Our Advertising Pricing

Guest posts are published in our News section in a news-style format. Recommended length is 800 to 1,500 words. We do not accept toplist-style articles, and our blog does not accept guest posts.

The standard link guarantee is 12 months; in practice, links usually stay live well beyond that. Every guest post is do-follow and carries a Sponsored label with a short paid placement notice per FTC guidelines.

We place your do-follow link with contextual wording inside an existing blog or News article.

Contextual links are placed from the second section of the article onward, not in the introduction. In ranking articles, link insertions are available only to companies already listed in that article, placed within their own section. Companies not yet listed can book a ranking position instead. The standard link guarantee is 12 months. Per FTC guidelines, articles containing paid links carry a one-line paid placement notice at the top; individual links are not marked.

Sponsor cards shown on every page of the site: up to five cards in the Partners menu in the header, and up to three cards in the footer. Each card holds your logo, brand name, a one-line description, and a link carrying a sponsored attribute.

The minimum term is 3 months, paid upfront. The standard card layout is included; the custom fee applies only if you want the card designed to your own specification. We only accept sponsors with a real, working website.

Yes, in three formats. Each format includes one do-follow link; a second link to the same domain is $40.

Product feature section: a new section about your product, written by TechTide and added to an existing Blog or News article. The section heading carries a Sponsored badge and the article carries a one-line paid placement notice at the top.

Standalone hands-on product feature: a new article about your product, written by TechTide from access or credits you provide, published in News with a Sponsored label and a notice at the top stating it was produced by TechTide Editorial with material provided by the sponsor.

Brand feature story: a full feature about your company, written by TechTide from material and access you provide, published in Growth Studies with the same Sponsored label and notice.

Access or credits you provide are treated as part of the sponsorship and are covered by the same label.

Technology, software, SaaS, online marketing, SEO, web design, digital business, and other IT-related industries.

For crypto and finance topics, the sponsor must hold verifiable licenses for the regions the article targets, articles may not include profit claims, factual claims must be substantiated with sources, and articles keep a risk disclaimer. Other sensitive categories are reviewed case by case and may be declined.

Our labeling follows FTC guidance for paid placements, and these terms apply to every order.

Labels. Sponsored articles and brand stories carry a Sponsored label with a short notice at the top. Articles with paid link insertions carry a one-line paid placement notice. Paid toplist entries carry a per-entry Sponsored badge. Site-wide sponsor cards sit under a sponsor label. Labels are part of the product and are not negotiable at any price. Details are on our Advertising Disclosure page, linked in the footer.

Substantiation. Factual claims about your product must be verifiable. We may ask for sources and will adjust or decline wording we cannot stand behind.

Copyright. You must hold the rights to all content and images you supply.

Images. Guest posts run with images produced by TechTide; brand images you supply are used only when agreed in the order confirmation.

Placement standard. Contextual links go from the second section of an article onward; introductions stay link-free.

Review. Every submission goes through editorial review before publication, and we may decline content that conflicts with this policy.

Turnaround. Standard turnaround is 24 hours, counted from editorial approval and payment, not from first submission.

Edits. Edits after publication are $25 per request.

We accept PayPal and Payoneer. Payment is due upfront, before publication. Every order is confirmed by email before payment, and the confirmation keeps the quoted price and scope for that order. Rates may change over time; quotes are valid for 15 days, and confirmed orders always keep their quoted price. On stability: the 15-day quote window is a standard safeguard for unexpected changes on our side, not a plan to revise rates regularly.

Cancellations and refunds depend on whether your order has been published.

Before publication. A cancelled order is held as credit for 90 days, usable across your clients. If you prefer a cash refund, we refund the amount minus payment processing fees. Writing work already delivered, such as an article we wrote for you or a custom listicle we created, is non-refundable. Credit, once chosen, cannot be exchanged for cash.

After publication. Once your placement is live, the order is complete and non-refundable. We will remove content on request, but removal does not create a refund or credit.

Sponsor slots. Cancelling a site-wide sponsor slot stops the renewal; the paid term runs to its end and the remaining months are not refunded.

Removals on our side. We may remove a placement at our discretion, with no refund or credit, if the placement or the page it links to becomes unlawful or exposes us to legal risk, if the link redirects or leads to a destination other than the one confirmed in your order, or if the content of the linked page changes materially after the order was confirmed.
