Advertise With Us

Reach an engaged, search-led UK audience across entertainment, culture, business and technology.

JList reaches a UK-focused audience that comes to us for entertainment, culture, business and technology reporting. If your brand wants to be part of that conversation, we would like to hear from you.

Why advertise with JList

Our readers arrive through search and social with clear intent — they are looking for the story, the background and the context. That makes for engaged sessions, strong scroll depth and an audience that actually reads the page rather than bouncing off it. Advertising alongside that kind of attention performs very differently from advertising against passive impressions.

UK-firstCore readership across the United Kingdom, with a growing international audience
Search-ledThe majority of sessions begin with an organic search for the topic
Editorial trustEvery commercial placement is clearly labelled and separated from reporting

Formats we offer

Display advertising

Standard IAB units across the homepage, category archives and article pages, sold on a monthly basis or through a run-of-site package. Responsive placements are available for mobile-first campaigns.

Sponsored articles

Long-form branded content written to our editorial standards and published with a clear "Sponsored" label. We will work with your team on the brief and handle the writing in-house if you prefer.

Newsletter placements

A single sponsor slot per send, positioned above the fold, with your copy, image and destination link.

Category takeovers

Exclusive presence across an entire section for a defined period, including a branded header treatment and all display inventory within that section.

Our commitments to readers

Commercial partnerships never influence what we cover or how we cover it. Sponsored material carries a visible label at the top of the page. We do not accept advertising that is misleading, that targets children, or that promotes products we believe would harm our readers. We do not sell links inside editorial articles, and every commercial outbound link is tagged appropriately so that it carries no search value. Advertisers receive no advance access to editorial coverage and no right of review over stories that mention them.

What we will not run

We decline campaigns for adult services, unlicensed gambling operators, payday and high-cost short-term credit, unregulated financial or cryptocurrency schemes, and any product making health claims that are not supported by evidence. We also reserve the right to decline any creative that we consider inconsistent with the tone of the site.

How to get started

Email our commercial desk with a short outline of your campaign — the brand, the goal, the rough budget and the dates you have in mind. We will reply with a media pack, current availability and pricing. Bookings are typically confirmed one to two weeks before the campaign starts, and creative is due five working days before the live date.

Please note that we cannot answer editorial pitches, guest post requests or link-building enquiries through the commercial address. Contributor pitches belong on our Write For Us page.
