Message Boards: This is the hottest area of our site, generating 70% of our traffic.  Agency Message Boards mature and devolop over a period of time.  As a result, we've found it best to classify them into the following 3 main categories:

1) Low Traffic (LT) - less than 1,000 posts
2) Average Traffic (AT) - between 1,000 and 9,999 posts
3) High Traffic (HT) - over 10,000 posts

Message Boards with Average Traffic are considered the norm.  Comparable pricing for a Low Traffic Message Board will be 50% less while comparable pricing for a High Traffic Message Board will be 100% more. You can easily verify which category a particular Message Board falls into by accessing our Main Message Board page at  http://forums.leoaffairs.com/ and seeing how many messages are in the "Posts" column.  So, if you want a standard 120x90 Banner Ad on a Message Board with Average Traffic, the cost will be $100 per month.  The same ad on a Message Board with Low Traffic will only be $50 per month (half as much) while the ad on a High Traffic Message Board will be $200 per month (twice as much).  Yes, your ad will appear while users are viewing messages and posting.  Here's our pricing:

Community Pages: We have 3 Communities online with LEOAFFAIRS.COM™:

Tampa Bay Area in Florida
Washington D.C. Metro Area
San Francisco Bay Area in California

The most successful of these (and the first) is the Tampa Bay Area.  Each local community is a major metropolitan area that met our minimum requirements for active law enforcement agencies, business presence and general population. Thus, we've created local communities online in the law enforcement sector.  They contain information specific to these local areas as well as support features and links to local agency Message Boards.  Our advertising rates for the Tampa Bay Area are below.  For advertising information on the Washington D.C. Metro Area and/or the San Francisco Bay Area, please call.  Your ads will appear on ALL of the applicable Community Pages.
