BANNER ADVERTISING
OPPORTUNITY
Updated:
05/02/2007
One of the most important things you should ask yourself -- why
should I spend money on advertising on Deaf Network website and email
group blast? In case you did not notice, DN is primarily focusing on
the Texas deaf community. We believe that the deaf community is not a
niche market -- because we include interpreters, family members,
friends, cochlear implant users, hard of hearing and senior citizens.
Why is Deaf Network so popular these days? It is
hard to relay good sources of information from the deaf community media
these days. Internet has pretty much replaced traditional media such as
magazines or newspapers. What's more, traditional media does not list
all small stuff in it. We do! We include everything that the deaf
community wants -- special events, announcements, church activities,
fund raising, interpreter training, conference, advocacy, non-profit
organization activities, and much more! More than 50% of the messages
that we send out are free.
To monitor Deaf Network statistics for the website
-- please contact me for account & password and I will give it to you
via email. It has to be protected due to security reasons. Email us at
[email protected].
What is Deaf Network anyway? DN has been in
business for over five years. DN saw this opportunity during dot com
boom in the late 90's. We also help other organizations start their own
website. During that time, the Internet was still NEW. Over years, we've
been fortunate to have wonderful people working with us to make it
possible.
Who originally started Deaf Network? Grant Laird
Jr. started Deaf Network in November 1997. In 1999, Brenden
Gilbert and Grant Laird got together and decided to add Crazy
Technologies and put Deaf Network under it so we can serve anybody not
just the deaf community. In 2001, Brenden Gilbert agreed to enter into a
business partnership with him. Brenden primarily focuses on the
technical side of things but also runs day to day operations for the web
hosting side.
Near the end of 2002, we decided to split Crazy Technologies into two
different divisions: Deaf Network and Crazy Web Hosting.
Grant runs the Deaf Network division while Brenden manages the Crazy Web
Hosting day to day operations. Nowadays we serve a large number of
various clients from all over the world for web hosting, web designing,
network/computer setup, and much more. To learn more about our company,
please go to http://www.crazytech.com.
How do we advertise with Deaf Network? We are
open to any advertising ideas you may have and we will figure something
out to make it possible. Again, the Internet is a powerful medium and it
has clearly become a big important part of the deaf community these
days. We acknowledge that not everyone has Internet access but it will
change as time passes by.

Email Footer One-Line
Advertising
We send out a lot of email blasts monthly for the deaf
community in Texas -- approximately 25-50 monthly. Why is it such good
idea to put a one-line advertising on all DN messages? Think twice - it
will stay on email for as long as they save the email in their inbox.
Maybe they will forward some interesting information to other people. We
do have email group blast archives in our website. We currently have
over 2,000 email addresses in our database.
