Jumper Bailey's Bully Pulpit to Offer Free Advertising for Bloggers

(openPR) - DALLAS, TX - Jumper Bailey's Bully Pulpit ("The Little Blog with a Great Big Heart") has announced that it is offering free advertising to bloggers for a limited time.

The advertising, which is available in 125 x 125, 120 x 90, 120 x 60, and 88 x 31 pixel sizes, is available for download free of charge from the Bully Pulpit website.

"Webmasters are welcome to download these buttons and place them on their servers, or they can simply copy the HTML code and insert the buttons into their pages if they prefer," said Bailey.

The buttons, each a variation on the theme "Jumper Bailey Is Not Right," sport black backgrounds with red, white, blue lettering. The smallest button is available in blue and white lettering only.

"I left out the red on the smallest button," Bailey said. "I thought doing so might serve as an incentive for them to use the bigger buttons."

Bailey emphasized the buttons' visual appeal.

"I gave serious thought to the creation of these buttons," Bailey explained. "I really wanted to create something that would stand out and have an impact."

Bailey said that although he eventually planned to charge webmasters for the use of his buttons, he would not do so for those taking advantage of the limited-time offer.

"No," he said. "If they download and use the buttons now, I won't charge. Those buttons will be theirs to keep. No strings attached."

Bailey said that he felt the free-button offer would be attractive to webmasters.

"Prestige is very important on the Internet," he explained. "Having the right kind of advertising on your website sends a powerful message to visitors."

Bailey resisted the suggestion that he provide reciprocal advertising in exchange for the use of his buttons.

"Look," he said. "They're free. I don't know what more you want."

"Webmasters will either use them or they won't. If they don't know a good deal when they see one, that's really not my problem."

"These are nice buttons," he said, terminating the interview.
