Advertising and partnerships

Advertise with us

AMK News sells its advertising directly. There is no fixed price list: each campaign is quoted on its format, its position, how long it runs and the markets you want to reach. Tell us what you need in a short brief and we will send a proposal within two working days.

Start an advertising brief About two minutes, mostly taps.

Limited to a small share of what we publish.

Sizes follow the IAB standard ad units, so creative made for other publishers will usually fit without rework. Formats can be combined; a package is usually better value than a single placement.

How it works

  1. Brief. You fill in the brief: your goal, the formats that interest you, timing and a budget range.
  2. Proposal. Within two working days we send recommended placements, dates and a price, together with our audience figures for the previous 30 days.
  3. Creative. You send the artwork or the article brief at least three working days before the start date. We check it against the standards below and confirm the schedule.
  4. Live and reported. The campaign runs on the agreed dates. Afterwards you receive a report with impressions and clicks; campaigns longer than two weeks are reported weekly.

The numbers we give you

AMK News launched in 2026 and is still a young publication. We would rather show you real figures than a polished claim, so every proposal includes our own first-party measurement: page views and visitors that carried proof of a human reader, with crawlers, automated traffic and our own staff removed. If we are not yet the right size for what you want to achieve, we will tell you so.

Creative requirements

  • Static JPG, PNG or WebP, or animated GIF. Animation runs for at most 15 seconds and loops no more than three times.
  • File weight up to 150 KB (250 KB for the 970×250 billboard). Please also send a double-resolution version for sharp screens.
  • One destination address per creative, served over HTTPS. Tracking parameters in the address are welcome.
  • We host the creative ourselves. Third-party scripts are not accepted; a third-party impression pixel can be added on request.
  • No sound, no expansion on hover, no imitation of system messages or of our own headlines.

How we keep advertising and journalism apart

  • Advertisers have no say in what the newsroom publishes, and no advance sight of it. A campaign does not buy coverage.
  • Every advertisement is marked as one. A sponsored article carries “Advertisement: paid content from” and the advertiser’s name above its headline, on the page and on every card that links to it. It does not appear in our news feeds or news sitemap.
  • Links in paid content and in advertisements are marked rel="sponsored", as search engines require. We do not sell links that pass ranking credit, and we do not insert links into existing news stories.
  • We do not run pop-ups, full-screen interruptions, video that plays sound by itself or large units that stay fixed to the screen. Advertising never takes up more than a small part of a page.
  • Advertising is contextual: it is matched to the page, not to a profile of the reader. See our privacy policy.

Advertising we do not accept

We decline political and election campaigns; gambling and betting; tobacco, vaping and recreational drugs; weapons; adult content; payday loans and high-risk financial products, including unlicensed crypto or forex offers; health or financial claims we cannot verify; and anything illegal in the markets where it would be shown. We may decline or remove any advertisement that would mislead readers.

Questions

Can you just send me your prices?

Not usefully. The same placement costs a different amount for one week in one section than for a quarter across the site, so a single figure would mislead you. The brief gives us what we need to quote properly.

Is there a minimum spend?

The smallest booking is a single day on the homepage or a single sponsored article. Tell us your budget range, even a rough one, and we will say plainly what it can buy.

How quickly can a campaign start?

Display can usually start within five working days of an agreed proposal. Sponsored articles need about ten working days if we write them.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. Say so in the brief and name the client you represent.

Can I propose a partnership instead of a campaign?

Yes: content partnerships, event media partnerships and similar. Choose “Something else” in the brief and describe the idea.
