Where it shows

Eligible pages

Homepage, game hubs for Valorant, League of Legends, Counter-Strike 2, Deadlock, Destiny 2 and Marvel Rivals, tools, guides, FAQ and About. Blog posts carry blog ads instead.

Where it never shows

Never inside or on top of stats, tables, lookup tools or leaderboards, and never on the Overwatch 2 hub, legal pages, contact, checkout or the advertiser dashboard. Every ad is labelled “Advertisement” or “Sponsored”.

Share of voice

The Spotlight Box rotates between advertisers. Your share of voice sets how often yours is the one shown.

Site ads or blog ads: what is the difference?

RankSurge sells two kinds of placement. Site ads run around our stats tools, game hubs and info pages. Blog ads run inside our blog posts: guides, patch breakdowns and news. Featured Partners show on both.

Blog ads cost more because there are fewer spots per page, they sit inside the content people came to read, and they appear on every new post we publish while you are subscribed. All prices are 50% off during the launch promo. Buying both? You will still show at most once per page, so readers never see the same brand twice.
