Sponsored mentions
Reach the independent web in one line.
One sentence and a link, labeled “Sponsored”, scrolling across every site in the Honorable exchange: personal blogs, indie products, newsletters, docs. Readers who chose those sites, not an audience segment. No creative to produce, no pixels to place.
What you get
- Your line, network-wide. Up to 120 characters and an https link. We proof it; you approve the final text.
- Honest numbers. A report of viewable impressions (half the bar visible for a full second) and clicks, per day. Blocked or unseen bars are never counted.
- A clean reputation. Text only, labeled,
rel="sponsored". Publishers opted in; nobody is surprised. - Members get paid. Half of every sponsored mention goes to the sites that carried it.
Pricing bands

Self-serve checkout opens when the exchange reaches 25 sites. Until then, we run sponsored mentions by hand.
