If the following are true about your situation, then a dedicated store is right for you:

- you are already managing ad sales (or strongly expect to soon),
- you want the most advanced management system (i.e. can manage static links on HTML)
- you want to receive payment immediately to your own paypal or merchant account
- you would like a cost effective way to manage all of your sites and sales,
- you would like to significantly reduce your overhead and support,
- you would like to sell text links and/or banners without HIGH commissions,
- you prefer maximum exposure for your sites (or brokered sites) in YOUR inventory,
- you want to fully automate link/banner management, payments, and billing reminders,

Your dedicated store will be accessed via a link such as:

http://yourstore.linksmile.com OR

http://www.linksmile.com/stores/yourstore/

Upon request, we will also forward a URL, so you can use your own domain -such as:

http://www.yourstore.com

With a dedicated store, you can customize what types of ads you'll offer (i.e. static text links, javascript-delivered text links, or javascript-delivered banner ads) and a wide variety of other options via your admin control panel. Our proprietary link management software even manages static text links on HTML pages. So, your link management headache will be over. No software is required for javascript-delivered ads. You simply copy/paste the code into your pages where you want ads displayed.

Q. Can I Private-Label 'Brand' my Dedicated Stores

A. Yes. Your store can be fully integrated with the look-and-feel of your existing website OR we can implement a new design for you. If you have your own template, we will integrate that template for a one-time charge of $150. If you desire a new, unique design based on your specifications; you may purchase our design time at $99 per hour. Ordering customization is done by contacting us AFTER you have ordered.

Q. Why not List my Sites for Free in the free, main Store?

A. You are welcome to list your sites for free in our store, but some of the benefits of having your own dedicated store is that you will receive payment instantly, not have to pay percentage commissions on your own sales, and you will be able to have your inventory dedicated to YOUR sites.

Also note that all of your ads will have double exposure by being listed in our master inventory as well.
