With over 60,000 daily RSS subscribers and 600K monthly page views, my little hobby site is no longer that. Constant traffic from major sites such as Chicago Tribune, Digg, Yahoo.com, etc., has helped Dumb Little Man build a strong base of readers that is growing each day.
Dumb Little Man's audience is quite unique. Despite the name of the site, I believe our readers are quite intelligent and have an above-average knowledge of technology, entrepreneurship, and overall productivity - not only in business, but at home as well. Most importantly, they are dying to learn about things that make life simpler.
To see some pretty specific stats, feel free to view reports at our Sitemeter Site or at Quantcast.
Shown below are some standard advertising options. If you have other ideas, feel free to contact me at tips@dumblittleman.com. If you need any assistance designing an ad or coming up with a good text link, I can help.
Advertising Options
Before you get started, know that I am fairly picky and do not accept gifts or money in exchange for product or book reviews. If you are advertising for anything remotely shady, I will decline your offer. While the revenue would be nice, I am aiming to keep this site clean.
So, with that, here are your options. After you select your duration and display type, remit payment through Paypal and email me your art and links. I will then be in contact within 24 hours to help modify your ad (if needed). Unfortunately, I cannot assist with your ad campaign until you purchase a placement.
- 125x125 Banners
Located just below the fold of all DLM pages, these banners are shown directly beside our articles and features. You can see these placements by looking on the right side of this page.
Ordering is as easy as selecting the length of time and paying through Paypal below. Once payment is sent, please email your art and URLs to tips@dumblittleman.com and we'll get started. - Text Link in DLM Marketplace
Every article page on this site has a section labeled "DLM Marketplace". In this section, you get a link and a couple of sentences to explain the link, site, service, etc. This is the cheapest way to advertise on DLM. Look to the right and you'll see it.

We have over 60,000 daily feed subscribers and all of them have a deep interest in making life easier. If your ebook, site or product can do so, this is a great place to promote it.

We have partnered with Federated Media and they handle the most visible ad placements on Dumb Little Man. All of these ads are above the fold and will be placed on 100% of our pages. If you want to truly customize the ad and create a real conversational campaign with our readers, this is THE way to go. The ads are all CPM (Cost per Thousand) and today's rates may be viewed here.
If you have any questions or if I have made this confusing, don't hesitate to give me a shout at tips@dumblittleman.com.
Thanks!
