Advertise
We currently sell sponsorship packages, semi-permanent icons on the front page as well as text advertising. Semi-permanent icons are sold in lots of one million impressions; pricing varies and must be determined by individual contract. Large banners are the most prominent form of advertising on the Factor. Banner ads are sold based on desired CPM rate. One CPM represents 1000 impression (or views) of your advertisement. These banners are not refreshed during a visit, but are rotated randomly with other advertisers.
Small developer discounts are available in some situations. Impression and click-through tracking options are a standard part of any advertising package.
Ad insertions and prices quoted are based on a 3 month commitment, unless otherwise negotiated. Generally, a 10 percent premium will give the flexibility you desire.
Our billing is done via email. Our terms are ‘Net 10′ from the invoice date (generally within the first ten days of the month) unless otherwise negotiated. Prices quoted reflect a 3-month, 10-percent discount, while 6-month or 1-year contracts receive more generous discounts and customized packages. All late invoices are subject to late fees and will be prorated, if the full inventory is not delivered.

Free advertising for early news submissions
For a limited time, OS X Factor is offering up to 5000 free 468×60 ad impressions for any (exclusive) advance news submission by a company. Less significant news items will receive 3000 bonus impressions for each advance submission, while more significant (to be determined by editorial staff) will receive 10,000 free 468×60 ad impressions for each submission.
News items must be published on OS X Factor.com to be eligible for free impressions. Additionally, companies can earn up to 2,000 extra impressions for each day in advance the news submission is received (before the general release or availability through other news outlets)–for up to 10,000 additional impressions on “more significant” news item submissions.
Companies must send early/exclusive press releases/news items to press@osxfactor.com or news@osxfactor.com and follow-up by email at ads@osxfactor.com for free ad impressions. Impressions may accumulate up to 100,000 and will only be delivered in minimum 15,000 impression blocks. Companies who earn 50,000 impressions may also be eligible for additional discounts on standard sponsorship packages. (OS X Factor reserves to terminate this limited time program at any time.
