The coloured TABS directly above link to adverts on the web site, or directly to the advertisers own web page.
Ruislip Online is also offering specific page advertising, where the pages in question get the most traffic (viewings). The list is not comprehensive as pages are added all the time.
So how much does it cost to advertise?
There are several options, which are as follows: -
Tab,
as above, £45 per annum.
(If you want one do not hang around, there is a limit to the number we can take!!)
These should show on every page, Ruislip Online reserves the right to not put them on certain pages and should advertising become very popular will create a second set of tabs and alternate them between popular pages (some might say this is better as it give fresh tabs!)
You don’t have a web site? No problem, you get a small one of those as well – Free, if basic, or a small charge if something more elaborate has to be written. Have a look at www.ruislip.co.uk/tandoori to see what one looks like.
You have no knowledge or interest in the Internet or computers? No problem, you are just the kind of customer we love, we do the whole thing for you.
If you want to buy a TAB click on the link below which best suits your present situation, this will start a dialogue (although you can do the whole thing right here right now including paying).

I have a some questions concerning advertising I should like to ask
The answers to some possible questions are shown below.
How many people will see my advert?
At the last count the page viewing per day were running at around 1,700 per day (correct as at 7/2008) - the counter was removed as the number was so high it became meaningless!.
Why are some TABS different to others?
In order to keep things "fresh" sometimes things get moved about. The persons on the lower TABS have just been on the site for longer (correct as at 3/2008)
Can I word my tab how I want to
For discussion. If you are an estate agent doing, for example ONLY lettings then "lettings" could run along side "estate agents" on different tabs......It also has to fit in the tab!!!
I need a free web site - is it really free - there must be a catch!!!???
Well sort of, yes it is free but I am not about to write a full all singing all dancing web site for nothing! So I will write something fairly simple, with contact details, address and a "this is what we do" look about it - rather like, say, an advert in the paper you might place.
I have is guesthouse in Penrith (etc.), can I advertise it on your site? Is there anything you will not advertise?
A guesthouse in Penrith is fine. The only kind of advertising we will not accept is that of a product that visitors might find offensive, such as adult web sites.
What happens after my advert expires?
We write to you and invite you to renew it, almost certainly on the same terms.
Will somebody come and see me?/I should like somebody to call and see me to discuss this advert.
I think one has to look at this from a practical point of view. If I need to collect information from you and you are in Ruislip and the information cannot be posted or e-mailed easily then I will call. But at £45 for a year it is obvious that if I had to spend ages discussing requirements with people any "profit" would soon have gone! Each request is treated on its merits, but mail/e-mail is by far the best way for me. If you want to speak to me go to the general enquiry form and provide me with a telephone number.
Can I have a tab and other page specific sponsorship?
You can if space is available.
What if something changes in the meantime, such as my phone number, or address.
No problem, if something changes just let us know and we will update your banner or web page. As long as the number of changes does not become onerous then this would be free. By example suppose you are a car dealer with a small web site on Ruislip Online and your phone number changes, no problem, or you decided to add Lada cars to the list of brands you now sell, again no problem (well apart from the obvious one with your brain!). What will not be free would be if we we asked to display a list of cars presently on offer and kept on being asked to change them, such a site would be charged differently.
If my business closes may I have a refund?
Sorry, no.
VAT?
Not registered.
Ruislip Online's ethical advertising policy
Ruislip Online operates on an ethical advertising basis. Should we receive any complaints about the service or conduct of any advertiser where we think that the good name of Ruislip Online could be called in to doubt by our carrying an advert for that person or company then, provided after investigation we are satisfied that the complaint is justified, and that the advertiser has acted in a way that we see as inappropriate, then that advert will be removed without notice.
In the event that such action is taken then Ruislip Online will refund to said advertiser on a pro-rata basis for any full months advertising.
