How sponsorship works on the Ledger
- Always labelled. Sponsor boxes and Sponsored Features say Sponsored, every time.
- News stays independent. Sponsors do not edit or approve news stories, and news coverage is never for sale.
- Links follow search rules. Links to sponsors are marked sponsored, as search engines require.
- Local only. We accept sponsors that serve Metro Detroit residents.
- No promised numbers. We do not promise views, clicks or leads.
Why sponsor Detroit news
Ledger readers are Detroiters and people thinking about Detroit: homeowners in historic districts, buyers comparing Indian Village and Palmer Woods, neighbors following new construction, and fans of our 313 Legends. Stories link to the neighborhood and city guides readers use next, like the Boston-Edison and Corktown guides.
Home service pros can also sponsor a neighborhood page directly. See neighborhood sponsorship or every sponsorship option.
