Advertising, Events Calendar and Media Partnerships

Podcast Advertising

• Podcast Ads – This ad is an audio ad that appears in our podcast (Pre roll, Mid roll or Outro) – You supply the text and call to action (max 100 words) and we will record it with our voice over and mix it into a podcast episode. Your business, product or service will also be mentioned in the liner notes of the podcast.
• Sponsored Podcasts – Sponsored podcasts are unique podcasts episodes where we interview you about your product or service, or we specifically discuss your business product or service. Includes one podcast ad (pre-roll) and your business, product or service will also be mentioned in the liner notes of the podcast.
• Social Media Blast (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter) – We will share an image, text and link about your product or service on our social media channels. You can either submit the image, text, link & profile callout and we will share it, or if it requires product placement, then you must send us the product to include in our own photo. (Shipping and return shipping must be paid by you)
   

Website Advertising

• Sponsored Blog Posts – You provide an up to 800 word post about your product or service which will exist on the website indefinitely. You can link to this post, excerpt it for your own marketing, or quote it on your own site. Sponsored posts will be shared once on our social media channels (facebook, twitter, LinkedIn and Pinterest) Each post must include two graphics: 1 header graphic (1200 x 630) and 1 social media graphic (1080 x 1080)
   

Editorial Approval

All ad submissions are subject to approval. If we deem that an ad is not appropriate for our content for any reason, you may submit a different ad, or receive a refund. To avoid abuse or misuse, we prefer that graphics files be hosted on our server. 

Your product or service must be in keeping with the content and purpose of our website. The products and services that would be appropriate for advertising on our blog include, but are not limited to: virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR or XR), 360 photos, videos and camera equipment, related industry events, technology, computer and mobile hardware, headgear, games, software, books & DVDs on similar topics.

Ads for unrelated products or services will not be accepted. If you substantially change your website or webpage, so that the ad no longer links to a product or service related to our content, then (in our sole discretion), we may issue you a pro rata refund and remove your ad.
