Menu of ad options
We believe strongly in the wall between editorial and advertising so all our ads are sold by third parties. Here is how to select the spaces you want and how to contact the party who sells it. There are many location and rate options depending on your budget. Below is a tasty menu.
(Space A) Leaderboard 728 x 90 pixels

(Space C) Skyscraper 300 x 600 pixels
Spaces A, B, and C are best suited for major corporations with significant ad budgets. You pay per 1,000 pageviews (CPM). Ads are run of site, meaning they appear on all 2,000+ pages. This means your ads enjoy maximum visibility and impact. You can buy for as long or short as you want, or set a dollar limit.
