Title: Introducing BB's Member Links Network
Cory - June 22, 2008 03:06 AM (GMT)
BB's new Member Links Network is an advertising solution that displays your board text link ad on multiple sites. And the best thing about it is that you don't have to purchase a place on the network bar; your standard link will be included free for as long as your board displays the bar. You may, however, choose to purchase a text personalization to customize your link.
Take a look at the bottom of BB's pages to see what the network bar looks like. It will seamlessly blend in to your CSS, and takes less vertical space on your board than the InvisionFree copyright bar. The unobtrusive but effective one-line list of links will change on each page refresh, insuring your link will come up multiple times during the normal site visit of most users.
The more users that opt to join the Network, the more boards will carry your ad. This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of what could become one of BB's most popular offerings.
You may opt into the network bar at anytime. Those who do not wish to display the bar on their boards can still have a link displayed on it by purchasing a Member Links Network ad package. See
this topic for details on how to set up your package. You will also have the option to purchase text customizations for your link on the Network bar.

Just a note for those thinking about doing this.....
The first 6-8 boards that carry the network bar will have constant exposure, as their link will be there on every refresh. :)

Do I have to buy one of the packages to install it? I'd like to give it a go.^^
HelenaZF - June 26, 2008 02:33 PM (GMT)
No, Itachii. If you install the bar, your listing is free for as long as you keep it up on your site. You can however, purchase text customizations for your listing if you like.

Well I have added it to my board...and your right it blends in perfect.I quite like it.^_^

Thanks for participating, Itachi. Your link has been added to the network bar and 1000 credits have been transferred to your account. :)
Desire - June 27, 2008 10:16 PM (GMT)
I've added it to my forum as well :).

I would like to add it to my invisionfree board. I added the code, how do i add my link to it?
Cory - June 28, 2008 01:01 AM (GMT)
Extreme General has been added to the network bar. I'll be transferring 1000 credits to your account once the credit system is up and running again.
Addicted, post your boards link here and we'll add it to the network bar with dynamic coding. ^_^

That's one of the things I think is so cool about it--it just looks classy. Not only does it blend into your skin, but it takes up almost no board space--yet the links are noticeable and accessible. I like it so much better than a system that requires you to display a rotating big image that makes your board look junky.

The Moonlit Curse has been added to the network bar, and I have transferred 1000 credits to y'alls account.

Do you have to sign up for text customization for your listing in the beginning? Or can you wait and see if it is something you want to sign up for later?

Awesome thanks. How long does it stay there?
Cory - June 28, 2008 03:07 AM (GMT)
You can wait to sign up for text customizations if you'd like, tis*me.
Your link will remain on the network bar for as long as the network bar remains on your board.

Thanks! :D
It looks great and I really like that it doesn't take up much board space.

I have added the feature to my message board. It displays below the footer of my main index page.
Cory - June 29, 2008 10:19 PM (GMT)

Thanks Cory. :)

New!
We've just added a new customization option to those already available.
You can now opt to have a hover text coded onto your link so that when users mouse over it, they can read a 10 word or less description of your board. You can purchase the new customization (along with any others) in the Network Bar forum.
Hover over BB's listing to see what can be done with 10 words. :)
Note: Please do not try to use the hover text to get a date or to beg people to join your forum by making them an admin. :D

If you'd like to have your boards link placed on the network bar, please sign-up in the
Member Links Network forum.

Umm I posted a request for this service yesterday I think, but it's not in the forum anymore. Has it been trashed?

Ohh I didn't see it sorry xD.
