Thanks for your interest in advertising on auntcalamity.com,
which subscribes to AAAA/IAB Terms & Conditions standards, v2.0.

I'm seeking high-quality advertising partners whose products and services are relevant and useful to my very intelligent, hip visitors.

I paid a king's ransom to my hoity-toity, wishy-washy, mamby-pamby designer and he convinced me about the benefits of clean design, spacious margins and white space - lots of white space.

That means that the locations for ad placement are somewhat limited here. On the other hand, those limitations should ensure that visitors find this a visually comforting place to be, and that's good for everyone.

There are some reasonable restrictions on advertising we accept:

  · Ads on inner content pages only (no ads on home page).
  · Per-page max of 600 aggregate vertical pixels.
  · No sites with adult or gambling content. Period.
  · No sites that download malware or send spam. That's huge.
  · No obscenities or violent or misogynistic verbiage. Nasty!
  · No seizure-inducing, flashing, cheapo trash ads. I get migraines.

Violations of these policies will result in immediate cancellation of IOs.
And I will call your mother.

Still interested?

Please email my manager to discuss specific arrangements and pricing.
He's taking far too many naps anyway and the cats want their sofa back.
