E-International Relations is the world’s leading source for International Relations scholarship and insight, reaching over 3 million readers annually via our web, email and social channels. We offer a cost effective way to advertise university degree courses (undergraduate or Master's), academic publications, educational resources – and any other product/initiative – to an engaged audience.
Over 50% of our readers are students who plan to undertake further study.
Approximately 70% of our readers are outside North America/Western Europe: a truly global reach.
We offer a bespoke alternative to standard click through/keyword web display advertising, which most people instinctively ignore (or block). Our adverts are placed in an integrated and tasteful manner alongside our other content.
Dozens of universities have advertised with us – including Cambridge, George Washington, Duke, Bath, Australian National University, Georgetown, Trinity, SOAS, San Francisco State, Tartu, Queen Mary, Birmingham, Cardiff, Newcastle, Otago, Melbourne, Leeds, National University of Singapore, Exeter and Oxford. Our clients have also included a range of academic publishers such as Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press, Pearson and Routledge – as well as a number of independent publishers. We have also hosted non academic clients such as NATO, a number of podcasts, and a range of NGOs.
Please direct all advertising enquiries to stephen.mcglinchey@uwe.ac.uk with the subject line/title ‘Advertising’. All prices are in British pounds sterling (GBP). We can accept payment via bank transfer, credit card, or PayPal.
BANNERS
Banners display to all readers of the E-International Relations website at the top of our homepage and directs users to your website of choice. Your link will also appear in our sponsored area. The multiple locations your advert appears, and the bespoke placements, ensure that it appears natively (rather than as an obvious click-type advert) and invites a high click through rate. Banners can be placed for one month, or multiple months running consecutively. When booking, please let us know your start and end date (e.g. 1 January–30 Feb).
Fee
Banners are available in two formats, based on prominence of placement:
Headline Banner: £500 GBP per 30 day cycle.
