MatWeb Advertising Plans:

1. Material Supplier Listings:  MatWeb's supplier listings are especially effective for suppliers and manufacturers who desire to reach users who are in the materials selection process becasue they are tied to specific data sheets within MatWeb.  These listings are better than buyer's guide directory listing because you can reach people during the materials selection process. Two levels are available.  The Preferred Listing option will list your text ad (including company name, contact information, and a link to your Web site) above the property data for a specific data sheet.  The Standard Listings appear only after the user clicks the “Click here to see vendors for this material” link.  You can choose your proprietary products, general entries, or an entire category of materials.  Supplier listings are priced as a function of their exposure - ask us about expected number of impressions on the material data sheets of interest.  Discounts available starting at $500!

Prices for supplier listings (per 1000 impressions on the material data sheet):

Price Description $110 Preferred Listing - Example (see link to Bamberger Polymers) $50 Standard Listing - Example (see links to several suppliers)

2. Banners/Buttons:  Your banner or button ad can be displayed on the MatWeb site.  These ads are akin to a television commercial in that they are an effective tool for 'brand-building' - increasing name recognition - except that MatWeb can focus your message only to prospective customers.  We can even design an eye-catching animated ad to catch the attention of designers, engineers, fabricators, specifiers, and buyers. Ask us about quantity discounts.

Prices for banner ads (per 1000 impressions):

Price Description $30 Top Prime Page, (Ex: Property Search Page) one prime banner per page $45 Top Prime Page, sorted by metals or polymers, (Ex: Metal Composition), one prime banner per page $70 Top Specific Material, (Example), one banner per page $250 Specific material vendor page $15 Large button (88 x 70 pixels), prime location $8 Small button (88 x 23 pixels), prime location $12 Top Secondary Page, one banner per page

3. General Supplier Page:  You can also be linked from MatWeb's General Supplier Page for $500 annually.

Minimum Purchase: $200 for banner ads; $200 for supplier listings.

If your company doesn’t have a web site, we can create one and host it!  You may also add your company's material data to the MatWeb database at no cost for free exposure.
