Sponsorship Demo Overview

Overview

The Makers Guild publishes first-hand craft information in seven languages. Sponsored content is clearly labeled (PR) and pre-reviewed to protect reader experience. This page covers:

• 1) Ad demos (Front / Single)
• 2) Placement & sections
• 3) Display rules
• 4) Submission specs

Ad Demos

Check the live layout and balance. The demo pages place mock ads in slots A–L.

On the Front page, ads are inserted between key sections in rows of four. Slots are positioned as follows:

• Topics – Press Release: Slots A–D (row of 4)
• Popular Posts – Recommend: Slots E–H (row of 4)

On Single posts, slots A–L stack vertically in the right sidebar; on mobile they move below the article body.
