The whole loop
How sponsoring me works
You pick a placement on one of my channels, send me the creative, and pay the listed price. It runs immediately. There is no agency in the middle, no auction, and nothing to sign — if a spot is open, it is yours.
Step by step
- 1
Find an open placement
Every open spot has a public page: which channel it runs on, what it costs, and how many views and clicks it has been getting. Nothing is hidden behind a rate card.
- 2
Create an account
An email and a password. Accounts exist so you can manage your own placements and see how they are doing — that is all they are for.
- 3
Send the creative
A headline, an optional image, and the link you want people to land on. If a placement needs something written — a newsletter block, a video read — I write it in my own voice and show it to you first.
- 4
Pay the listed price
The price on the page is the price. It runs on points today, so you can walk the whole flow before any real money is involved.
- 5
It goes live, and you can watch it
Your placement starts running straight away. The same public page then shows its views and clicks, so you are never taking my word for it.
Where it can run
Five surfaces, each with its own kind of placement. You can take one, or take everything for a month.
YouTube
A read-out mention in the video, plus a link in the description.
Newsletter
A sponsored block inside an issue, written to read like the rest of it.
Blog
The sidebar slot on every post — the one this whole platform serves.
A story mention or a post, credited plainly as sponsored.
Open source
A logo and link in the project's README and docs.
How paying works
- The price listed on a placement is the whole price.
- No auction, no reserve, no minimum spend, no contract.
- Everything runs on points for now, so you can try the flow risk-free.
- Real payments come later — nothing you do today costs money.
How measuring works
- Each time the placement loads, it counts a view.
- Each tap counts a click and forwards to your link.
- Both are on the placement’s public page — you see what I see.
- No cookies, and no cross-site tracking of my readers.
Good to know
Do you take every sponsor?
No. I turn down anything I would not use or recommend myself, and anything I could not disclose comfortably. If it is not a fit I will say so quickly rather than leave you waiting.
Is a sponsored placement labelled?
Always, wherever it appears — in the video, in the issue, on the page. That is not negotiable, and it is the reason any of this is worth sponsoring.
Do you write the copy, or do I?
Either. For a sidebar slot you send the creative. For a video read or a newsletter block I write it in my own voice from your brief, and you see it before it runs.
Is this real money?
Not yet. The whole flow runs on points so you can walk through it end to end before anything is charged. Real payments are a later phase.
Can I sponsor more than one channel?
Yes. Take a single spot, or a month across everything — the placements are listed separately so you can mix them however you like.
