Digital Version Reach: minimum (based on online subscribers) This number can be higher as anyone can view the magazine. Printed Version Reach - 5,000 per quarter. Why advertise on the DCJ Websites? Because we have stood the test of time. In 2003, we were the first publication to dedicate itself fully to the data center and we are still going strong amidst the many new data center sites that have popped up over the years. What makes us different? We concentrate on content and member services. Our number one goal is to be a good resource to the industry and not an advertising venue for the vendors. How does that help you as an advertiser? Simple. When you advertise on DCJ you know that your ad will not be competing with a site full of advertisements and vendor sales pitches. The readers know quality and they will visit quality. When you advertise on DCJ you get a run of site banner ad that is well placed w/in the content areas of the site and we don t offer annoying pop up ads that only turn readers away. You will never see Google Ads or other text link ads. We do not allow them on our site. We use our social networks to help promote our advertisers and media partners and we offer vendors the opportunity to present non-biased content on our site which is then cross-promoted through Twitter, Facebook and Digg. Our content syndication program is also cross promoted through an industry wide platform and through social media as well. Advertising on DCJ will get you seen in the niche Data Center market and we offer targeted programs and ad serving. For more information please see all of our web options. Contact Us today so that we may design an advertising program for you. For advertising rates and information contact Donna DiMicele - ddimicele@datacenterjournal.com or call
