The Chamber of Commerce has two locations in which banners ads can be purchased for placement:

1. Chamber Membership Directory
   http://www.tylertexas.com/membership/index.php

2. Chamber Events Calendar
   http://www.tylertexas.com/calendarexpress/week.php?cid=2
   

The manner in which the banner ads are displayed varies based on the location of the banner:

CHAMBER MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY

Banner placement on the Membership Directory is only available to current Chamber members. Members placing a banner in the directory receive exclusive rights to display their banner in any category of their choosing; however, the choice must be made from an existing category and cannot be placed in a category in which another member has paid for this exclusive right.  This exclusive right allows the member to ensure their banner is always displayed when a targeted category is selected by a visitor.

For all other pages in which a banner does not have exclusive rights, a single banner, selected from among all active banners, will be randomly displayed at the top of the page when a visitor performs an alphabetical, categorical, or text based search.  The odds of a particular banner being displayed are equal among all active Membership Directory banners and are based on the total number of active banners.  For example, if the directory has 20 active banners, each active banner has a 1 in 20 chance, or 5% chance, of being displayed randomly on the top of the page.

Chamber members can add additional banners to the Membership Directory, include the same banner in another exclusive category, or add their banner to the Events Calendar for only $250 for each additional banner/category.  The discounted price is effective if the decision to place the additional banner is made within the first 3 months of the first banner’s placement or renewal.

CHAMBER EVENTS CALENDAR

Any business can place a banner on the Chamber Events Calendar.  Banner are displayed at the top of Yearly, Weekly, Monthly, and Today’s Events calendar view pages.  Banners are randomly selected from among all active Event Calendar banners.  The odds of a particular banner being displayed are equal among all active banners and are based on the total number of active banners.  For example, if the Events Calendar has 20 active banners, each active banner has a 1 in 20 chance, or 5% chance, of being displayed randomly on the top of the page.

Multiple banners can be placed for $500 each for non-Chamber members, and $250 for Chamber members.
