Advertising on Uneed
If you want visibility on Uneed beyond a launch day, there are three paid placements. Here's what each one is, where it shows and what it costs. Everything is also listed on uneed.best/advertise.
The audience
- 100,000+ monthly visitors, mostly founders, developers, designers and marketers looking for new tools
- 75 DR domain
- 26,000+ newsletter subscribers, around a 40% open rate
1. Premium Spot
Your product featured at the top of all listing pages (homepage included), independent of votes and ranking. One-time payment:
| Duration | Price |
|---|---|
| 1 month | $197 |
| 3 months | $497 |
| 6 months | $897 |
There's only a limited number of Premium Spots at a time, so availability depends on what's free when you buy. Full details in Premium Spot.
2. Main ad spot (sidebar)
A card in the "Our Partners" block, with your logo, name, a one-line description and your brand color. $297 for one month, paid upfront.
- Desktop: at the top of the right sidebar on the homepage, the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly rankings, every product page, category and tag pages, and the community.
- Mobile: there's no sidebar, so the block appears below the product list on the homepage and the rankings.
- 2 slots, shown together and in random order on each page load. When both are taken, ask us to put you on the waiting list and we'll tell you when one frees up.
After payment, send us your logo, name, description, link and brand color, and we set it up within 24 hours.
3. Newsletter sponsoring
The main sponsor slot in Uneed Weekly, sent every Monday to 26,000+ subscribers at roughly a 40% open rate. $249 per issue, $448 for 2 issues, $597 for 3. You can pick your week on the newsletter sponsoring page.
Good for a launch, a big feature release or a seasonal offer: it's a one-shot burst rather than a sustained presence.
Tracking your results
Every click leaving Uneed through a paid placement carries tracking parameters (ref=uneed.best plus UTM parameters), so you'll see it in your own analytics without setting anything up.
Newsletter sponsors automatically get the number of people who clicked a few days after their issue. For the sidebar and Premium Spots, ask us and we'll send you the clicks for your period.
How to buy
Premium Spots and newsletter issues can be bought directly from /advertise or the pricing page. For the main ad spot, or for anything custom, contact us in the chat and we'll sort it out directly.
What about partner perks?
We're not taking on new partners for the /perks page at the moment. If that changes, it'll be announced in the newsletter.
