Advertising
Canola Quick Bytes and UScanola.com offer advertisers two ways to promote their products and services to USCA members, canola producers, industry members and other stakeholders.
Canola Quick Bytes
The USCA accepts up to six ads per issue of Canola Quick Bytes e-newsletter, which is distributed the first day of each month. Ads must be placed at least one week prior to publication.
Ads must be 160 X 160 pixels for placement along the left sidebar. Only JPG or GIF files with a maximum size of 72 dpi/KB should be submitted along with a website to which the ad should be hyperlinked.
UScanola.com
The USCA accepts up to eight ads each month on its website that appear on all pages. Ad placement is in the bottom left as part of a continuously rotating slideshow. Each ad appears for 5 seconds before it is replaced by the next. Ads will rotate randomly on each page in different orders, therefore, specific positions (order in which ads appear) cannot be requested.
Average page views per month: 6,500
Average unique visitors per month: 3,500
All ads must be 153 x 153 pixels in JPG or GIF format only with a maximum file size of 72 dpi/KB. A web address for the ad hyperlink should be submitted with artwork. Advertisers may change their ads on a monthly basis if advertising for more than one month. The ad link can be changed at any time upon request.
