Meet Your Market
The Internet continues to significantly impact the gay community, allowing GLBT individuals from all around the world to connect to resources and access information from the safety and privacy of their own homes. When compared to the national average, statistics suggest gay Americans are 1.5 times more likely to have high-speed Internet access, twice as likely to shop online, twice as likely to shop for vacation packages, three times more likely to shop online for music and videos, and five times more likely to shop online for business technology.

Get your organization, business, meeting or event noticed on NebraskaGLBTevents.com - the one and only exclusive statewide calendar site for GLBT Nebraska.
According to a September 2004 report from the market research firm Packaged Facts and Witeck-Combs Communications, the buying power of the U.S GLBT population is projected to reach $610 billion in 2005. The GLBT population includes a high degree of diversity – singles, families, seniors and people of color. The report states that with "growing trends of acceptance and respect throughout society – it is now making it possible -- even essential – for more GLBT persons to safely self-identify and to vote not only with their ballots but also with their dollars in the market."
As members of the Nebraska GLBT Communities log on to view the many events happening on a weekly basis across the state, your banner ad will stand out from other events listed in the calendar. By attracting the attention of site visitors, your organization or business can increase views to your website.
Standard Internet Full Banner ads are available in 4 week rotations. Your banner, incorporating color, graphics, sound, and animation, can help to drive traffic to your site - which in turn creates more exposure for your organization, business or event.
Long term banner rotation agreements will qualify for higher rotation within the Nebraska GLBT Events site. And long term banner rotation agreements will also qualify for "special event" banner trade outs as needed.
Advertising = Charitable Giving
Your support of the Nebraska GLBT Events Calendar Site, will in turn help support charitable giving throughout the Nebraska GLBT Communities. All proceeds from banner ads will defray the ongoing registration, web hosting and maintenance of the website.
Proceeds above expenses will be used for charitable donations! Charitable donations will be made at the discretion of the website moderators and times throughout the year deemed able per the finances available.

A Note About Flash ads
To track ad clicks and to determine click through ratio, your Flash ad must contain a hard-coded destination URL. Users of Swishmax and other Swish products should be aware that versions prior to the release date of March 3, 2003 do not hard-code URL's correctly. It is therefore impossible to track ad clicks in Flash ads made with these products. You are free to use older versions of Swishmax to create ad banners, but please be advised that your ad clicks (and click through ratio) cannot be determined when these products have been used.
