We have advertising solutions for every budget, and are able to tailor an advertising strategy that fit your goals. For the extremely budget minded we offer a press release service* that costs you nothing, and gets your message to our audience. For those looking to promote your brand name we also offer attractive ad banner rates that are designed to allow you to monitor their performance. We offer discounts on a case by case basis.

* We do not guarantee a submitted press release will be published to the AINews site. All stories are subject to a variety of factors, such as relevance and openings in what stories will be posted. On a slow news day you may be in luck, on a busy day you may get passed by. Just the nature of the site.

  • Each slot may have a maximum of 5 banners assigned to it from different advertisers.

Now we get to where the action is, our story pages. These are the pages that enjoy fantastic indexing in Google and other search engines. It's also where our readers stop and, well, read.

We've broken this down into 2 distinct buying categories. You can purchase a slot to have your banner show up when a story from any section is read, or focus in on an audience with interests in a specific section.

Please note, advertisements for our Front Page and our Stories are seperate purchases.

Terms and Conditions

These are our basic guidelines to advertising with AINews. The primary focus of all these rules is to insure everyone is playing fair and that the AINews audience is presented a clean and easy to navigate site.


Billing Details
  • When the check clears, the banner goes up.
  • For returning advertisers we allow a 7 day grace period for late payment before we pull a banner
  • We offer a money back guarantee in the event of technical issues on our end that prevented your banner from being seen.
  • Other than technical issues on our end, all sales are final once the banner enters rotation.
  • The minimum time frame you may purchase is 1 month.
  • The maximum is 1 year.
  • At present we offer a flat/fixed monthly fee only.
  • We do not offer "cross advertising". Example: You host a banner for us, we'll host one for you. All banner slots are paid for, never traded.
Banner Policies
  • AINews has a strict no nudity policy, which applies to our advertising banners as well. We love sexy banners, but we leave the actual showing of the naughty bits to providers of that content.
  • Our nudity policy extends to a matter of taste as well. All banners must be approved by AINews staff prior to being put into rotation. We reserve the right to pull any banner that we consider too risque.
  • Banners with rapid strobe like animation are not allowed. Banners like this do not generate a greater response, but they do negatively impact the site and the value of other advertising on it. This is a matter of interepretation which AINews staff will evaluate on a case by base basis.
  • We do not offer, nor do we plan to, Macromedia Flash ad banners.
  • We do not offer, nor will we ever, pop up or pop behind window ads.
  • All advertising images must be hosted on the advertiser's web site. We want you to be able to measure your own impression results.
  • Changing the banner to be displayed without approval from AINews staff will result in your banner being pulled from rotation. Money will not be refunded for a violation of this policy.
  • Images must adhere to either the stated sizes above or be specifically approved by AINews staff. We can be flexible on this, but only to a point. Like any web site we have layout issues to consider.
