Advertise with the IIJ

Reach 3,500+ freelance journalists with your event, publication, opportunity, or other resource. IIJ offers both free and paid options:

    • Place an ad in the IIJ newsletter ($60 for a one-paragraph newsletter ad, to run three times)

    • Send a dedicated e-blast to IIJ members through our newsletter

    • Advertise at or sponsor the IIJ annual conference

    • Sponsor a webinar

    • Suggest your event for our calendar

    • Suggest your call for pitches, job listing, award competition, or other opportunity for our newsletter

    • Send an e-blast to IIJ members: Get your message to IIJ members through electronic press releases

  • Messages must be simple text (color, style, links, etc are ok — no HTML code). While there is not a word limit, e-blasts of 600 words or less will be more effective. You may include one or two photos or graphics. IIJ staff will not format or edit e-blasts — they must be formatted for email before sending to us. Content should be sent in the body of an email or as a Word or Google Doc to info@theiij.com at least three business days prior to the desired mailing date.

    • $500 For-profit businesses and government

    • $300 Large nonprofits and universities

    • $100 Small nonprofits or job posting, award, fellowship, or workshop announcement

    Please note: the IIJ cannot schedule your e-blast until the invoice is paid in full. We cannot guarantee your e-blast will go out on your desired date (scheduling is first-come, first-served), but will make every effort to honor your request. Notice of at least three business days is requested. Questions? Contact info@theiij.com
