Thank you for considering advertising with the Apple Pugetsound Program Library Exchange (A.P.P.L.E) user group.
A.P.P.L.E. offers several different marketing opportunities for computer related items as well as items in the technology and software realms. We also accept advertising from clients looking for an Apple specific audience.
We currently sell packages for Advertising sponsorship of the A.P.P.L.E. Users Group website in addition to our other A.P.P.L.E. Supported websites including, but not limited to, semi-permanent icons on the front pages and text line advertising. Generally, any Semi-permanent icons generally would rotate among three or four different advertisers depending on the package purchased. The pricing for this type of advertisement varies and must be determined by individual contract as well as the number of impressions provided.
Large banners and side towers are the primary form of advertising on the A.P.P.L.E. Website. Banner ads are sold via the various sponsorship packages.
These packages include our Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum sponsorship deals. The Packages are available starting as low as $300 USD per month for the Bronze Package. These package contracts would include the client sponsored discounts of up to 40% being offered to our members for their freeware, shareware, and lower-priced commercial products, included in the terms of the contract as part of your commitment to our official Apple Users Group as a sponsor. Contracts can be for monthly or Annual sponsorship of the A.P.P.L.E. Website.
Some of our past advertising clients have included Apple, Microsoft, Nibble Magazine, Synergistic Software, Sierra Online, Datamost as well as several Fortune 500 companies. We have also had advertising from a number of local Pacific Northwest companies over the 40 plus years of our existence.
Industries related to the Apple computing, both vintage and current, along with technology of general interest are always welcome. Our staff evaluates all advertising requests and their decision on whether to accept an advertisement or an ad campaign is final. Other modern and vintage technology sector ads are acceptable as well. Ads for other industries are accepted on a per evaluation basis.
