The rules for a week on the site.

The directory

Editorial listings are short summaries and links. They are not ads. A listing can be wrong, incomplete, or marked Demo. Read the source before you act on it. We can edit or remove a listing at any time.

Sponsored means sponsored

Every paid placement shows a clear Sponsored label. The outbound link is marked sponsored. A sponsorship is not an editorial endorsement, a review, a ranking, or a statement that we use the product. You may not write a pitch that says we endorsed you, named you an editor's choice, or ranked you.

Sponsors do not appear inside the use-case list. The placement is the footer bar and, on the Site + Email package, a labeled mention in that week's Daily 5. We write the email line. You do not get the subscriber list.

No guaranteed results

We do not guarantee impressions, clicks, signups, pipeline, or revenue. A week is a labeled placement for seven days starting Monday 00:00 UTC, not a performance contract.

How many, and how you pay

At most two sponsors run in a given week. We may run one. Site is $199. Site + Email is $299. Prices are in US dollars.

The form on this site does not charge PayPal or a card. We send a PayPal invoice or confirm payment with you, review the creative, and schedule the week after that review. Until a PayPal webhook is connected, an operator marks payment by hand. If payment is not confirmed before the week starts, we may hold or remove the placement.

Refunds

Refunds of amounts already paid are available only if the placement is cancelled before the sponsored week starts (Monday 00:00 UTC). Once the week has started, the fee is not refundable, including unused days. If we reject a placement before the week starts, we refund amounts paid for that week.

What we will not run

We reject advertising for:

• Illegal products or services
• Adult sexual content
• Gambling
• Drugs or drug sales
• Weapons
• Scams and get-rich-quick claims
• Multi-level marketing
• Hate or extremist content
• Child exploitation

We can reject or take down a placement that breaks these terms, even after you have paid. If that happens before the week starts, the refund rule above applies. The destination must be a public https URL.

Your creative

You are responsible for the pitch, logo, and landing page. You grant us a license to display them for the week you bought. You confirm you have the rights to them and that the landing page is lawful.

Newsletter

Subscribing to the Daily 5 is optional and separate from sponsorship. Unsubscribe any time. Details are on the Privacy page.

Liability

The directory is provided as-is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for lost profits or for decisions you make from a summary or a sponsor's site. Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited.
