Do the links pass PageRank?+
No, and any site that tells you otherwise is risking your money and theirs. Every paid link here carries rel="sponsored" with a visible partner label, which is what Google requires. You are buying qualified referral traffic and brand presence in front of media buyers — not a link scheme that gets the domain penalised and your placement erased.
How fast does it go live?+
Link placements go live within one business day of approval. Written work — editorial integrations and sponsored articles — takes up to five business days, because someone actually writes it.
What happens if I cancel?+
The placement comes down automatically at the end of the paid period. No email chain, no chasing. Payment state drives what renders, so there is no scenario where you keep paying for something already removed, or where we forget to remove something you stopped paying for.
Can I pick which article?+
Yes — you paste the URL of the article you want in your panel. We do not publish a list of every page we own, so bring the URL you already found, or tell us the topic and we will propose the right one. This is for the per-article products; a network quota does not work that way, see below.
How does the Network Quota rotation actually work?+
Every rotating slot on the property asks the same question — which of the 10 quota holders is this one for? — and answers it with a hash of the surface, not a counter. That is why a page served from cache and a page rendered live never disagree about who is on it, and why no holder can be starved by another holder's traffic. Each surface kind is dealt separately, so you get your share of the articles, your share of the sidebars, your share of the emails — not a share of the site that happens to be all email. The whole property is re-dealt every 7 days.
What does one quota actually mean in practice?+
Roughly 10% of every rotating slot, on all 5 surfaces, for $999/mo. In practice: open 10 different articles and you should expect to see yourself on about one of them. It is a share of impressions, not a spot you own — if you refresh and find a competitor, that is the product working, not a fault. Two honest caveats. First, it is a fair deal rather than a meter: across the catalogue a holder typically lands within a few percent of their 10%, not exactly on it. Second, an even split of PAGES is not an even split of VIEWS inside a single window, because our articles do not get equal traffic — that is what re-dealing every 7 days is for, and over a few windows it evens out. Want more than 10%? Buy the quota again; each unit rotates as its own ticket and the weighting is automatic.
What happens to my quota if someone buys exclusivity?+
Nothing. Quotas and Network Exclusivity are declared mutually exclusive in the catalogue, and the check runs before an exclusive placement is allowed to hold a slot — so while your quota is live, exclusivity is not sellable at all. That order gets refunded or scheduled for after your month ends. We do not take a paying partner down to make room for a bigger one, and the rule runs in both directions: while exclusivity is running, no quota can be sold to anyone either. The sitewide bar is in the same bucket — it cannot run alongside exclusivity, because a competitor's bar pinned to every page is not "the only advertiser on the property" by any reading.
Can I choose which surfaces or pages my quota runs on?+
No, and that is deliberate: the even spread IS the product. The moment we filter a holder onto the pages that match their vertical they stop being everywhere and start being concentrated on a handful of pages — the one thing a quota promises not to do. If you want a specific surface, buy the product that is that surface: Sticky Sidebar Feature for the sidebar, Newsletter Feature for the newsletter, Link Placement for an article you name, Sitewide Sticky Bar for a bar on every page. What we can do inside the quota model is category exclusivity: from 3 quotas ($2,997/mo) we contract not to sell a quota to a competitor in your category for the paid month — same even rotation, no rival anywhere in it. That one is arranged by email, not by a button.
Do you accept blackhat offers?+
Yes. We cover blackhat and whitehat angles editorially and we do not moralise about them commercially. What we refuse is anything illegal, anything that misrepresents what the buyer receives, and direct competitors to our own product.
Can I write the copy myself?+
You can. Your panel has an editor that pulls the live article text so you can propose an edit in place — every change you make is highlighted and sent to us as a reviewable diff. Our editors sign off before anything publishes. Most advertisers let us write it, because copy in our voice converts better than copy in theirs.
