The Sponsored Site Plan lets you access all of GitBook's top features at no cost while displaying a small, relevant ad in the corner of your documentation site. Each view generates revenue for you, turning your documentation into a source of income!
To get started with the Sponsored Site Plan, follow these steps:
Create a docs site: Begin by setting up your site. Head to the Published Documentation section to learn more.
Submit Your Request: After creating your site, you’ll be able to add apply for the Ads and Sponsorship feature in your site’s settings.
After your application is submitted, here's what you can expect:
Initial Setup Period: You have 7 days to prepare your site before you can submit it for ad review. During this time, you can add content and customize your site as needed. Your site will be in a pending / non-submittable status until the 7-day period ends. This period of 7 days cannot be skipped.
Transition to Submittable Status: After 7 days, your site status will change to pending / submittable. You can then submit your site for ad review.
Review Process: Your site will be reviewed, and you can expect an estimated review time of up to 7 days. Please note that this timeline may be different based on processing delays.
Final Status Update: After the review, we’ll update your site’s status. Your site will either be marked as live or rejected, depending on the review outcome. If approved, ads will be added to your site!
Once your site is live, here’s how the Sponsored Site Plan operates:
Earning Potential: Every time someone views your documentation, a small, relevant ad will be displayed in the bottom corner of each page. You earn money from these views, which you can use to support ongoing development efforts.
Ethical Advertising: At GitBook, we prioritize ethical advertising. Ads displayed on your site will not track or retarget your users, ensuring a respectful experience for your audience.
Visibility of Content: Your content remains the focus. Only one small ad will appear on each page, ensuring that your documentation is always front and center.
