The Dynamics User Group is one of the most visited websites for users of Navision (Dynamics NAV) and Axapta (Dynamics AX), but also users of Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Great Plains (Dynamics GP). More than 200,000 visits (+100,000 unique) and 450,000 page-views per month. Additionally our newsletters are sent out to more than 22000 users per month.
Advertising on the website
It also means that we have different ways to offer you to pay. Either "Pay
per impression" or "Pay per click". If you select the "Pay per impression" (CPM)
then you're paying for each time your ad is displayed on Dynamicsuser.net.
With "Pay per click" (CPC) then you're paying for each time a user is
clicking on your ad to go to your site. To be able to buy the "Pay per click"
then we might require that you have had at least 1 month with "pay per
impression".
Here in the beginning we are offering the "Top Banner" and the "Bottom
Banner". If you select the "Pay per click" option, then your ads will show on
both banners. If you select the "pay per impression" then you select either top
or bottom, where the price for the bottom banner is lower based on historical
CTR (click through rate%) for the to different banners. More people click on the
top banner than the bottom banner. Historically the top banner must display half
as many times as the bottom banner to get the same number of clicks.

Pay per click:
Banner ads where you are only paying per user who is actualy clickking on your
banner to visit your site is a bit more problematic. We can technically do this,
but we also have the experience that most banners are really not using their
potential and therefor getting very low click-through-rates (CTR). We have ads
with a CTR of 0.2% and ads with 2%.
So if you would like to create a pay-per-click campaign, then please contact us,
then we can give you a price.
Other Information
There's a minimum purchase of 50 EUR per order (but you can order different
"line items"). If you want to advertise for a smaller minimum amount, then you
can always continue to use Google Adwords. But your ads will only be displayed
when all other ads have been displayed.
Also notice that the size of the banners when buying directly is 940x120
pixels. When you buy via Google Adwords, then the maximum size is 728x90. That's
about 40% more than when using Adwords.
We accept the following creative formats:Text, Image, Flash/Rich Media. You can submit alternative creatives for your campaign, allowing 1 alternative per 10000 impressions.
You are also able to specify a Country Filter, which will allow us to filter so that your banners are only displayed in specific countries, this way you can make local campaign in local languages, which typical gives you a higher click-through rate. You an also select to get a specific number of impressions per country. We charge a fee of 10% extra for this service.
When you sign up then you also have the option of telling us how many days
you want your ads to be displayed over. Then we will make sure that your ads are
displayed evenly over the period. So you have the option of select that you want
to spend 50 EUR over 3 or even 6 months if you want.
How do you sign up?
- Write email to webmaster@dynamicsuser.net and
specify number of impressions/clicks, types (top, bottom, mixed), period. If you
are signing up for the "Pay per click" then we'll ask you also to submit the
creatives (the ad files in either gif, jpg, png, swf or text formats). You also
have to option of specifying filters, so that your ads in example only are
displayed in your own country (based upon the IP number of the user).
- If it's the first time you sign up, then we will then reply to you with one
or more quotations. If you are just "renewing" your order, then we'll send you
an invoice.
- You tell us which quote you would like and replies including the creatives
(ad files). You can have a maximum of 3 different creatives per ad (order line).
- We'll invoice you.
- When we have received your payments (using Paypal or Bank Transfer), then your ads will be
setup and activated.
After you sign up, then you'll get an access to follow the progress of your
ads impressions/clicks online using DoubleClick for Publishers by Google (similar to
the interface you might know from Google Adwords).
Google / DoubleClick for Publishers / Ad Planner
When we are placing your ads on our site then we are using DoubleClick's dfp by
Google. This allows us to sell the ads here on the site directly to you, and while when
we have unsold "inventory", then we will still be utilizing the ads from
Adwords. The system is Media Rating Council (MRC) accredited. This is important
to make your feel confident with the ad impression measurement process.
But it means that ads bought directly from the Dynamics User Group will
automatically get a higher priority than the ads from Adwords. Only the "inventory" which has not been sold directly will be sold via Adwords.
You will also be able find us on DoubleClick Ad Planner, where you will be able
to get a bit more statistical information about us.

Advertise in our newsletters
The other option is to advertise in our newsletters. Besides the main Dynamics User Group Newsletter, then there are a number specialized newsletters also. Please look at the Subscription Center, to see the other newsletters.
In general then the click-through-rate is much higher on the newsletters, especially on the specialized newsletters.
There will be one main sponsor in each newsletter, and the company will get their logo and about 8-10 short lines of text in the bottom of the newsletter, just above the PS (the PS
area is the part of the newsletter, besides the first 8-10 lines that most users are reading).
Also the main sponsor will get a 120x60 pixel box in the sidebar.
Additionally there will be a maximum of two other 120x60 pixel ad boxes in the
sidebar, but below the main sponsor.
