What kind of businesses should advertise here?
Any local Shuswap business that serves renters, outdoor enthusiasts, or visitors is a great fit — marinas, campgrounds, auto shops, restaurants, accommodations, outdoor gear stores, farm suppliers, tow services, and more.
What size and format does my ad image need to be?
We accept standard banner images (recommended size: 600 × 400 px or larger, landscape orientation). JPG and PNG formats work best. If you don't have a ready-made image, we can help point you in the right direction.
Can I change my plan or cancel at any time?
Yes — all plans are month-to-month with no cancellation penalties. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time by contacting us before your next billing date.
What is the difference between Pay Per Click and Pay Per View?
Pay Per Click (PPC) charges you only when a visitor actively clicks your ad and visits your site — great for driving direct traffic and conversions. Pay Per View (PPV) charges per impression (each time your ad appears on screen) — better for building local brand awareness even if visitors don't click.
How do budget caps work on PPC and PPV plans?
You set a maximum monthly spend. Once your variable charges (clicks or views) reach that cap, your ad automatically pauses for the rest of the month — so you never get a bill you didn't expect. The $45 base fee is charged regardless of whether the cap is hit.
How are charges calculated and when am I billed?
All plans are billed monthly. Entry Plan charges are fixed. For PPC and PPV, your base fee is charged on your billing date and variable charges accumulate throughout the month and are billed in arrears. All amounts are subject to applicable GST/PST.
