For a free webmail site like the one described by , a compact advertising prospectus makes outreach far easier. Include measurable audience stats (monthly uniques, pageviews, top countries, device split), exact ad placements and dimensions (common sizes: 300x250, 728x90, 160x600, 300x600), monthly impressions available per placement, acceptable creative formats and file sizes, pricing models offered (CPM/CPC/CPA) and clear payment terms. Provide a single-page PDF and an HTML sales page so buyers can download proof quickly.

Practical approach: start with a reputable contextual network to establish baseline RPM/CPC, then pursue direct-sell relationships for higher returns. Marketplaces can help list inventory for small advertisers. For direct deals, offer short paid pilots, require third-party tracking tags or UTM parameters, and include a simple reporting sample (30-day analytics snapshot) when pitching. Useful resources: Google AdSense for contextual display and marketplaces such as BuySellAds for direct listings.

Operational cautions: avoid inserting ads inside users' private messages without explicit consent; comply with privacy rules (see GDPR guidance). Monitor click patterns and CTRs for fraud, keep server-side logs for audits, and require written agreements before granting long-term placements. Exercise care with off-forum private offers (as mentioned by ) — always verify references and proof-of-payment. Test one placement at a time, measure revenue per 1,000 impressions, then iterate.

Make sure that you have a media kit, or some other advertising page, available on your site. You want to make it clear that you DO offer advertising - especially to those who might be interested.

Other than that, all I can really suggest is check out our marketplace: http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/forum65.html
