Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received and does not reflect the quality of the business or chances of winning.
Currently, advertising strategies offered by online marketing companies are dominated by complex pay-per-click (PPC) auctions and subscription plans. A large majority of people and businesses enter into PPC plans using ‘keywords’ in hopes of accessing the right target audience. They engage in bidding wars for their right to display advertisements that compliment featured resources provided by
these ‘keywords’. In 2007, it was reported that keywords like "Student Loans", "Mesothelioma" or "tax attorney" were known to cost advertisers in excess of $20.00 per click. Moreover, results-driven marketing experts are reporting they've seen small businesses average monthly budgets ranging from $50 to $500,000 and sometimes more. While this is an admirable approach, these advertisements are expensive, subtle and secondary. The Million Dollar Donation aims to compete in this market by offering an alternative strategy.
At The Million Dollar Donation advertisements are the featured and primary content. We're offering ad space at an affordable one-time, flat-rate fee that will enable you to remain part of this website for AT LEAST 5 YEARS (domain is registered for 5 years), and potentially beyond! No contracts are necessary, no personal information is kept, no recurring costs, no refinancing budgets, and no necessity to upkeep… its hassle free! Purchasing 4 ‘blocks’ worth of ad space would equate to $6.67/month over a 5 year span. Moreover, the goal is to keep the website online for as long as possible.
We work hard to create positive traffic flow taking advantage of social media, search engine optimization (SEO), resources, time, and energy to offer you a simple and robust advertising strategy resulting in increased internet traffic to your website. We track key performance indicators (KPIs) that include Organic Search Results, Non-Branded Search, and Target Keyword Rankings to ensure our SEO is up to date and visitors are interacting. Whether users are visiting to find a product or service, voting for a charity, or checking out what the fuss is about; interactive functionality including Tags, Coordinates, and a Display Box provide a simple and robust set of tools that makes accessing advertisers’ websites intuitive, fast, and seamless.
