| I would start out at around $3-$5 for both ad placements and see how it goes. You are in a very highly competetive market. | ||||

I always recommend starting low and slowly raising your rates as you see fit...This way you are sure to sell the space. If you start with rates that are too high, you will never sell the space...thus you don't make any money. Start low and slowly increase the rate if you see that they sell quickly. Do this until you find that it's hard to sell the spots, and then stop raising it.

| I agree that for starters $5 is a fair rate.

Well, that's hilarious  So .. this seems a good price you thought off. As soon as you get more traffic and members and have more people interested, increase the prize. Best of luck
