The Technology

The ad network behind the pages.

Built In-House

An intelligent ad network runs Creations.

We did not bolt an ad exchange onto our publications. We built the ad server. Advertisers, creative, placements, and reporting all live in our own system on Cloudflare's edge, which means no Google ad tag, no auction taking a cut, and no third party sitting between a brand and the readers we spent years earning.

01 / Decisions at Request Time

Every slot filled on the fly

Placements are not hardcoded. As a page is served, the network reads the slot, pulls the advertisers eligible for it, and rotates between them, so a position is shared fairly instead of belonging to whoever booked first.

02 / Format-Aware Creative

The right shape, every time

Each placement declares the format it accepts, and the network matches creative to it. A wide banner is never squeezed into a square, and an Enhanced buy runs its banner and its box as two pieces of real inventory.

03 / Counted at the Source

Numbers that actually happened

Impressions and clicks are recorded by our own server as they occur, not by a tracking pixel an ad blocker can drop. Reporting reflects what ran, broken out by placement.

04 / Nothing Follows the Reader

First-party by design

There is no third-party ad tag anywhere on the site. Pages stay fast, the sites ship a strict content security policy, and reader data never leaves the publication.

Two packages. Standard places your creative in the square units across the site. Enhanced adds a wide banner and runs both, so your brand competes for every slot on the page. Advertisers, creative, and reporting stay with this title. Nothing is pooled into an exchange or resold through a network we do not control.
