So I was watching a small video by some guys at getmoretrafficblueprint.com (what a crap and annoying domain to type).

And one of the things that suggested was to exploit webmasters who underestimate the worth of their sites, and get cheap links from them.

I did a search for "my keyword" +sponser us / +advertise

And found a list of sites in my niche who are giving away banner space.

My target market is UK(mainly) Europe (secondary) and US (tertiary), 90% of my sales are UK basically.

There's a good site Pr3, Alexa:33,001, it's charging 900 philipine pesos for a month worth of banner advertising which is about 11USD.

It's unlikely the poor philipino people will able to afford my prices, and I'll probably get 0 sales from it. Ruling out any possible direct sales from this, I'm thinking what opportunities there are from benifiting from a backlink (possibly a dofollow backlink)

But it's a banner advert and not an anchor text link, will it have the same effect seo wyse?

He's sent me his analytics report, he gets 100,000 uniques a month, 80,000 monthly are philipino.

1122 monthly uniques UK
12256 monthly US/Canada/Germany uniques (no other european country listed).

And do you think it's worth it?

This is my first ever bannner space purchase, so I don't know if this is a good deal or not. :S
 


Not really sure about how it works with your offer or anything, but a banner on an alexa ranked 33,000 site for $11 a month would be pretty solid. I'm sure you could find some way to monetize it.
 
To be honest I'm only after PR at the moment. so that I can rank higher for my keywords.

I went ahead with the banner deal, it wasn't $11 it was $19.20 which is £11GBP, which is still worth it.

And the banner is EXTREMELY well targeted so Im very pleased with that.

I got a SITEWIDE static permanent dofollow link, hopefully google will pick up on this and like :)

also it's PR3, I'm hoping some of his pr will pass onto me, my pr is 0 at the moment.
