Advertise on TopWapi

There is no paid placement on the leaderboard — and there never will be. Here is what is available instead, and why that is a deliberate choice.

First, the thing we do not sell

You cannot buy a leaderboard position on TopWapi. Not a podium slot, not a featured badge, not a rank bump. This is not a moral position so much as a structural one: the entire value of the board comes from readers trusting that position means something. A rank that can be purchased is a rank nobody reads, and a leaderboard nobody reads sends nobody any traffic — including to you.

What is available

FormatWhat you getHow to arrange it
Editorial partnership A genuinely useful guest article in our guides section, written to our editorial standard, with attribution and a link. Contact us with a proposed outline. We decline anything that is a disguised advertisement.
Newsletter sponsorship A single labelled placement in an edition of our member newsletter. Contact us — rate card on request, availability is limited.
Data collaboration Joint research using aggregate, anonymised leaderboard data. We publish the methodology. Contact us with the question you want answered.
Category sponsorship Naming support for a category hub, with the leaderboard inside it unchanged and unranked by payment. Contact us. Disclosed on the page itself.

What we will not do

  • Sell or alter a leaderboard position, in any form, at any price.
  • Run display advertising, pop-ups, interstitials or third-party ad trackers.
  • Publish sponsored content that is not clearly labelled as sponsored.
  • Sell member or visitor data, in aggregate or otherwise.
  • Place a link because it was paid for rather than because it is useful.

How to start

Send us a short message describing what you want to achieve, and we will tell you plainly whether any of the above is a fit. If it is not, we will say so rather than sell you something that will not work.
