One sponsor.
One week.

Please Quote Me is an oral history of creativity — a quiet, text-first library read by people who care about music, art, and the people who shaped them. A single tasteful ad rides the reading pages for a week. Priced from what it's actually worth — no auctions, no tracking, no games.

Each week is priced at its own reach when you reserve it, so multi-week runs are an estimate at today's rate — you always see each week's price before you pay.

What runs

YOUR
SQUARE
IMAGE
Your linked headline
Up to 90 characters of tagline beneath it — the Daring Fireball shape.
Sponsor

Your week buys three placements:

  • →The sponsor slot on every reading page, all week.
  • →A newsletter mention reaching every subscriber once during your week — a direct link to your own site.
  • →Write a sponsor post and it earns a permalink and rides both our sponsors feed and the featured feed.

Never beside affiliate links, never sold to trackers.

How it works

  1. 1 Pick the next open week — weeks run Sunday to Sunday.
  2. 2 Upload your square image, headline, tagline, and link. Add a sponsor post if you like.
  3. 3 Pay by card. Your card is authorized now and charged when we approve — a day or two.
  4. 4 We review every ad by hand. If it's a fit, it goes live the following Sunday.
  5. 5 Not approved, or it doesn't clear? The week is freed and you're not charged.
