Our Advertising Policies & Sources of Revenue

Pain101.com is a website operated by Marketdata Enterprises, Inc., which is a for-profit corporation. We provide a service and are a major source of extensive and useful free content and articles related to pain management topics, for consumers. There is no fee whatsoever to use our website or read any material on the pages comprising the website. A website of this size and complexity has certain operating costs to maintain/host it, and keep it running 24/7, in addition to constantly adding new content.

Pain101.com is an advertiser-supported website. No paid memberships or subscriptions are required of visitors.

In order to cover these costs, we do sell advertising. This may take the form of pay per click text ads in towers or banner display ads on various pages. We may also display videos, with attached ads, or articles with embedded ads. The visitor has the choice of clicking on these ads, or not, (at no charge to them), if they are interested in the offers these companies provide. We make every effort to filter out ads not relevant to the site or its visitors.

Some or all of the ads appearing on this website are served/provided by various ad networks, in addition to ads sold directly by Marketdata.

Marketdata and this website receive NO additional funding of any kind, from any pharmaceutical companies, manufacturers, retailers, trade associations, government agencies, or other parties. in addition, none of the above-mentioned parties funded the creation and development of this website.

Reciprocal Links

On certain pages of our website, you will see live links listed, to other website or organizations. Some, but not all of these may be what are called "reciprocal links", otherwise known as link exchanges. This is where we have agreed to place a link to another website, after carefully scrutinizing it to make sure it meets our strict criteria of being a legitimate website with useful information, and where that site places a link to Pain101.com in return. No funds are received by us in such cases, nor do we pay for these links. They are used simply to share traffic and to increase the number of visitors for each party.
