Promotion pricing
Public prices — take them straight to your committee. Listing is free regardless; promotion buys labelled reach on top.
Invoicing available — a numbered invoice in your institution’s name and address, payable by bank transfer within 30 days.
Spotlight
A full-width band above the listing grid on your field and country pages. Two of up to four buyers show per page load.
Four buyers per field, two shown at a time
Scarce by design, and the visible slots rotate through the running campaigns by the minute rather than on every reload, so each campaign gets an even share across the hour. Reports show delivered impressions, since you will not always see your own listing.
Featured
Your listing at the top of the results grid, with the brass label. No rotation — every visitor sees it.
Capped at 20% of a page’s listings
No rotation — a Featured listing shows to every visitor, labelled, above the organic results, up to the share of the page stated above. Order within Featured is oldest campaign first, so position is never a second auction.

Duration and discounts — the rules
- Longer runs are priced pro-rata against the base rate, stated at checkout — no negotiation.
- The figure you see here is the figure the order is written at. A rate is never overwritten, so a campaign bought at an older price keeps it.
- Several conferences in one order take a discount off Featured, Spotlight and the Enhanced listing: 2 conferences 10% off · 3–4 conferences 15% off · 5 or more 20% off. Applied at checkout and shown as its own line on the invoice.
Not for sale — ever
- Organic ranking. Promotion never moves a listing in unpaid results.
- Removing or downranking another conference. No exceptions, at any price.
Prices are in US dollars, and the figure shown is the whole price — nothing is added at checkout.
Scarcity is the product. Spotlight and Featured are capped per field in the software: once a field’s slots are taken the order is refused rather than sold, because selling more of a slot than it is worth is how a promoted placement becomes worthless to the people who bought it.
