Rate and Size Models
A variety of affordable rates and flexible programs make AWS.org a "Best Buy" for smart campaigns. While others may post inflated flat rates, AWS employs an economical cost per thousand (CPM) rate model. With our CPM you pay only for the visitors who see your ad. There's no waste, no over run, and, because AWS deals specifically with the welding industry, no unspecified audience.

Determine advertising rates by first selecting the type and size ads you wish to run. Next determine the locations you wish to display your ad from the Location Chart below. Next, multiply your ad CPM times the Visitors 6 month average.

Example: $58 (A Large Banner Ad CPM) x 3 (Publication Page 6 Mo. Average of 3081) = $174.00 (Monthly Banner Ad Rate)
