click measurement once analytics are connected - every sponsor gets their count at the end of the run
Measurement is cookieless (Umami). Clicks on your unit are counted per placement and reported at the end of the run. No personal data, ever.
The rules, up front
- Every sponsor passes the same hand review as organic listings. If it would embarrass the page it sits on, we decline it.
- Sponsorships are always labeled. The directory’s only asset is trust; we do not sell it quietly.
- One sponsor per slot at a time. No bidding wars, no bait-and-switch.
- Organic listings never lose position to sponsors. Featured slots are additive.
- You’ll get a confirmation screenshot of your placement the day it goes live.
