Our standard advertising spaces:
All banner positions are ROS (run-of-site).
Leaderboard
The Leaderboard (728×90 IAB compliant size) is the most prominent ad space available. Sitting at the top of the page it is the most viewed ad placement on the site.
Size: 728x90px – this is an industry standard size recognized by the IAB.
Sponsored research
Our sponsored reseach is for clients who want to share more with our community. Specifically dedicated to research papers, it includes a premium position banner placement advertising the latest research paper. This position is at the top of our right hand side features column. The banner links to a sponsor branded micro-site where users can read the sponsor’s latest research reports and consult previous research papers. The micro-site also offers space for the sponsor to describe their company and link to their own site.
This is a shared position between 3 clients (max) – the three banners rotate in the space every 30 seconds.
