Community Ads

Paged Out! reserves at least one ad page for free Community Ads, which promote free, open-source, and - in some cases - non-profit projects driven by the community. The idea is to use this advertisement space to spread the word about cool free projects, tutorials, tools, etc.

Community Ads are always half-page ads and are published in the zine completely free of charge.

If you're interested in publishing a Community Ad, please:

1. Prepare the advertisement as described in the technical details (and make sure it follows our ad content policy).
2. E-mail it to us at ads@pagedout.institute (and explicitly write that it's a Community Ad) no later than 2 weeks before the issue's planned publication date, so it can go through our review process.

Note: Community Ads are reserved for completely free-of-charge projects and for open-source projects - in both cases in their full-featured versions. Not-for-profit projects that charge a small amount just to cover their costs are decided on a case-by-case basis (e.g. a small conference or meetup charging a small fee to cover the cost of renting a room is usually fine). If you offer paid courses, free-but-limited/pay-for-all-features tools, etc., please consider supporting us with a Sponsorship Ad - thanks! Other cases are also decided individually, so if you're unsure whether your project qualifies for a free ad, send us an e-mail to the above address with a description of your project.

If we receive more Community Ads than we have space for, we'll have to somehow select the ones to actually publish (that means we'll reject some - sorry!). We don't have any specific criteria we'll use, but we'll probably focus on how interesting/cool the advertised topic is. We will also prefer ads in English, as they have a chance to be interesting for a larger audience (however, if there is ad space left, we don't mind publishing ads in other languages as long as we're able to vet them). We'll make the final selection a few days before the issue is published.
