I would like to congratulate you and thank you for your decision to advertise on Dedoimedo. If you have a website or a product that you want to advertise, you have come to the right place. Please invest a few minutes of your time to learn more about advertising on Dedoimedo.
Dedoimedo offers two main types of advertising:
1) monthly subscription for individual or multiple slots on select pages.
2) custom advertisement campaigns, as agreed between you and me.
Monthly subscription
Monthly subscriptions allow you to lease advertisement slots on popular pages for the duration of one month, regardless of the number of impressions or clicks, with no rotation. You gain exclusive rights to the advertisement slots for as long as your subscription is valid.
You may ask to have your advertisement placed on any page you want, within the limits of design. Available slots include 160x160px square, 160x600px vertical banner and 768x90px horizontal banner. Square and vertical banner slots are available on any page in the Software & security section or the index page. The horizontal banner is available on any other page, above or below the article areas.

You may also choose text format. See below.
Custom advertisement campaigns
If you do not want to use the monthly subscription, you can contact me with your own suggestion, for example your own advertisement format, pricing scheme or something else. Dedoimedo accepts advertisement for products only related to software, hardware, gaming and art, to some extent. Dedoimedo reserves the right to reject any advertisement offer without further notice.
All prices are in USD, for a duration of 30 days, from the moment the advertisements have been activated. The prices are subject to change without prior notice, although active subscriptions and campaigns will not be affected until they expire.
160x160px square - USD50/month for single page
160x600px vertical banner - USD100/month for single page
768x90px horizontal banner - USD100/month for single page
Newly added: A single static RSS feed advertisement - USD200/month (custom formats available)
All payments will be handled securely by PayPal.
All prices are negotiable. Please contact me for details.
You will get discounts for bulk subscriptions of multiple slots or long-term leases.
Before you decide whether advertising on Dedoimedo is worth your money or time, you might want to take a look at my website statistics.
Dedoimedo enjoys approx. 400,000+ visitors, 550,000+ monthly pageviews, plus 200,000 RSS feed views.
Dedoimedo has Google PageRank 5.
Some popular pages have approx. 15,000-30,000+ monthly views, including the index page, the Software & security section, GRUB tutorials, dual boot tutorials, new cool list of Linux programs, a number of game and distro reviews, several physics articles, etc.
To give you a rough estimate of what you might expect:
For a USD50 subscription, this means your advertisement will garner ~500-1,000 daily impressions, for USD1.66/day. This translates into roughly 0.17-0.33c per impression cost or CPM USD1.7-3.3. For the newly launched RSS feed advertisement slot, the expected CPM is USD1.00. You will receive generous discounts for long-term leases of multiple advertisement slots. If you believe these costs promise a viable return of investment on your end, feel free to contact me by email.
