Advertising info and pricing
When Cheaperbyte's sales manager said
"Accelerate your storage sales",
he knew just the right way to do it.
Why should YOU advertise on storagesearch.com?
Many of our advertisers say:- storagesearch.com delivers higher quality readers, more RFQs and lower cost of leads than any other web advertising they have tried (including Google).

Part of the reason is that over 1.3 million unique readers / year use STORAGEsearch.com to find products ranging from SAS storage to million dollar solid state disk accelerators.

Another reason is our readers love our site - and from company founders to professional buyers in government they trust our content - use it to make important strategic decisions and recommend it to their partners and customers.

We're good at ads. We've been selling web ads since 1996. They work. That's because we respect our readers - and reject ads which are likely to annoy our readers, or waste their time.

We were the first enterprise storage site online, and we are still the #1 online storage site for most of the important subjects in this market. And despite the hundreds of me-too storage publications that have come into this market - we've continued growing pageviews, readers and market share.

STORAGEsearch offers attractive ad packages for companies spending from around $1,300 a year to $20,000 a year.

Our advertising packages suit busy sales and marketing professionals in companies ranging from VARs to multibillion dollar storage oems. Our "hands-free" classified ads mean you don't even need to design your ad. We do it for you - at no extra charge.

Unless you're scared of mice - or don't believe that the web can generate significant business for your company - then you should contact us to ask for an advertising proposal straight away.

18 Years of Enterprise Storage Guides
Editor:- February 2010 - it's 18 years since I sold the 1st edition of my enterprise server and storage buyers guide.

Little did I imagine back then (in 1992) that SSDs - a technology I had used to boost the reliability and speed of servers in the 1980s - and which occupied less than 1% of the pages in that heavy $79 book - would one day become the #1 hot topic for millions of my readers - as it is today.

2010 - year of the SSD market bubble - is one of the most exciting times and places to be involved in the computer industry.

It's got... the buzz I felt in 1977 as an electronics engineer working with microprocessors. The uncertainty of being a web publisher in 1996. The thrills of the dotcom boom days in 1998 which gave me the confidence to put a cartoon character - Megabyte the mouse - on the home page of a serious new publication about RAID, SCSI, HDDs and SSDs - which I boldly named StorageSearch.com

Today - the storage market is the hot center of flaming innovation in computer architecture.

SSDs are going to enable us to evolve new digital markets faster than possible using the tired sagging clock rates and fat cores of 30 year old processor architectures with hard drives.
SSDs over 163  current & past oems profiled There are thousands of articles here on StorageSearch.com - and our readers, contributors and sponsors include many of the thought leaders in the SSD industry. Together - we're "leading the way to the new storage frontier".
Recession... what recession?...................................................
There was no recession for us or our advertisers in 2009.

What's the secret?

Advertise wisely in fast growing customer segments!



2009 was our best ever year for storage advertising revenue.

There's no mystery about this.

Web advertising is a scientific process which involves trial and error.

As a result of sustained ad programs which work - and as a result of over 78% increase in top SSD article pageviews - a lot of advertisers have been asking how they can do more with us.

Our overall site readership has increased by significant double digits this year too - despite a decline in some traditional storage markets.

That's why I can spend more time working on unique content, and zero time cold calling ad sales.

I'm very lucky. We've got fantastically successful advertisers and fantastically high reader quality too. How can you not have a good business with that winning combination?

2010 looks like it will be a very good year for StorageSearch.com too.

6 good reasons to advertise on STORAGEsearch.com
  • it works! - Even in a recession. It worked in the IT recession which followed the dotcom bubble, Enron and 9/11 - and is working now too. That's because increasing your incremental communications to thoughtful readers (otherwise known as advertising) - in the right context - affects what they know, what they think and what they buy.
  • if you like our content - and you want to see it continue - that's a good enough reason to support the site with an entry level ad in the region of $1,300 to $2,000.
  • unmatched reader quality! - Our readers include the biggest and most important buyers in the storage market. They come here because it's the best resource on the web.
  • low cost! - Typically a year's permanent visibility costs about the same as distributing a couple of press releases.
  • improve your image! - Become associated with the highest quality web site on the web covering strategic storage market issues.
  • fill black holes in your Google ads! - We don't run Google ads. So none of your generic web ads reach our readers while they view our content.

    Less than 50% of our readers come from search-engines. Most come from the 10,000+ independent extranl links to our site and because they have bookmarked it. So you can't reach oru readers any other way.
  • defensive! - advertising blocks competitive ads out from your company profile. If your editorial strategy creates high interest and you're not an advertiser - you're simply providing fertile ground for competitors.
