Pro Tools Advertising Features

Transparent

Forem is open source, allowing you to inspect the underlying mechanics of our system. Gain confidence in how it works.

Privacy-Focused (No Track)

We serve our own billboards directly, without tracking your web activity. Advertisers have limited visibility into users, but can use UTM links.

Opt-in/Opt-out

Registered members can choose to opt out of viewing promoted billboards and disable them alongside their published content, without any paywall restrictions.

Value-add

Our team manually approves all billboards to ensure they meet our standards and add value to the ecosystem.

Startup-friendly

Get started for as low as $25, without requiring large budgets like other developer advertising options.

Flexible

Enjoy dynamic freedom in crafting compelling messages with billboards that aren't limited to specific sizes and form factors.

Contextual

Target billboards by tag to display ads alongside relevant content.

Broadly Targeted

Leverage aggregated targeting buckets, such as experience level and geographic location, to reach a wider audience.

Optimized

Only pay when your billboard is visible to users. Our system automatically optimizes for the best-performing variants.
