This page is the hub that points you to the right option and how to start.

- Brands can reach our news and explainer audience through advertising, sponsored content, press releases and partnerships.
- Writers and experts can pitch through our write-for-us contributor programme.

- Everything commercial is labelled; read how we make money and our advertising disclosure.
- To start, use the contact page or email partners@pqrnews.com.
Who works with PQR News
PQR News is read by people who want the news and then the context behind it. That audience is valuable to two very different groups. The first is brands, agencies and organisations that want to put a product, service, announcement or point of view in front of an engaged, curious readership. The second is writers, analysts and subject-matter experts who want a credible place to publish an explainer they know readers will search for. This hub exists so both groups can find the right route quickly instead of guessing.
Ways brands can work with us
If you represent a company or campaign, there are four clearly labelled commercial routes:
- Advertising — display placements and packages that reach our readers across the site. Formats and availability vary; we share a media kit on request rather than quoting fictional numbers.
- Sponsored content — a branded article that tells your story at length, published with a visible sponsored label.
- Press releases — a company-supplied announcement, reviewed, labelled and published to our audience.
- Partnerships — longer-term arrangements that combine several of the above under one agreement.
Ways writers can work with us
If you want to contribute rather than advertise, our write-for-us programme is the place to start. We look for clear, accurate explainers and reported pieces that help readers understand a topic — not thinly veiled promotion. Contributors get a byline and a genuine audience; in return we ask for original, well-sourced work that meets our editorial standards. We are explicit about one thing: we do not accept articles written purely to place a link, and we do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links inside editorial.
How to choose the right route
- You have news to announce — a launch, a milestone, a hire — start with a press release.
- You want to tell a longer brand story — choose sponsored content.
- You want visibility across the site — look at advertising.
- You want ongoing collaboration — talk to us about a partnership.
- You have expertise to share — pitch through write-for-us.
- You hope to be covered on merit — read get featured.
Our commitment to readers
Reader trust is the only asset a news and explainer site really has, so we protect it deliberately. Paid and sponsored placements are always labelled. Independent reporting is decided by our newsroom and is not for sale at any price. Commercial relationships never buy favourable coverage, and a brand paying for advertising receives no say over how our journalists write about it. If we cannot run something honestly and with a clear label, we decline it.
What we will not do
- Publish paid placements without a visible label.
- Sell undisclosed or disguised links inside editorial articles.
- Let advertisers approve, edit or veto independent coverage.
- Run misleading claims, fabricated endorsements or invented statistics.
About PQR News
PQR News is an independent news and explainer publication with a named editorial team and a plain reader-first mission: cover the day’s developments, then explain what they mean. Editorial decisions are made by our newsroom and are never sold. You can read who we are on our about page and reach the team through our contact page or at partners@pqrnews.com. Every commercial placement described on this page is clearly labelled and kept separate from independent reporting, in line with the FTC endorsement guidelines.
Frequently asked questions
How do I start working with PQR News?
Pick the route that matches your goal above, then contact us through the contact page or at partners@pqrnews.com with a short summary. We will point you to the right team.
Do you separate advertising from editorial?
Yes. Commercial placements are labelled and handled by a different process from our independent reporting, which our newsroom controls.
Can I both advertise and contribute an article?
Those are separate programmes. Advertising and sponsored content are commercial and labelled; a contributor article goes through editorial review on its own merits.
Do you sell links?
No. We do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links. Sponsored placements carry their own labelling and follow our disclosure policy.
How much does it cost to work with you?
It depends entirely on the route and scope. Tell us what you have in mind and we will share current rates and a media kit.
Can you guarantee coverage?
We guarantee delivery of the paid placement you book. Independent editorial coverage is never guaranteed or sold — see get featured.
Where can I read your policies?
See how we make money and our advertising disclosure for the full picture.
How do I advertise or partner with PQR News?
Tell us your goal via our contact page and we will recommend the right mix of advertising, sponsored content, a partnership or a feature, with current options and rates.
Do you offer news sponsored content and advertising?
Yes — both, always clearly disclosed and kept separate from our independent editorial.
