What can the website offer potential sponsors?

The Glasgow & Edinburgh sites have a phenomenal amount of traffic!

The cheapest way of gaining a presence is to be listed on the architecture links page. The fee is £40 per annum, or £45 for Glasgow Architects on their own page linked off both links, and importantly, off the homepage.

Alternatively, sponsor a page, as a simple live logo link or as a logo linked to your own company profile page. For example, the Glasgow news page is sponsored by Tangram Furniture; the Contemporary Interiors page is looking for a sponsor.

Simply e-mail your logo and upon payment the link can be up within 24 hours.

Any advertisment / sponsorship can be tailored. As a guide, only live linked logo prices are listed below with logo maximum pixels provided:-
