Sponsorship — Featured slots

Get your spot.

Ten featured slots, $19–49 a month, locked at that price for the founding cohort. Your logo, name and one line — on the homepage rails and every category page. The counter below is the real inventory, and every paid link says so in its markup.

House rules

Every paid link is marked

Sponsor links carry rel="sponsored nofollow noopener". That is not a favour to search engines, it is the line between the editorial index and the ad slots.

Money cannot move a ranking

Boards are votes only. Sponsorship buys the rail on the right-hand side and nothing that appears in a list of tools.

No rate card we cannot justify

There is no display inventory and no premium tier until we publish a real traffic milestone. Until then the price is deliberately low because the audience is deliberately small.

Questions

What are the numbers today?

Small and honest. toolfound is new: we publish real traffic figures in the weekly recap rather than a media kit, and we will not sell a premium tier until there is a milestone worth quoting. Ask and we will send you exactly what the analytics say.

What does a slot include?

Your logo, name and one line in the sponsor rail on the homepage and every category page, linked to your site. No pop-ups, no interstitials, no newsletter takeovers.

Can I sponsor and launch?

Yes, and they stay fully separate. Sponsoring never changes a launch date, a queue position or a vote count — the rail and the boards are two different things, and money only ever touches the rail.

How do I pay?

For the founding cohort we arrange payment over a short email exchange. There is no checkout on this page on purpose: we would rather talk to the first ten sponsors than process them.
