1. Button
A simple button is an easy and cost-effective way to put your brand on a page. If you have a
well-designed button and simply want to drive traffic to your website, a button can be the most
economical way to do that. We offer three main button sizes, all Internet standard (Japan Zone
button in the left menu area is 120x120 pixels, the largest size available). There is also a special
rate for buttons on the high-traffic Japan Zone main page, which can be up to 140x60 pixels. See our
links page for examples of other button sizes.

2. Newsletter Ad
Make the most of the high response rate of email advertisements. With a four-line advertisement, you can get a
detailed message across to your prospective customers. If your ad includes a clickable email address and/or URL,
they will be included as extra lines - but at no extra cost! The newsletter currently goes out twice a month. But
even if this increases (for example, to weekly), you will not be charged for the extra issues during the period you have
already paid for. There is no minimum advertising period.

An ad box allows you to use graphics, text and even a cgi script (hosted on Japan Zone server)
or javascript in order to create a more effective and interactive advertisement (see Japan Zone ad box in the left menu area). If you have any special requirements or would like to have a
customized script, that can be arranged at no cost. There is a limit of one ad box on any page.

5. Dedicated Page
With a dedicated page, there is almost no limit to the things you can do. And at Japan Zone, you
can get one at less than the cost of just a banner at many other sites. Other than your actual marketing
message, a dedicated page can include any number of forms, quizzes, competitions, giveaway campaigns...you name it. The
page (www.japan-zone.com/yourpage.shtml) can also be used as your online presence if you can't
host a similar page yourself.
And to ensure that your page gets lots of traffic and gives you the best possible value, the dedicated page
comes as part of a package. At no extra cost, you can combine the page with up to three items from the above (any
combination of buttons, banners and ad boxes) to bring people to your page from within the site. That represents
a huge value of up to $330 (¥40,000).
We can also work with you to promote the page outside the site to bring visitors from elswhere.
