Why Should You Advertise On MariasMenu?
MariasMenu has rapidly established itself within its niche while steadily developing a strong audience and subscriber base and currently receiving over 3,500 subscribers, 4,000 facebook fans, 50,000 unique visitors & 211,000 page views in a month!

Because it ranks well on search engines for Indian food and recipe related keywords, visitors to the website consists of casual internet users (usually young women, mothers and even the adventurous bachelors) who seek information on how to cook simply delicious dishes with ease.

As of January 2012, in order to provide readers with a better user experience, we have restricted advertisements to three players – first Google Ads, second Beacon Ads and third ourselves to promote our various special edition sections. We did this because we thought about both our readers and our advertisers, and we realized that too many ads distract our readers and too many competing ads gave less exposure to our advertisers. It made sense… in a picture heavy site, our readers would find it difficult to distinguish ads from content and our advertisers wanted more value for money. So we reduced the number of ads on the site!

Advertising Options and Rates
As Henry Ford once said, “you can chose any color… so long as it is black” – you can chose any option so long as its the 468×60 banner slot on the post page for BD 40 (USD 100) per month. Remember this is a large ad, prime location, maximum impressions (over 200,000 pageviews in a month) and single spot with no competition, just above the recipes. No newspaper or magazine can beat that! This is an excellent way to promote your brand, the ads are easily visible to all visitors!

So if you’re interested here’s what you should do:

• Please contact us, indicating the URL of the website to be advertised and the number of months you wish to advertise for and you’ll need to send us your ad image, which will be hosted on MariasMenu.com and linked to your specified website.
