Communication Arts Banners drive traffic to Directory of Illustration

As you may already know the Directory of Illustration consistently runs 50,000 banner ads every month on Communications Arts Magazine’s website driving creatives to DirectoryofIllustration.com. These banners are free to every illustrator on our site and will send a creative directly to your portfolio. These banners run consistently in rotation on our home page as well.

Regarding the Directory print + internet program: Overall site traffic is up 29% on top of a 19% increase the previous year. We average 20,000 visitors per month with a bump after the 18,000 books are distributed in January -- for example, we had 24,000 visitors last February and 29,000 last March. An advertiser can monitor their own stats/activity on the back end of the site as well.

FLOW - a marketing campaign to keep you engaged

For several years now, Richard Solomon Artists Representative has been successfully advertising with The Directory of Illustration. In addition to his efforts with us, Richard and his team are always thinking of new ways to showcase their diverse group of award winning talent with unique and dynamic promotions. 

For the past year they were working on something really special, an idea to help set them apart: FLOW. The artists worked in collaboration and conjunction with his/her immediate neighbors and made sure that all the pieces connected to create one continuous work of art, with each composition flowing into the next. Have they succeeded? You decide. 

Wednesday they launched the project with only the first 4 images and for the next several weeks, will be releasing images regularly so stay tuned by following them on:
