The Costa Rica Web Hub is special, because it is TARGETED! Only Web sites related to Costa Rica are permitted. (This usually means that the people viewing your banner ad already have an interest in Costa Rica and may want to visit your site).
After joining our exchange, you will be provided with a login name, password and some HTML code to place on one or more pages of your Web site. This code is what tells our server which banner to display on your site, and it also records the number of credits you have earned. For every three (3) banners you display on your site, you will receive two (2) credits on the Costa Rica Web Hub - this is better for you than the 2:1 ratio most common on other banner and link exchanges. Each credit is redeemed when your banner is displayed on another member's site. It's that simple!
The more of your Web pages that contain the provided HTML code, the more credits you can earn for displaying your banner elsewhere.
Sign-up for the Costa Rica Web Hub, and you will automatically be given 100 free credits to “jump start” your involvement. Additional credits may be purchased HERE.
(If, for some reason, you do not want other members’ banners to be displayed on your site, you may still participate by purchasing credits instead of placing the HTML code on your site pages).
To make this exchange program successful for all of our members, the banner ad must appear where it will be seen by your visitors. We do not require placement on the top of your pages, but we do require that the banner is visible to the majority of your visitors. (For example, do not bury the banner at the bottom of a page that no one will be able to see). This will give all of our members, including you, great exposure. We will make periodic checks to insure all members comply to this placement. If any page or pages are found to not meet this qualification, your account will be put on suspension until the necessary changes are made. Frequent abusers of this system will be immediately terminated and unable to participate in the Costa Rica Web Hub in the future.
Any web site that contains Costa Rica-related information, products or services is qualified for membership. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will not accept any site that contains pornography, gambling, or other content that we, in our sole discretion, deem offensive or undesirable. (See also our TERMS AND CONDITIONS).

If you do not have a banner, you can use just about any illustration or Photoshop-type application to create one . . . or you can use one of the multitude of specialty banner-creation applications available. One that we particularly recommend is Banner Maker Pro. (See below). (In the alternative, we will create a banner for you for a $10.00 fee. Write to us at info@CostaRicaWebHub for more information.)
