How Adspotfinder works

From "who sells ads?" to the person who sells them — the four steps, what every list is ordered by, and the questions worth asking before you trust a number.

Four steps to a shortlist

1
Find the sellers

Start from a subject, a market or a channel: newspapers in Poland, podcasts in Spanish, billboards in Kenya. Every listing is a place that sells advertising, not a search result.

2
Compare how you buy

Each seller says which doors exist — self-serve, an ad platform, a private deal, its sales house — with the ad spots on offer, what they are priced by, and the cheapest way in.

3
Open the details

How to buy, the rates and the platforms that reach a seller sit behind one credit. Opening a page keeps it open: you never pay twice for the same seller.

4
Go to the seller

Every route ends on the seller's own advertising page or media kit, read and dated here. You buy from them directly; nothing is booked or resold through this site.

Measured, not scored

No listing carries a score out of ten. A single score would have to decide, for everyone reading, that reach matters more than price or the other way round — and it does not. So a list here is ordered by one stated measure, and the figure it was ordered on is printed beside every entry.

That is why the directory is ranked by traffic rather than by us, and why a collection says whether its order was computed or chosen.

What is in here

31,994 listings that sell advertising, 6,989 ad spots with what they cost, 1,292 ad platforms and exchanges, across 205 markets. Websites, newspapers, TV, radio, podcasts, newsletters, billboards, cinema and retail media — each one read from the seller's own pages.

Questions

Can a seller pay to rank higher?

No. Position comes from the measure a list names — usually traffic — and it is the same measure for every entry. A paid plan opens locked sections faster; it does not move a listing up.

Is the price shown the price I pay?

It is the price the seller published, with the page it was read from and the date it was read. Adspotfinder takes no payment and no commission: you agree the figure with the seller.

What if a seller publishes no rates?

Then the listing says so and points at the seller's own advertising page or media kit. An empty rate means nobody has published one, never that advertising is unavailable.

How do I get a seller listed?

Submit it. Once someone has read the site and found where it sells advertising, it is published, filed under its subject and market, and appears wherever those are browsed.

How much does it cost to advertise?

It depends on the audience far more than on the format: the same banner is a few dollars on a hobby blog and five figures on a national newspaper. That is why every listing shows what it reaches next to what it charges.
