Advertising policy
What we will and will not run, and how sponsorship works.
What we will and will not run, and how sponsorship works.
What we sell
Business listings, guide sponsorships and neighborhood hub sponsorships. Everything is a fixed term with one sponsor per placement.
What we decline
We do not run payday lending, adult content, or anything we cannot verify as a real, operating business.
Labelling
Every paid placement is labelled. Sponsored stories carry the label at the top of the page.
Editorial separation
Sales staff do not assign stories, and writers do not see the advertiser list before they report.
