Questions about implementing Voice Over Web
How much does VoiceOverWeb cost ?We have very reasonable packages with pricing intentionally kept affordable so all small and medium enterprises can easily justify this great selling tool. With a small sign up fee and costs from $55 per month including GST, VoiceOverWeb provides a very cost-effective online advertising tool.
Will VoiceOverWeb work on my website ?
We've designed VoiceOverWeb to use the very widespread Flash Player (which provides the 'bells and whistles' part of the presentation) while utilising the minimum 'bandwidth' possible. This means it is a truly universally adaptable solution proven to work on the vast majority of browsers in the current marketplace. Download speeds are manageable, and downright quick on a broadband connection.
How long is the average presentation ?
We suggest either 30 second or 60 second presentations are well-suited to VoiceOverWeb ads.
Who writes my ad copy ?
Please feel free to provide your own suggested script for your 30 second or 60 second VoiceOverWeb presentation. Alternatively, if you'd like to send us a link to your brochure or website, one of our experienced copywriters would be pleased to provide a suggested script for your approval.
Why is VoiceOverWeb better than video ?
VoiceOverWeb isn't necessarily 'better' than video, which can be quite impressive on a high speed connection, but we believe VoiceOverWeb is more robust and reliable in the current varied technology environment. While most video is virtually unusable over a low speed dial-up connection, VoiceOverWeb is adaptable to almost any form of internet connection.
Why is VoiceOverWeb better than images or web text ?
VoiceOverWeb offers your site visitors the chance to absorb combined auditory and visual information - with a sales message that is pleasant, yet virtually impossible to avoid. VoiceOverWeb is catchy and modern, and a far more powerful combined medium than relying on a typical static webpage to get your message across, offering an obvious competitive advantage to your web business.
How do I get a VoiceOverWeb presentation onto my actual site ?
Once we have produced your ad voiceover and produced it with your selected images, we will provide a test link. At the same time, we'll give you a snippet of code which you or your web designer can enter on the required portion of your web page. Alternatively one of our experienced designers can assist with this process, if its foreign to you.
What size are the VoiceOverWeb presentations ?
The width and height of the presentations can be chosen from the following :
A. 160 pixels wide x 226 pixels high
B. 250 pixels wide x 286 pixels high
C. 300 pixels wide x 320 pixels high
D. 780 pixels wide x 560 pixels high
E. 1004 pixels wide x 680 pixels high
The actual file size of the final presentation will vary dependent on the length of audio voiceover and the number of images included. The average size of 30 and 60 second presentations might be expected to vary between 500KB and 1.5MB. Please note the full presentation downloads in a streaming style of media so presentations will load relatively quickly in the user's browser.
What size and type of images do you require from me ?
Any gif or jpg image, in Windows PC format, ready for web publication, will be suitable for your VoiceOverWeb presentation. The image dimensions should be at least as wide as the final presentation size chosen from the above list, as follows (the height is less than the full presentation window to allow for the player controls) :
A. 160 pixels wide x 106 pixels high
B. 250 pixels wide x 166 pixels high
C. 300 pixels wide x 200 pixels high
D. 780 pixels wide x 440 pixels high
E. 1004 pixels wide x 560 pixels high
How long must I purchase a VoiceOverWeb presentation for ?
Our minimum ad period is 3 months, after which each of the future quarterly costs include a free update of images and content of your presentation as required. After the first 3 months as passed, you are free to cancel your ad subscription in writing at any time. One month's written notice of termination is required, and cancellation fees are limited to the remainder of the current quarter's subscription. Should you only wish to purchase a single 3-month period, simply let us know at the time of subscribing and we will ensure you are not invoiced again after the initial 3 months, and discontinue your presentation at the expiration of 3 calendar months from sign up.
