What is being auctioned? Why?
Non intrusive ad space in my setup guides is being publicly auctioned. I work for the community full time and am not funded by the community or any company. Donations have not exceeded $50 in total this year and so I have to find a way to keep the guides sustainable and FREE for the average consumer. Selling ad space is one such trial.


Ad Format

  • Leaderboard style (728x90 pixels), static images (jpg, jpeg, gif, png), non annoying colors
  • Totally unaffected by adblock.
  • Ads may not misrepresent, lie, be inappropriate, be (or link to) NSFW content.
  • I reserve the right to reject ads for other reasons or remove ads even after they have been accepted.

  • There are 5 ad slots for sale. One slot will be placed after sections 2, 4 and 6 in all the guides listed at the bottom of the post.
  • I will randomise which ad is placed in which slot on each guide so each slot receives the same impressions.
  • The ads last at least 10 days starting from when they are put up. Traffic is expected to be 30,000 impressions per slot over the period.
  • This traffic is exceptionally targeted to the hardware subforum, and more specifically to those who have either bought or are looking to buy miners.


Auction Format

- Auction will run for approximately 8 days, to end at midnight London time / 3PM PDT / 6PM EDT on Sunday 24th August.
- Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be stated in BTC per slot. You must state the max number of slots you want.
- The notation "2 @ 0.5" means 2 slots for BTC 0.5 each. Not 2 slots for 0.5 BTC total.
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.
- Bidding starts at BTC 0.30.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by BTC 0.04.

I reserve the right to reject bids, even days after the bid is made. In particular, bids from people with less than 15 activity points are likely to be rejected. I recommend not getting into a bidding war with someone who has less than 15 activity points, as their bids might not be accepted, but your latest bids will still stand. If you need to know right away whether someone's bids will be accepted, PM me.

You must pay for your slots within 24 hours of receiving the payment address. Otherwise your slots may be sold to someone else. I will send you the payment information via forum PM from this account ("dogie", user ID 87869). You might receive false payment information from scammers pretending to be me. They might even have somewhat similar usernames. Be careful.

tldr for getting started:

  • 5 slots being sold
  • Bid using slots @ price each notation (3 @ 0.50 means 3 slots @ BTC 0.50 each)

Additional notes for this round:
  • Minimum bid increased to 0.3 due to drastically increased traffic of rounds 5 and 6.
  • Bid increment increased to 0.04.
  • Impressions per slot have increased 20% to 30,000+ per slot. Please bid appropriately.

I'm going to push the end time by 24 hours so we end on Monday rather than a weekend. I'll try and time rounds in the future to never end on a weekend as most people are AFK on weekends. Round 6 will end at midnight London time / 3PM PDT / 6PM EDT on Monday 25th August. Ps I'm more than happy to have empty slots, just need to give everyone a fair chance as its once every 10 days now.

Will empty slots be distributed evenly to those who won bidding? If there are empty slots will they be auctioned for best offer?

Middle ground between being distributed between everyone else and the round ending a bit earlier to compensate for the 66% increased traffic. Ie if only one slot was filled, the round wouldn't run for 10 days, but at the same time it would still overly benefit the person with the one slot.
