Introduction


The aim of shopperuk.com is to provide a fast, reliable, useful and convenient shopping and information portal for a UK focused audience by providing links to those merchants (online stores) and services who provide quality goods, products or services to the UK market. These online sites must preferably be UK operated shops/businesses. Realising that "content is king", we are continually endeavouring to improve the content within shopperuk.

A site can be listed under multiple categories, if shopperuk.com feel the merchants site is suitably appropriate. So please select your category / subsection carefully. Only one category per URL. One of the reasons is that it is unfair for our visitors to be inconvenienced when browsing shopping categories only to find listings are repeated, but we do suggest deep linking to relevant sections of your website, hence "the three click rule", which does improve conversion rates. We do not accept aliasing URL's.

Please make good use of your description, try and include Product Range, Brands and anything unique about what is on offer on your site. Short meaningless descriptions are unlikely to entice visitors. Please write the description in the third person, which is reviewed togther with your website by shopperuk, until we mutually agree on your inclusion.

Cyber Shopping Malls/Centres/Cities/Forums will not be included on this site because that would defeat the purpose of this site and to be honest are direct competition. We appreciate that some of the not so illustrious / highly branded shops have limited budgets. And we appreciate honest, bonified companies venturing wisely into e-commerce may have limited budgets. Therefore any proposals for fixed term advertising rates will be considered carefully.

Once we are furnished with the information regarding the campaign duration and budget, we can either suggest a suitable "package" of components in which we can optimise pricing based on the size of the "package" or alternatively, your welcome to decide your own advertising campaign.

Here is an approximate pricing guide for year 2002/2003 campaigns. Please note that preferential rates are given for fixed rate advertising, rather than CPM campaigns. But, rates for both are extremely competitive.

Generous discounts are given for longer duration campaigns of longer duration, the minimum order vale is £200+vat

For example For a banner advert of the size 468x60, normally has a fixed rate of £1000 per month for the home page or targeted shopping category with a minimum term of 1 month. If you wish to take out a 12 month term you would only have to pay £750 per month which is a saving of 25%.

Please note all advertising fees are subject to VAT. And any fees mentioned herein do not constitute an agreement in case of any typographical errors.
