That makes the one / two TLD coms’s very valuable, very long term marketing tools: re Quinnstreet @ Bankrate verticals. They use white label comparison agreements (Kanetix) They have the options to become full service providers and build a new brand through the keywords, interesting how Unum used TV advertising 4 = http://www.backupplan.com/ and the generic website to advertise the brand “Unum”

Come on people where are the SEO experts replies, or are you waiting for SEOmoz / some other forum to help out. Truly there are very few SEO people worth the salt. IMO this is marketing in a nutshell =

Hi,
I was wondering how much you would charge to advertise on your INSURANCE related site. I am looking to place a small text based ad. If the price is affordable I may buy more than one over time. I usually ask for one line with just a few words. I prefer them at the top, middle, or bottom of the main content area of the site. However, I am sure we can work out placement.

Please let me know what you would charge me to place a link ad on your site. If you are interested let me know the price and if you prefer PayPal or a check?

Thanks
