What is it all about?
Each country on the globe has its own advertisement page for sale. Anyone can buy a country page, and on
that country page they have an advertising
image (which can also be a link to their own website) and the website's profile inserted by us. The website image is optional, we can just link directly to your site
if desired. Basically by buying a country you are buying an advertising space and a block of pixels shaped like the chosen country on the BuyACountry.net homepage and the associated continent's page.
How is this different from pixel advertising?
Instead of buying pixels on a grid you are buying a set of pixels on
the globe.
The globe has individual country web pages that will contain a link and an advertising
profile, which describes the advertiser’s website/business.
It gives people the chance to have their website/business
represent their country on a website that will be viewed by
thousands.
The different pages, 'View by Continents' and the individual
country pages, enable smaller pixel areas (i.e smaller countries)
to get more exposure, as the advertisements are enlarged and can
be viewed easily by site visitors. This will ultimately benefit
the buyer as their site will be advertised more effectively
than having a tiny square among 1000’s of other squares.
This is just one major difference between www.BuyACountry.net and
other pixel advertising websites.
Probably the biggest major difference at BuyACountry.net is that people will want to click directly on a certain country to see "Who owns it" or "Has it been bought". No one will seek out pixel #8294 on a typical pixel advertising website, but people will want to see who owns their homeland country.
Cost?
The price for each country is based on a number
of factors. Each buyer is getting a permanent link on a site with a wide, international, growing traffic base. Permanent links are hard-to-find on the Internet, and almost none of them have a real reason (or curiousity) to view the location of the link.
What Will This Do for My Website?
BuyACountry.net considers each country page to be "virtual real estate". By buying** a country, you get several serious benefits:
Visitors to this site are curious about "Who owns what country", or "Who owns MY country". The typical visitor will click to see who owns it and what is special about them. That could be YOUR website. This is far more powerful than a link or banner ad that is just an afterthought on a page written about something else.
Permanent incoming links are very hard-to-find on the Internet. Owning a country secures an advertisement for your site for an unlimited amount of time.
"Buying a Country" gives you a marketing angle, "a feather in your cap", that you can use to advertise your site and create an interest in it (ex. "Our website now owns a country!"). Even a press release isn't out of the question.
All new buyers of a country will also have their website text link posted on our homepage for at least one month (we'll cycle off links from the homepage after a month based on the number of countries being sold, but the minimum time on our homepage will be one month. The country link (on the picture of the country) and page will still be permanent).
After your 1st full month of purchase, BuyACountry.net will add even more advertising resources to your purchased country's page. It's all about traffic on the Internet and we'll do this as a "thank you" for doing business with us.
Possibly one of the biggest reasons for buying a country at BuyACountry.net is supply and demand. As with real estate, the price of virtual real estate will rise with demand. As this site's traffic grows, and country sales increase, the market value of YOUR country will rise. If you ever decided to sell your country, your selling price could be far greater than what you paid for it.
In short, BuyACountry.net is here to stay. The Internet, in the form that it is in today, is still very young, and our marketing team has over 15 years of combined Internet marketing experience. We're excited about growing, and as we grow, the owners of our countries will grow.
