive for people to go there.

Cost for a seven day rotation:

	$10 for a fun message-type link. Examples: birth announcements, personal ads, eBay auctions, messages to other Farkers
	$25 for a link to your own content-driven website. Examples: i-mockery.com, x-entertainment.com, morons.org
	$75 for a link to an e-commerce website. This includes links to multiple eBay auctions and eBay stores
	$200 for a Not Safe For Work link (because these get 5-7x hits)

To purchase, click the paypal links above next to the type of link you want. Then submit the link to our queue (see below)

How to submit links Just do it the regular way by clicking on Submit a Link and entering in the normal information. Be very sure to click the Classified button however, because I'm not going to notice it's a classified ad otherwise and it might get deleted. Also, this isn't eBay, so don't type in link titles IN ALL CAPS OR WITH 1000!!!!!!!!!!! MARKS!!!!!!!! because I'll be editing them down. Try to make the link title as interesting as possible, because people will come look at an amusingly titled link regardless of how much it may suck. Just ask Ananova.

How long will the links remain on the classifieds page? Seven days

Payment required in advance.

IMPORTANT: the email address you pay for the link with must be identical to the email address in your Fark user profile. If you forget we can still work around it, but that means you'll have to email me and I'll have to fool around with looking for it etc. It'll be much easier if I can find it the first time.

If you have any other questions email me: (drew@fark.com)

Boobies!
