FAQ

If you are interested in your website promotion, you need to sign up first. As soon as you do that, you will land on the "Search for publishers" section. There you can choose a publisher who will either place your content on their website or create content in compliance with all your requirements and then place it.

You will also be notified about your $10 welcome bonus at Adsy which you can get by topping up your balance within 4 hours after the registration.

Use filters to get a list of the most relevant websites. First, decide which service type you are interested in. You can choose between content placement only or content creation and placement. If you need to place your content on a publisher's website, select the "Content placement" tab.

If you want a publisher to write an article according to your requirements and place it on their website, select the "Content creation and placement" tab. Within that tab, you can choose among 3 content types that have different length and number of allowed backlinks: mini-post, article, and long article.

When you have decided on the service type, use filters to see publishers that match your criteria. There is a list of things you can specify here including price range, website language and categories, hosting country, domain level, etc. To see detailed information about every website use the “Site info” link.

Those are the content types available to order from publishers:

• Mini-post has up to 300 words and 1 hyperlink. Use it if you want to involve your target audience in discussion. Though it's good for social engagement, a big number of short posts may be bad for search engine rankings. That is why try not to make too many of them.
• Article has from 300 to 1000 words and up to 2 hyperlinks. These middle-sized posts usually generate more shares on social media. It is also the perfect size to get more backlinks.
• Long article has more than 1000 words and up to 3 hyperlinks. As a rule, this type of content gets higher rankings on search engines and generates more organic traffic. Such articles are considered authoritative because they contain in-depth information with thorough analysis.

After you have chosen a publisher / publishers, click "Order" button. You will be asked to create a task specifying all the necessary information. The moment you send it, the task is delivered to a publisher who can accept and start working on it or reject it. Task payment is transferred from your main balance to your reserved balance once you send the task.

All prices are set by publishers. Publishers themselves decide what types of service they are going to provide and set prices for them, and Adsy cannot influence them.

Please note that all prices are listed in Adsy credits. 1 credit equals 1 USD. You can purchase credits using any available payment method. Once Adsy credits are purchased, Adsy services are considered provided.

Open offer is an offer you create for publishers who are ready to perform sponsored content services and match your criteria. It allows you to save time searching for relevant publishers, and, instead, to start getting sponsored content services on a regular basis. Once you create an open offer, you’ll start receiving publishers’ bids for it and will be able to choose those who suggest the most appropriate sites at the most appropriate prices.

To create an open offer you need to go to the "Open Offers" section by using the left-side menu in your client panel and click the “Create open offer” button. On the “Create an open offer” page you need to specify the main requirements for this new offer.

• First, decide whether you want the offer to be available to all the publishers at Adsy. Otherwise, choose the important parameters: DA, Category, Domain level, Language, etc.
• Then, choose the price you are ready to pay for the task (use the “Approximate price” field for that) or agree to consider any prices suggested by publishers (using the respective field “Totally open for publishers’ offers”). Think of a name for your open offer to find it later, provide the URL of the site you are promoting, and choose the type of service (as usual, you can order content placement or content creation and placement).
• Lastly, provide some main requirements for the offer, but avoid sending your content here, you’ll have an opportunity to attach it after having chosen the publishers. At this stage, you only need to shortly explain the work you expect publishers to perform.

You have an option to make the offer active immediately and start receiving bids from publishers, or you can put it off by unchecking the box at the bottom of the page. This way the offer will be created, but won’t be visible to publishers until you decide so.

When logged in, you can view the list of all your offers in the "Open Offers" section. Use filters to sort the offers, click Offer name or the bids number to review the offer, see all the bids received for it and act on them. You also have a fast access to the publishers’ bids for your offers in your Dashboard, under the “Accept publishers” tab.
