Who can advertise?

Kinkster.org ads are intended for anyone who wishes to promote a product, website, Kickstarter project, etc—or just for fun/to get a message in front of the Kinkster community. Ads can be commercial or non-commercial.

We offer managed campaigns on a flat rate basis. Our managed campaigns feature advanced capabilities such as geo-targeting, frequency capping, road-blocking, and detailed reporting.

For more information about managed campaigns, please e-mail advertise@kinkster.org with details about what you'd like to advertise, your budget, and flight dates. A representative will respond to your inquiry as soon as possible.

What can be advertised?

All advertising campaigns (advertiser, creatives, links, etc) are subject to Kinkster's approval before commencing.

General Ad Guidelines:

1. Ads must be of acceptable quality, and "worksafe."
2. No explicit ads will be accepted.
3. No ads inciting raids or containing personal information will be accepted.
4. No ads that are harmful or malicious in nature will be accepted.
5. No affiliate marketing (referral, direct marketing, etc).
6. You may not advertise products or services that violate United States or local law.
7. Landing pages must match ad content (i.e. no "bait & switch" advertising).
8. Ads cannot purport to be "official" Kinkster ads.
9. We only accept static banner ads in JPG, PNG, and GIF formats. Animated GIFs, Flash, rich media, etc are not accepted.
10. Purchasing any advertisement on Kinkster does not exempt you from our strict "No Advertising" rule on the boards. You are purchasing a banner ad only—not the ability to advertise your product/site/etc in regular posts.
11. Kinkster reserves the right to reject any and all advertising at its sole discretion.

How long will it take for my campaign to be approved?

We do our best to approve or reject campaigns within 48 hours. If you have special time constraints, please e-mail advertise@kinkster.org

How long will my ads run for?

Ads will run for the duration of purchased time.

Note that your campaign will not begin until it has been approved (you'll receive an e-mail when this happens), and is subject to inventory availability.

How can I check on the status of my campaign?

Campaign information can be viewed at the Your Campaigns link on the Self-Serve Ads page (approval status, impressions delivered, etc). A report will also be sent to you once your campaign is complete.

Can I run more than one campaign at a time/purchase multiple ad products?

Yes! After you've set up one product, you'll have the opportunity to immediately add more at the end of the setup process. You can also purchase additional products at any time from the Self-Serve Ads page.

If I purchase more than one ad product (i.e. the 300x200 and 468x60), will my ads be shown on the same page?

Potentially. Your ads are served in a rotation with other campaigns. If you purchase more than one ad product, your ads may or may not show up on the same page at the same time. Interested in taking over all of a board's ads for a given number of days? E-mail us.
