Where your ad appears
One flat fee, and your card runs in every spot below, across the whole tool library. Here is exactly what it looks like.
Tool page rail
Left and right rail of every tool page, sticky while the tool is in use
Real sponsors running today. This is exactly who you would sit alongside.
Mobile marquee
A strip pinned under the navbar on phones and tablets, scrolling gently right to left. It stays on screen while the tool is in use, so it is seen before the work even starts.
Need something custom, like multiple slots, category exclusivity, or a longer term?

A full article about your product, published on the Rune blog with links to your site. You can supply the draft or we write it.
Link placement
Your link added to an existing, already ranking guide in a relevant section, live within 24 hours.
For pricing, send your target URL through the form above and we will confirm fit, timing, and a rate.
Every placement is vetted for relevance to people who build software. We do not publish gambling, crypto, adult, or off topic links.
A fraction of typical Google Ads cost
Google Ads competes with casual browsers and bots for a developer audience, and typically runs several dollars per click. Every click here comes from somebody who already opened a tool to get real work done.

How long is a term?
Monthly, billed up front. Cancel whenever you want, and your slot stays live until the end of the period you paid for.
Can I pick which rail I am in?
Yes, as long as the position is open. Tell us which side and roughly where in the stack, and we will place you if it is free.
What do you need from me?
A URL, a product name, one line of copy, and your call to action. We pull your favicon automatically, or send a logo file if you would rather supply one.
Who is not a fit?
Anything unrelated to building, shipping, or running software. We turn down gambling, adult content, and anything misleading.
Where exactly does my card show?
In the left or right rail of every Rune tool page on desktop, and directly beneath the tool on phones and tablets. It is never a popup, an interstitial, or anything that covers the tool.
How many sponsors share the page with me?
Ten at most, five per rail, and that number does not move. You are not competing with a rotation of thirty creatives for the same pixel.
Will ad blockers hide my card?
No. It is plain HTML served from our own domain, with no ad network script, no iframe, and no tracker for a blocker to match against.
How do I track the traffic?
Every link carries UTM parameters, so the visits land in your own analytics under your own campaign. You measure it with the same tool you already use for the rest of your spend.
Can I change my copy or link later?
Yes, as often as you want, at no extra cost. Send the new wording or URL and it is live the same day.
Are the links nofollow?
Yes. Every sponsor link carries rel="sponsored nofollow", which is what Google asks for on paid placements. Treat this as traffic and brand exposure, not as an SEO backlink.
