'Takeover Ads' on alivenotdead.com

Dear alivenotdead.com users and friends, You may notice our homepage looks a bit different today! We've been experimenting with new ways of making alivenotdead.com into a sustainable company, both through event hosting, partnerships, social marketing and also online advertising.  We've had some success in all these fields which has helped us stay in business through the economic downturn the last year.   We always appreciate all the understanding and support from our users,  without you we would be out on the street! One thing we're experimenting is the 'Front Page Takeover'  you see above.  Its a new type of ad unit which has been gaining popularity with many top websites.  We hope this new approach is interesting and not disruptive to our existing user base. The first test for this new unit is the one you see above,  the Legend Fighting Championship, a new mixed martial arts promoter organizing an international MMA event in Hong Kong on January 11th, 2010.   Please check out their official site for more info -  www.legendfc.com We hope with your patience and support that we can continue to stay in business and improve our site to help artists and their fans.   Thanks in advance for your continued support! >-Admin Bear (aka the alivenotdead.com team!) |

為了令alivenotdead.com能維持在一定的水平，我們一直在嘗試不同的新方法如舉辦不同的活動，夥不同的團體合作，製作網上廣告等等。在每項嘗試，我們都獲得到不同的成績，面對上年度的環球經濟下挫，仍能讓業務維持過往的水平，這都有乃各界和各用戶的體諒與支持。

近來的其中一項嘗試是以上圖片中所見的'Front Page Takeover'  。這種新型廣告在不少受歡迎的網頁廣受歡迎。我們期待各用戶也對此感興趣，而並非感到厭惡。

首位登上front page版面的有the Legend Fighting Championship，一個將會在２０１０年１月１１日於香港舉行國際ＭＭＡ，促進武術的團體。請探訪他們的網頁以得到更多更新的消息-  www.legendfc.com 

希望未來的日子，我們能繼續得到各界的諒解及支持，以令我們能夠維持業務的水平，繼續致力幫助與促進藝人與粉絲的關係。

讓我們再次多謝各位在過往及未來的支持！
