We are happy to offer free advertising on the main page of d20pfsrd.com, as well as within the left side-bar of every page of the site (over 15k pages) to any 3rd Party Publisher releasing content for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. We average 1.5 - 2.0 million pageviews per week and 15k daily unique visitors. If you think daily exposure to that would help your product you should get in touch with us.

Several publishers have already done so, including Jon Brazer Enterprises, TPK Games, the makers of Hero Lab, and others. The only commitment from you is that you need to send us one or two banner graphic ads, sized either (or both of) 728px x 90px (wide format) or 160px x 600px (tall format) and then tell us where you want us to link them to. We run your ads for at least one complete month. If no other publisher has sent us an ad to post at the end of your month, you stay up. If you'd like to know if this can help your product, please feel free to contact the folks mentioned above. I'll just say that they seem very pleased by the results thus far.

TPK games ads will be going back up for December. January is currently open. If no one jumps in we'll either leave TPK up or alternate between them and the Hero Lab folks who have already sent us ads (and are posted now.) This is first come- first served so if you want in, don't delay.

I will say this: JBE saw a notable increase in traffic on our site during our time where we had banners on d20pfsrd.com. Props where props are due.

Anyone who would like to get involved can email me directly at jreyst@gmail.com. Be sure to send the ad graphics in the dimensions specified above and include the URL you'd like us to link them to.

Note: The tall graphic will appear in the left sidebar (and therefore appear on ALL pages of the site, whereas the wide graphic will appear on the main page only, in the spot currently occupied by the Hero Lab graphic. While that's only one page, the main page (obviously) gets significantly more traffic than any other page of the site. If you send one of both formats, they'll both go up.

Sidenote #1: I love your products Creighton. Top-notch.

Sidenote #2: Thanks Dale! We're glad to be able to help support and promote the Pathfinder market.

Hey, I just wanted to shout out from all of us at TPK Games and no doubt all the other 3PP folks a sincere thank you. You are supporting the hobby by allowing all of us to advertise on your site for free. No doubt, we will all return the kindness shown and contribute in whatever way we can to the d20pfsrd.

I'm building up a massive bank of "goodwill points" so I can go nova.

Update to 3pp: The vertical slot is open for THIS DECEMBER, as in, starting TOMORROW to any 3PP who sends me an ad graphic in the specified dimensions and includes desired URL.

First come first served.

Oh and say thanks to TPK Games for giving up the vertical slot to whomever wants it :)

Shadow Lodge

If anyone else would be willing to do the same, I'd love a vertical spot in the March-June time frame.

Just saw this and sent you an email.

Brian from TPK mentioned to me in an email that he didn't need to (or want to) use the vertical slot we have on d20pfsrd.com - he only wanted the horizontal. He suggested I just give it to someone else, and if you look SGG is now in that spot (they beat LPJr. by 5 minutes lol)

For future reference, if any of you just want to use one or the other let me know ahead of time so I can let someone else grab the other slot.

This is just me as a active fan of gaming. But I think it would be cool if everyone did that. Let the main person get the main top banner and then let a second person get the side one. I am in favor of exposing as many people to 3pp stuff and keeping their sales up as possible.

Minor correction: The horizontal (wide) banner is at the bottom of the main page, not the top.

Also, the ad in the left sidebar appears on all 15,000+ pages of the site.

The ad on the main page ONLY appears on the main page. So, it behooves publishers to consider which is more likely to drive more traffic. The main page gets FAR FAR more traffic than any other single page, BUT an ad on 15k+ pages might do better simply because its on every available page.

So I guess I could just say that each publisher, if he wants to only use one slot, chooses which one he prefers then gives away the other.

Ah i assumed they was on both on all the pages. Maybe they could be to help increase people being aware of them.

Unless you're volunteering to hand edit 15k pages there isn't an easy way to add to all pages other than in the sidebar :)

Depending how you do the page and if you do it with code and then upload the code. There is a program called jedit that allows you to make a change to a page and then apply it to all pages. Depends on how you do it on how easy it would be to do and what code it is written in etc.

We use Google Sites, which is not like normal hosting solutions. You can't (easily) edit locally then upload mass changes. It CAN be done but its a painful process.

Pity, if you could to do all the pages would take the same amount of time as one with Jedit.

Shadow Lodge

I was definitely hoping to start a trend with the sharing of banners. If anyone is willing to do the same and let us have a slot later in the year, let me know. It would be appreciated. My email is below.

Also, Dark_Mistress - I'd love for you to send me your email again, so we can hook you up with some review copies of upcoming releases. Thanks!

What the hell my ability to write English. It is really starting to go away, I keep noticing horrible grammar mistakes that I have no idea how or why I posted that way.

Heh. It's ok. We do sometimes all ourselves!


I sent a pair of banners to your email!

Love your site, couldn't live without it.

The Exchange

Ok, Dreadfox took November and Avalon Games just contacted me for December. That's it folks, we're booked solid for 2012!

If any of you want to trade or share months (i.e. one of you takes the vertical while the other takes the horizontal slot) I just need an email from both of the trading/sharing parties so I know everyone's cool with it.

ALSO! Just a friendly reminder: This is only open to 3PP who are producing Pathfinder-compatible content. If others want in ya got's to PAY ME PHAT STACKS OF CASH! :D All our PF peeps get a free ride :)


Wanted to add feedback from Lone Wolf related to the ads we placed on the site in November. We placed ads for Hero Lab and saw an increase in traffic to our site from d20pfsrd that surpassed our expectations. I hope everyone enjoys similar results.

The Exchange

Heads up! Banner ads for Super Genius Games should be going up tomorrow. I hope those who have ads up in December have had a positive result of being there. Happy new year all!
