2. Choose how to approach your target sites: There are several ways to approach target websites about purchasing ad space. In general, you can approach the websites directly or go through a placement agency. (I’ll give you examples of the different types of placement agencies in this chapter.)

3. Create your ad.

4. Deploy your campaign.
