December 1997: Will 1998 be a "Banner" Year?
- If you decide to sell advertising on your site, you could either be opening up a cash box or sticking your foot in hot water. If you've got your own sales team and the technical resources to manage an in-house ad server, a group of software vendors can provide you with sophisticated ad management software. If you lack these resources, however, don't despair -- for a higher price, you can use an ad-reach network, taking all the work of selling advertising out of your hands. We examine the costs and benefits of each approach, as well as a few solutions that fall somewhere between outsourcing and do-it-yourself.
