Reach Local Intelligentsia and Bucolic City Explorers on the Web

This is where about 2,000 unique visitors a month drop by for MOQ's unique perspective on nature and culture in the city. Or they're looking for the Minneapolis Observer newspaper, which we no longer publish (but archived articles are still available on this site). Or else they stumble upon our Web site by chance. Whatever. You can reach this unique audience for only $10/month; and who wouldn't want to? I mean, does it really matter why they're here, so long as they see your ad when they stop by? And you'd have the satisfaction of knowing that you're helping keep this Web site up, with all those archived Observer articles and such.

Minneapolis Observer Web Advertising is Easy and Cheap

How big are these ads?
Web ads are small—117 pixels wide by 146 pixels high. The main purpose of the ad is to arouse the viewers’ interest so that they will click on it to visit your Web site and find out more.

What file formats do you accept?
We can use a jpeg or a gif; resolution must be 72 dpi.

Do I have to make my own ad?
No, we can design your ad for no extra charge. You just supply us with a logo or image you want included.

How soon can my ad be up on the site?
If you supply the ad, we can put it up within 24 hours. If we design it, we’ll have it ready for your approval in 1 to 2 days, and up on the site within a day once you OK it.

OK, let’s do it. How do we proceed?
If you're making your own ad, send it along with the URL for the link to sharon@mplsobserver.com and tell her the start and end dates you want it to run, then go to www.mplsobserver.com/payment to pay $10 for the first month, or $25 for three months.

If you need us to create the ad, contact Sharon and she'll take it from there.
