Put your brand where the day’s stories meet.
Daily Junction sells its own inventory directly — no middlemen, no auction black box. Book fixed rate-card placements instantly, bid in the weekly auctions for the premium positions, or send us a brief and we’ll build the campaign around you. Direct-sold placements replace programmatic ads in that position for the whole booking, so your brand stands alone.
Fixed-price tenancy slots
The workhorse placements — sidebar MPU, in-article native card, section sponsorship, newsletter and Live TV — sell at a published weekly price. First come, first served: pick a start date and book from your dashboard.
Bid for the premium positions
The homepage billboard, arcade interstitial and News Wire sponsorship are contested, so they go to a rolling weekly auction: a floor price, a £5 minimum raise, closing every Sunday at 18:00 UTC. Highest bid runs the following week.
