Our popularity among the Internet RV community is phenomenal. RV Advice of the WWW has an average now of over 600,000 hits per MONTH, with 60,000 unique visitors/subscribers per MONTH, that's more people than most RV magazines subscription base at less than a 1/10th of the advertising cost!
Though the majority of visitors to RV Advice are from the United States a growing number of visitors from the rest of the world is steadily growing. More than 5% of the visitors are from Canada and the United Kingdom and there is a steadily growing number from Italy, Israel, Germany, Australia, Brazil, Denmark, Japan, Korea, France, Belgium, South Africa, etc.
In addition, with the standard of advertising banners on the Internet having a .05% (or less) average of click-through rates, our web site averages a click through rate of over 6.0%! But more importantly than having higher standards than the rest of the Internet, it doesn't matter how many people "click-through" to your web site if they don't PURCHASE anything from your company, our web site brings results.
Why are our advertising rates so low in comparison with other comporable Internet sites? Simple, we don't have a "staff" to pay, but mainly because we don't believe in over charging either our shop customers or our Internet customers! But don't take our word for it, ask our current advertisers/sponsors; many of which have been with us over ten years!

FAQS regarding RV Advice Advertising/Sponsorship
Q: Why should I consider advertising with RV Advice when there are so many other RV related web sites on the Internet?
A: Our web site is unique for our sponsors in many ways, but I'll list ten:
1. While other RV related web sites charge banner rates, often their rates reflect your banner being "rotated" with other banners; with us your banner is the ONLY banner viewed, no rotation; plus we do not charge set-up fees or charge for graphic work if you do not already have a banner.
2. Banners on other web sites just "sit there". Our site is unique in this way: Your product may be discussed at any given time via email and our email replies regarding your product including embedded URL's to your web site.
3. If we believe in your product it is reflected in our responses to our readers and to those that email us. This in turn give these sponsors a great advantage since our readers know we don't just "endorse" any product, it adds to the credibility of our sponsors, as well as to us, so we only endorse advertisers we believe have great product.
4. Internet statistics currently (2004) show that most banners only generate a click through rate of .05% (or less), the click through rate with banners on our web site averages 6.0% and some of our sponsors have a click through rate of over 25%. If you have a product targeted for RVers, this is the site to advertise on!
5. Your product may be asked about in an email to RV Advice, and hence the letter may be included on one of our Q&A pages (regardless if it is a page your are sponsoring/advertising on or not). With the letter or email reply will be an embedded link to your web site regardless if the letter is posted to our web site or not; and the letters that are posted to our web site are typically on the page for a week to two weeks (or longer), again with embedded links to your web site.
6. A letter regarding your product may also wind up on our RV FAQs page from time to time, again with embedded links (at no additional charge to you) to your web site; these letters remain on this page for a much longer period of time. (Often up to a year, or longer).
7. We are often published in RV magazines and nationwide in city newspapers, in both the U.S. and Canada, so letters the newspapers pull directly from our web site may have our endorsements for your product, giving you exposure to "non-Internet" users.
8. We have email "subscribers" that guarantee your banner will be seen. Our subscribers are notified via email anytime any of the pages they "subscribe" to are updated with new content.
9. Our web site is consistent in being one of the top ten RV web sites pulled by the main Internet search engines. Currently we average over 60,000 users/subscribers and average over 600,000 hits per month.
10. Our web site is dynamic and constantly (almost every day) being updated or "over-hauled", it is not a static web site, it is similar to a magazine or newspaper.
If you're still not sure whether or not you should advertise on RVAdvice.com ask our current advertisers. We wouldn't have the same advertisers for over five years (several over ten years), if they weren't satisfied with the results!
