Highly competitive rates
We have some of the most competitive rates you will find on the Web for this audience (see
Rates/Opportunities). Please let us know if you find anything more competitive (on a quality website) and we will try and match it.
Our minimum booking is only £30 so why not give us a try?!
Repeat advertisers
The vast majority of our advertisers repeat their bookings which speaks for itself.
Guaranteed exposure
Our pricing is based on the number of times your advert is displayed (number of impressions). This ensures that your campaign has a guaranteed level of exposure to your audience. Some companies charge for the length of time your ad is on their site. This can be very unfair because you have no idea how many times people are actually seeing your advert.
With our system, you never end up paying for ads that aren't displayed!
Free reports
We can provide free, weekly reports on the number of impressions served along with how many click-throughs your advert received - so you always know how hard your ads are working for you.

General Specs
- We accept GIF/JPEG/Flash
- Width: 120 pixels, Height: 600 pixels
- File size cannot exceed 40KB
- Animation: 15 secs max
Detailed Specs
- All Flash ads must be accompanied by both the SWF and FLA file as well as an alternate image (GIF or JPEG) of the same dimensions. Images must meet the file size specs for that ad size.
- Any audio must be user-initiated, defined as a click and not a mouseover or rollover, and clearly labeled with "Play" and "Stop" controls.
- Up to 3 additional loads of up to 50K each may be initiated after a user moves their cursor over or clicks on the ad.
- The Flash frame rate must be less than 18 frames per second; twelve frames per second is preferred. This is because high frame rates may slow down the user's computer.
- Accessing the user's Microphone or WebCam is not permitted.
Position Policy
We try to be as fair as possible when it comes to advert positions on the page and will always aim to put advertisers above any in-house campaigns. However, bearing in mind that not everyone can be at the top, we have introduced the following policy. All adverts fit into one of the following 2 categories:
-
Non-positional bookings (bookings under £100) - unless a 'positional booking' is made (see below), advertisers with the largest booking values will tend to appear nearer the top. For instance, an advertiser that has made an £80 booking will tend to appear above an advertiser that has made a £30 booking. Please note that, if another advertiser subsequently makes a larger booking than you, they will probably appear above you. 'Non-positional booking' positions are at the sole discretion of StagsandHens.com and specific positions can only be requested by making a 'positional booking' of over £100 (see below).
-
Positional bookings (bookings over £100) - specific positions can only be requested if your booking value is over £100. Positions are based on a bidding system (similar to Google) where the highest bidder gets the highest position on the page. Please contact us to find out the current bid per thousand impressions for the page you're interested in. Bids can only be increased in increments of £0.50 per thousand impressions. For instance, if the current bid is £4.50 per thousand impressions, the next bid will need to be £5.00 per thousand impressions (£0.50 more than the last bid). Requesting a position preference does not guarantee that your ad will always be shown in that position as you may subsequently be out-bid. Your ad will still appear in other positions, though we will always make every effort to display your ad where you prefer.
Something to consider - we have found that the quality of an ad can be much more important than its position on the page. While position helps, it's not everything.
