You write it
You send the article. We check it against the publication’s guidelines, edit lightly if it needs it, and publish. One do-follow link, and a second link adds 25%.
We own the publications we place you in.
CST Advertising runs a portfolio of independent niche publications. Agencies and brands come to us for sponsored articles and contextual link placements — commissioned, edited and published by the same people who run the sites.

What we do
Most content placement is brokered. A request passes through two or three intermediaries before it reaches whoever actually runs the site, and nobody in the chain can promise what the publisher will accept.
We are the publisher. Every title in our portfolio is one we own and edit, so we can tell you on the same day whether a piece fits, what it costs, and when it goes live. If a topic is wrong for a title, we say so rather than take the order.
There is no one to chase. We are the publisher.

Editorial post
We write it
You give us the brief and the target. Our editors research and write the piece in the publication’s voice. You approve the draft before it goes live.
Link insertion
Into an existing article
A contextual link placed inside an article that is already published and indexed. Fastest option, and often the most natural.
