Recent kudos for Technovelgy.com:
Technovelgy recieved a "2005 Top 100 Sites You Didn't Know You Couldn't Live Without" award from PC Magazine.
"Technovelgy is
one of those sites with unlimited surfing potential—its
articles are short and punchy, and each offers links to another item
or three just as intriguing. With more than 700 entries in its SF inventions
archive—and a fiction sample appended to each—it is also
a great place to go to sample new authors, particularly those writing
hard SF. Inspiring inventors and engineers to create real versions
of imagined technologies is one of SF's greatest spinoff benefits.
This
site celebrates that ongoing accomplishment with panache and humor."
Sci-Fi.com Site of the Week
"If you're a
scientist into science fiction, this site is a must for you... One
of the cleverest
ideas I've seen this year. Rating: Excellent"

About 90% of our readers are in the US and Canada; the rest are scattered over the globe.
Your text advertisement would be shown on almost all site pages (excluding the home page). Over the last few months, the site has averaged 100,000 visitors per month and 400,000 page views per month. Your advertisement will run "above the fold" (that is, it will be immediately visible on a typical 800x600 computer screen) to ensure maximum impact. Technovelgy receives traffic from an ever-widening circle of sites every month, guaranteeing lots of fresh new eyeballs - not just the same users every week.

The number of click-throughs you get from your ad depends on many factors; how it is written and the percieved relevance of your product to our readers, among others. Note that studies of Internet retail sales e-commerce show that ads in web pages typically bring in 5 times the return off-line.
Book authors have a free option for exposure on the Technovelgy site. If your book has some good "technovelgy" - that is, some good original science fiction inventions - you can submit them for inclusion in our index. (Inclusion in the index depends on your material; self-published books or e-books may not qualify).
Authors are also welcome to send a copy of their new book; use the contact form to initiate the process.
Keep in mind that all proposed technovelgy items and books must be approved for site inclusion; it is not automatic.
All ads must be approved to run on the site, to ensure relevance to our audience; approval is typically given the same day. Once approved, your ad will appear on the site within a few hours. Your ad could be up and running by tomorrow.
