Advertise on DatenUS

Reach people looking up their own neighborhood. Pick a county, a whole state or the whole country, and pay one flat monthly price per placement.

Local targeting

Show your ad on one county's pages, on every page for a whole state, or across the whole country. A county ad also shows on the city and ZIP pages inside that county.

Flat monthly price

No cost per click and no bidding. Each placement has one set monthly price, billed automatically until you cancel. Cancel anytime.

Limited seats

Each placement on a county page has 10 county seats, 5 whole-state seats and 5 nationwide seats. When an area is full, it's sold out.

Clearly labeled

Every ad is marked Sponsored and kept separate from our data, so readers know what they're looking at and trust what they click.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?
Each placement has a flat monthly price that depends on the area: county $49, whole state $199, nationwide $799 for the top banner, for example. See the pricing table above. Sales tax is added where it applies.
How does billing work?
When you apply, you save a card with Stripe and nothing is charged. If we approve your ad, we charge your first month right away, and your subscription renews on the same day every month until you cancel.
How do I cancel?
Email [email protected] or use the Stripe customer portal linked in your Stripe receipts. Canceling stops future charges, and your ad keeps running until the end of the month you already paid for.
Do you charge per click?
No. You pay one flat price per placement per month, no matter how many people click.
Do you guarantee results?
No. Your ad rotates at random with up to 20 ads in the same spot. We do not guarantee impressions, clicks or results. Refunds follow the Advertiser Terms and are never based on performance.
Can I target just my county?
Yes. Pick County, then your state and county. Your ad shows on that county's page and the city and ZIP pages inside it.
What does sold out mean?
Each placement has a limited number of seats: 10 per county, 5 per state and 5 nationwide. When all seats in an area are taken, that placement is sold out there until someone cancels.
Do ads show on phones?
Yes. Every placement shows on phones. The sidebar rectangle (C) moves to the middle of the page on phones, and A and D use a separate mobile image so they look sharp.
Can I see how my ad is doing?
Yes. Impressions and clicks are available on request, by week and by device. We filter out bots, repeat views within 10 minutes and repeat clicks.
