We charge by the number of "impressions", which is the number of times that your banner or ALT text is displayed to viewers. This is by far the most common advertising model on the web, and it's similar to the way
that newspapers or TV stations charge for advertising. The costs for varying numbers of impressions, as well as the cost per thousand (CPM) for these levels, are given below.
