Are you sure you want to go this route? You can expend a lot of effort
getting traffic for your site just to have them hop away on a banner. We
looked at banners and they didn't appear to work well.
Our policy is to NEVER put an external link on a commercial website that
distracts a potential customer. Personal websites and non-profit websites
are of course different.
If you build a wesbite with good content and expend the hour or so a week
required to register it on the search engines, it should do well.
searchenginewatch.com is a great place to start learning. Give yourself
some time, it may take a week or two before you understand what's happening.
