Archive Management.Org is completely free for consumers, service providers and vendors.  Each derives considerable value from the site:

• Vendors can use the AMO Guides to link to their products descriptions, their technology white papers, and their user case studies, increasing the reach of marketing dollars.  They can also access listings of service providers who are potential channel partners for their products from the AMO Guide to Service Providers.
• Service Providers can list themselves in our AMO Guide to Service Providers so that consumers can find them more readily when seeking to implement an archive strategy.  They can also learn about the broad range of technologies, products and platforms for archiving and the vendors who provide them, helping to identify vendors with whom to partner in customer opportunities.
• Consumers benefit from having information about data archiving neatly organized into AMO Guides and available 24 by 7 on the web.  They can also learn from the experiences of fellow users, as well as share their own experience.

It's a proverbial win-win-win.

However, maintaining a portal like AMO, and creating original content takes time, effort and money.  Doing with AMO what we eventually want to do -- creating a regularly-updated webzine and developing original research, tutorials, seminars and events -- requires sponsorship.

We have defined sponsor opportunities at two levels:

	An Official Sponsor receives a spot in our banner rotation at the top of each page a special listing on our Sponsor pages  a feature spot at least once per year in either our Vendor Spotlight or Service Provider Focus section, as appropriate, in the AMO Insights section of the page We are limiting the number of Official Sponsors to 10 per year.  Pricing is very reasonable.
	A Partner Sponsor receives a spot in our skyscraper banner rotation at the right side of each page a special listing on our Sponsor pages  a feature spot at least once per year in either our Vendor Spotlight or Service Provider Focus section, as appropriate, in the AMO Insights section of the page Partner sponsorship slots are limited to only 6 annually.  Pricing is very reasonable.

Revenues from sponsorship will cover operating costs of AMO.  Sponsors will also have first access to AMO survey data and discounts on advertising rates for AMO newsletters.

Please contact us if you want further information on becoming an AMO Official or Partner Sponsor.

Thanks!
