Advertise on Boardgame News

An unsolicited testimonial from Jackson Pope, Reiver Games on his blog, "Creation and Play"—

"I'm now trying to crank up the interest in It's Alive! The adverts are doing well, driving a lot of people to my site. I'm getting a lot more click-throughs from BoardGameGeek than from Boardgame News which is to be expected as BoardGameGeek is the more popular site. Strangely though, all but one of the pre-orders I've received have been through the Boardgame News advert. Odd."

Odd, Jackson? Not really when you consider that Boardgame News covers the world of board and card games with:

• announcements, release dates, and other game-related news items
  
• previews of upcoming games
  
• convention coverage of Origins, Gen Con, Spiel, Toy Fair and more
  
• exhaustive previews of the Nuremberg and Spiel conventions featuring hundreds of new games
  
• reviews of recent and not-so-recent games
  
• interviews with designers and publishers
  
• daily columnists writing on a wide range of topics

Thousands of game aficionados around the globe turn to Boardgame News every day to see what's new, giving you the opportunity to let them know about your company and your offerings. Debuting a new game? Launching a sale or special offer? Tell the BGN readership about it by purchasing an ad in one of the sizes shown on this page:


Ads in Action

Your ad must be an image, not text, and it will link to the URL of your choice. All ads appear under an "Advertisements" banner in the left- or right-hand columns. The layout has been altered on this page to show you where ads are placed. Prices for the ads reflect their positioning on the page, with 180 x 150 ads costing the most relative to their size due to their prominence. Articles and columns – not to mention the extraordinarily long previews and convention write-ups – typically carry readers down a screen or two, which will give other ads eyeball time as well.

While BGN doesn't accept animated ads, you can submit up to three images in the appropriate size, and the images will change as users click around the site. Ads will also rotate in their order on the site.

Rates

Ads are sold on a monthly or weekly basis for a fixed price, as BGN doesn't track clicks or impressions. Discounts are available if you purchase two or more months of advertising at a time. For ad rates and visitor counts, please write me.

Questions?

If you have any questions, whether about advertising or anything else related to BGN, please write me.
