Paged Out! zine has two kinds of advertisements:
Ads Deadline For Issue #3: To be Announced Soon
In Paged Out!, we reserve 1 page worth of ads for every 10 articles, rounded up (so in case an issue has 45 articles, expect 5 pages of ads at most). At minimum, 1 ad page in each issue will be dedicated to Community Ads - more if there are not enough Sponsorship Ads to fill the reserved advertisement space.
Important: All ads will be reviewed by our internal ethics committee.
Sponsorship Ads can come in two formats - half-page ads (750 CHF) and full-page ads (1500 CHF) - and can showcase commercial products, tools, companies, services, etc.
The income from these ads directly supports the Paged Out! project and the article authors (as per the Standard Author's Agreement profit sharing variants). Thanks :)
Please contact ads@pagedout.institute directly if interested.
Community Ads are always half-page ads and are published in the zine completely free of charge. The idea is to use the unused advertisement space to spread the word about cool free projects, tutorials, tools, etc.
If you're interested in publishing a Community Ad, please:
Note: Community Ads are reserved only for completely free-of-charge projects (in a full-featured version!). If you offer paid courses, free-but-limited/pay-for-all-features tools, etc., please consider supporting us with a Sponsorship Ad - thanks! 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.
In case we receive more Community Ads than we have space, 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.
At this moment, we accept ads in two export formats:
The ads themselves can also come in two sizes: full-page ads (Sponsorship Ads only) are the same size as the articles, and half-page ads (Community / Sponsorship Ads) are the same width, but slightly less than a half the height of an article.
Full-page ads are the same size as an article - that means they are NOT the size of a full A4 page, but allow for margins and Paged Out! header/footer.
The actual size (see also the diagram below):
Half-page ads are the same width as an article (i.e. same width as a full-page ad), but slightly less than a half of its height. One advertisement page contains two half-page ads, with a 20mm separator in between.
