Potential Advertisers: We get you.

Like you, we have a passion to succeed. We have a passion for gaming like you do, and we share a passion of those who support the industry because, to an extent, we too are those supporters. From a business standpoint, we want our product–this web page–to be exposed as much as possible to as many as possible.

Getting the word out there about your product is important. It can be tough in an environment where blogs are quickly becoming the norm, and information is being shared among multiple sources. We understand that this is an age where no one source is anyone’s primary source for information. That’s why we, like you, strive to stand out among the crowd.

• TSSZ News was the first gaming news organization to start podcasting, almost from the site’s initial inception in 1999–back when no one knew what an iPod or podcasting was. We are aggressively exploring more ways to innovate today as Web technology grows more complex, and hope to execute these strategies this coming May with our SonicStream service, still in development.
• TSSZ News was one of the first gaming news organizations to aggressively cover all things Sonic. When breaking news happens in the Sonic community and in the industry, we are there with all angles covered. We have reaffirmed our commitment to breaking news with the most experienced team of reporters, commentators, and reviewers in the community. Together, they offer facts, perspective, balance and context to a rapidly expanding and evolving industry–along with all the changes and controversies surrounding it.
• TSSZ News now reviews the games of today and yesterday with depth and detail. From concept to completion, no game is different. Our reviews offer a different take of what’s on the shelves, beyond bland scores and categories.
• TSSZ News has unique brand recognition. When you mention TSSZ to gamers, they know you’re talking about a news area devoted to quality, accuracy, and dependability. We are known because we don’t hide in a cubicle all day; we interact and talk to our audience, and know what they want.

Our track record is commendable. Whether you’re just starting out promoting a fan game, or a company trying to reach a broader audience, our commitment to quality ensures commendable results for you.

What can we offer?

• Reasonable rates, maximum potential. As we’re starting out, we understand you may be doing the same. Our advertising rates are flexible and based on a calculation of how often your banner ad will be seen in our rotation. You can buy as much or as little blocks as you want for as long as you need. The more blocks you buy, the more often your ad runs. So, if you bought 200 ad blocks for a week, and there were 1,000 blocks total in the rotation for that week, your ad is seen 20 percent of the time at the top of our page! And the more visitors we have, the more your ad is exposed. E-Mail us and we’ll give you complete details on how the calculation works–and how it can work for you.
• Young, intelligent, global audience. The majority of our readers have been lifelong gamers and remember the “good old days” of 8 and 16 bits. That means they are mostly in their late teens and twenties in age, male and female, and span the globe. Not only are they gamers, they are into the tech industry in general, as well as animation, television, and politics.
• Design services. We can create a 468×60 banner ad tailored to your needs for a small additional fee. You retain the rights to the image, even if you choose to discontinue selling ad space on our site.
