For media owners & advertising providers
Reach businesses
before the budget is spent.
AdvertisingInCanada.com is being built around people actively comparing channels, costs and markets. Provider participation is designed to put useful commercial information in front of those buyers without turning the site into another backlink directory.

Who should participate
Advertising inventory
and services only.
The new site is intentionally narrow. We want providers that help businesses plan, buy or execute advertising.
Advertising agencies
Paid search, social, programmatic, media buying, campaign strategy and performance services.
Multicultural media
Language and community-focused publications, radio, digital properties and specialist media buyers.
Creators & sponsorship
Creator networks, event properties, sports, associations, community sponsorship and partnership specialists.
Direct & production
Direct mail, printing, ad production, creative, video, audio and campaign production services.
Generic business listings
SEO-only submissions, unrelated companies and listings created mainly for a backlink are not part of the new platform.
What makes this different
We want the buyer
before the sales call.
A useful provider marketplace starts with the advertiser’s research journey, not a wall of company logos.
Buyer researches the market
They start with Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary or another market.
Buyer compares channels
They decide whether search, social, outdoor, radio, print or another medium fits the job.
Buyer understands cost structure
They learn what is being priced and what changes the quote.
Provider enters at the right moment
The commercial listing appears when the buyer is ready to investigate inventory or request rates.
Transparency standard
Commercial visibility
without hiding the relationship.
Paid exposure can work well if the user can immediately tell what is sponsored and what is independent planning information.
SponsoredPaid placements are labelled
No disguised ranking or unsupported “best” claims.
IndependentCost guides stay separate
Provider payment does not change independent planning information.
QualifiedCommercial outbound links are treated appropriately
Sponsored relationships use sponsored or nofollow link treatment where appropriate.
ControlledBuyers choose whether to make contact
Quote requests should explain what information is shared and with whom.
Provider interest form
Tell us what you sell.
Use this launch form to structure your provider details. V1 does not submit to a backend yet, so the form creates a clean summary you can copy into an email or use when we wire provider onboarding.

What providers can expect
Measure commercial
visibility like a product.
As the marketplace matures, paid participants should be able to see what their placement is producing rather than buying vague exposure.

Launch roadmap
Prove demand before adding complexity.
We do not need accounts, auctions or a full marketplace backend on day one. The first goal is to attract buyer traffic, collect provider interest and learn which market/category combinations create real enquiries.

Bring useful advertising inventory to buyers who are already researching.
Start with a structured provider profile. Paid visibility can be added only where the market and category make sense.
