We understand that gaming companies have many options at their disposal when it comes to advertising current and upcoming releases. We also understand that everyone is looking for the most bang for their buck. That is why we do not include Google Adsense, pay per click or pay per impression advertising anywhere on our website; you are looking for a specific audience and we would never look to “water down” your message by including anything that is not directly targeted to the hobby public. With that in mind, we also do not place our advertisers’ campaigns into a “hodge podge” rotation where they intermix with other advertisers – your ad space is dedicated to your company and your company alone! We will include multiple gaming titles (from your company) into a rotation, as described below, at your request.
We strive to do more than simply post your ad and provide each company with a custom tailored campaign strategy based upon their needs!

Two week ad space can be purchased on a one time trial basis at 60% of the monthly rate.
Up to two companies can also be included as sponsors on each of TGG’s biweekly podcasts for a flat fee of $30 US.
To provide even more value for your marketing dollars you may submit up to three products to be featured in your ad block on a rotating page refresh basis – additional ads may be added to the rotation for a nominal fee. We’ll even allow you to change your current ad campaign twice per month (or once if a two week trial period) at no additional cost.
Please keep in mind that advertisers do not have any editorial control over content posted here on TGG nor do they receive preferential treatment as far as reviews or sneak previews are concerned; we will strive to provide honest and accurate views regarding every game release we cover.
If you have any questions regarding advertising on TGG, please contact Jeff and don’t forget to ask about multiple month discounting!
Are those rates per month, per quarter, or what?
And are you able to share traffic stats?
These are the monthly rates and I can certainly share both raw and Google numbers for prospective advertisers.
