You can also combine placements, for example a YouTube midroll together with a newsletter issue. Mention it in your message and I will check the dates for both.

How it works

  1. Get in touch

    Send me a short note about your product and which placement you are interested in.

  2. Pick a date

    I check the calendar and reserve the Tuesday or the video slot that works best for you.

  3. Send your material

    For an ad, send one or two sentences and a link. For an article or a video, send a short brief and access to the product. You approve the final version.

  4. Go live

    Your placement goes out on the agreed date, and I send you a short report with the numbers afterwards.

Common questions

These are the questions sponsors usually ask me before booking a slot.

  • How far in advance should I book?

    I suggest reaching out at least two to three weeks in advance. Each Tuesday only has two sponsor spots, so the earlier you get in touch, the more dates you can choose from.

  • Who reads the newsletter?

    The newsletter is read by .NET developers of all levels, from juniors in their first job to senior engineers and architects. Most of them build backend and full-stack applications with ASP.NET Core, EF Core, and the cloud, and they signed up because they want to get better at their work.

  • What kind of products perform best?

    Developer tools, libraries, SaaS platforms, hosting, and developer courses usually do well. In general, if your product solves a real problem that .NET developers run into, my readers will be interested in it.

  • Do you write the ad copy?

    You send me the first draft. I then adjust the wording so it reads naturally inside the newsletter, because ads that match the tone of the email tend to get more clicks. You approve the final version before it goes out.

  • What reporting do I get?

    After each issue, I send you a report with the open rate, the number of clicks, and the impressions, so you can see exactly how your sponsorship performed.

  • Can you guarantee a number of clicks?

    No, and I would be careful with anyone who does. The number of clicks depends a lot on the product and the ad copy. What I can promise is that your ad reaches an engaged .NET audience, shares the issue with at most one other sponsor, and that I help you shape the copy so it fits the newsletter.

  • How many sponsors per issue?

    There are at most two sponsors in each issue. I keep the number small so that readers actually notice and read your ad, instead of scrolling past a wall of promotions.

  • Can I cancel or reschedule?

    Once a Tuesday is reserved, it can't be cancelled or moved. I keep it this way so the calendar stays reliable for every sponsor.

  • Does my sponsorship stay online?

    Yes. Every newsletter issue and blog article stays on the website, so your link keeps sending readers to your product long after the email goes out.

  • What's included in a Dedicated Article?

    I write a full tutorial-style blog post about your .NET tool, with real code samples, benchmarks where they make sense, and my honest opinion as a developer. It is written the same way as the rest of my articles. You review the draft for technical accuracy, and once it is live, the article is featured in the Tuesday newsletter, shared on my LinkedIn, and stays on the site permanently.

  • How does a YouTube midroll work?

    A midroll is a 30 to 45 second segment about your product inside one of my regular .NET videos. I record it myself and show your product on screen, and your link goes in the video description. You review the segment before the video is published.

  • What's included in a Dedicated Video?

    I make a full video about your product for my YouTube channel, with real .NET code, a working demo, and my honest opinion as a developer. It is made the same way as the rest of my videos. You review the video before it goes live, and your link goes in the video description.
