BrainPixels - Get your own piece of Pixel Advertising!

Welcome to my page of intelligent pixels (BrainPixels)! The main purpose of this page creation is to address the current situation of highly demanded advertising space of BrainKing game site which is running out of open prominent slots to place advertisements of our partners. And, since a pixel advertising option was requested many times in the past, the result is here, open to everyone and introducing several neat and original features.

If you never heard of the pixel advertising before, I recommend you visit the famous Alex Tew's page which had practically invented this great type of advertising in 2005. However, BrainKing does not simply copy these ideas without any added value, like many plagiarists do (just try to search Google for "pixel advertising" and compare the results) - I have improved the basic concept with several original features (mostly requested by existing customers) which move the pixel advertising system to a higher level of customer comfort.

1. Fairness. The price is only 0.5 Euro per pixel (2 years) or 0.75 Euro per pixel (5 years). It means that it is affordable for virtually everyone.
2. Visibility. The advertising area has a decent size - unlike "million pixel pages", where your pixels are recognizable when the total space is only sparsely filled and sooner or later get buried from sight, our advertising space is only 200 x 500 pixels (or a grid of 20 x 50 cells). All of them are above the fold (visible without scrolling down the page) at the top right corner of the http://BrainKing.info page (and all subpages) and every single square can be easily spotted.
3. Maturity. Unlike a typical pixel advertising page, this site was not created to sell pixels only. BrainKing.info is a mature site which already generates a very good traffic (over 80,000 unique visitors a month), it is updated on a daily basis (search engines love it) and it is a direct subproject of the popular BrainKing game site. All these advantages mean that your pixels will be noticed (and clicked) by a large and growing community of regular visitors, not just a few "passers-by" who searched Google for "million" or "pixel advertising".
4. Extensiveness. Your pixels will not be displayed on a single page only. BrainKing.info already contains several hundreds of articles, new articles are being added every day and all these pages include our pixel advertising area. At the moment of writing this description, you would get your pixels displayed at more than 500 pages at once with a guarantee of a new page every day - who else gives you this kind of exposure for the mentioned price?
5. Worthiness. It is not only about pixels! I understand that it is quite difficult to display a good looking advertisement at a 10x10 pixels box, so I have decided to give everyone an option to add a fully customizable 600x400 area which shows up when a mouse cursor is moved to the particular pixels. This box can contain any kind of advertisement - text, clickable links, images, YouTube videos etc. - and allows anybody who purchases any number of pixels to raise their value by a full featured big advertisement. And now, the best news - this is a free bonus! It costs you no other expenses, you just provide a HTML code of your advertisement and I do the rest.
   Just have a look at the example - move your mouse cursor to the "Brain King" image and a "Welcome to BrainKing!" advertisement should appear in a half a second.
6. Creativity. The enhanced advertising space, described at the previous point, is not just a popup window which instantly disappears when the mouse cursor is moved elsewhere. Actually, it can be used as a standalone web page to provide important functionality to the potential customer. For example, it can contain promotional links or banners which can be clicked, or even simple forms to register for a newsletter, etc. The creativity is limited only by the area size.
7. Reliability. If it is requested, I can provide a written agreement (PDF or a signed contract) of the particular exclusive advertising space lease. No fee is charged for this service.
8. Appreciation. The top advertiser (who purchase the most pixels) will get his link placed at a prominent position of BrainKing home page for the same time period (as long as he keeps the "most pixels" position) and for free.
9. Extras. All advertisers, along with their links and customizable extended advertising areas, will be listed on a special page (or maybe more pages on different sites), sorted by the number of purchased pixels. It brings another kind of publicity, not to mention a good chance to be better indexed by search engines.
10. Community. I am open to any suggestions how to make this system even better and more attractive. If an advertiser comes up with an improvement request and it is possible to make it integrated to the current system, it will be always considered for an implementation. One of our main goals is to explore new options and opportunities, as opposed to site owners who just purchase a script which automatically creates the whole pixel advertising site and then they expect it to generate a quick income without any further work (many examples can be googled out).

The least amount of purchased pixels is 10 x 10 = 100 pixels (one square) because it would be very difficult to display a meaningful image of a smaller size. It is equivalent to 50 Euro (2 years) or 75 Euro (5 years).

1. An exclusive advertising space which is guaranteed not to be changed for 2 years (unless you request a change yourself - another image to place to the purchased pixels position, a new text to the popup area, etc.)
2. A fully customizable advertising space of 600 x 400 pixels which can contain a text, clickable links, animated images, simple forms, videos, etc. And for 2 years as well.
3. A chance to be promoted on another popular and high-traffic site for free.
4. An opportunity to get involved in the development - if a good and realizable feature (which would make you better satistfied) is suggested, there is a nice chance to make it really implemented.

I plan to add a fully automatic system which would handle all orders itself, in order to make the purchase process more comfortable for customers. Until such a system is created and released, feel free to send me an e-mail to fencer@brainking.com (or use the Contact Form) and specify the following information:

1. The number of cells (squares of 10 x 10 pixels size) to order.
2. Preferred locations of the ordered cells, so I would be able to reserve that space for you. The advertising area contains 50 rows and 20 columns, so it can be used to specify the cell coordinates (for example, the "Brain King" image at the sample above is located at rows 1-3 and columns 1-8). Or, if you do not care about the exact location, you can leave it to my discretion.
3. The payment method you want to use. I can accept PayPal (preferred), MoneyBookers or a wire transfer.
4. The target URL of your advertisement - the page which should be displayed when your pixels are clicked.

When I receive this information from you, I will calculate the total price and send you back an invoice. Please do not forget to read the Terms and Conditions page - your payment for BrainPixels means that you agree with them. After the payment is received, the requested advertising space will be exclusively reserved for you and no other advertiser can use it. Please allow 24-48 hours to process your payment, although I usually make it much faster. Once the space is reserved, I can upload and activate your image (you can e-mail it or give me a link where I can download it, provided you are the owner of the image) and/or HTML code for the popup area.
