Question ID: 251088
I own an Internet business, www.concretenetwork.com

We provide information on concrete products and services and links to
local contractors who do decorative concrete work such as stamped
concrete pool decks, patios, driveways, colorful interior floors, and
countertops. Our site visitors are consumers, architects, builders,
designers, etc.

I love Pay Per click as a medium to advertise, and currently use this
form of advertising on Google, Overture, Findwhat, and ebuild.com

I am not looking for more pay per click opportunities as I feel I have
that area covered with the most effective services (Google, etc.)

But I am looking for 20-30 building, remodeling, architecture,
landscaping, or design orientated sites where I could place a tile
advertisement or a content box next to their section of content on
concrete, or their content on flooring options, countertops,
landscaping, pool decking, exterior paving, etc. Or in their online
buyers guide.

While this is not as good as pay per click (in my view), it at least
places our companies’ products and contractors next to people who have
an interest in what we have.

I am not interested in Do it yourself sites, as the point of our
service is for the visitor to call one of our contractor network
members.

I am not interested in sites whose main function is to refer visitors
to contractors also, becasue they are not going to want to work with
us.

I am interested equally in sites that reach professionals
(architects), for example, and consumers.

For each site prospect please provide:

Site name
URL to site
link to section or sections applicable to my product, where my tile ad
or text box might go.
link to info on how much traffic the site has
link to thier "advertise with us page"
contact name and phone number if possible

Thank You
