If you are looking to advertise, provide sponsored posts, or guest post on Ditching Suburbia please read the following guidelines before contacting us:
Advertising
We don’t accept traditional banner ads. Or sidebar ads. Or pop-up ads. Or ads that lurk in the middle of content hoping to not look like an ad. If you have an idea for an ad not listed here, we don’t do that either.
We don’t do “shout-outs” or take requests to share content you’ve created with our audience.
Podcast Sponsors
We do accept sponsors for the DitchingSuburbia podcast. The sponsorship covers editing costs for longer episodes. We mention sponsors:
- At the beginning of the podcast episode
- At the end of the podcast episode
- On the episode-specific podcast page here on DitchingSuburbia.com
Potential sponsors should have products or services related to aspects of the ditched lifestyle (RVing, Boating, Global Travel, etc).
The cost is currently $250 for 5 episodes.
Sponsored Blog Posts
We will consider sponsored posts - where we review a product or service you provide. Our general guidelines (subject to change) are:
- The product or service in question must be directly relevant to families traveling fulltime by RV, boat, or commercial air travel.
- The product or service must promote a healthy aspect of the traveling lifestyle.
- You need to provide us first-hand experience with the product or service.
- We will write the post so it matches the style and tone of the rest of DitchingSuburbia.com.
- Our post will be an honest appraisal of our experience with your product or service. We don’t guarantee it will be positive.
- Our rate will vary depending on the subject matter and the potential profit our audience represents (i.e. if you are selling a $10K product we’re not going to write about it for $100).
- Having a sponsored post published on DitchingSuburbia.com provides ongoing value as people come across the content and learn about your product. We charge a monthly content maintenance fee to continue to provide that value.
