rules
advertising.wtf is a public leaderboard. You pay to stand above everyone else. Rank is the total you have paid, nothing else.
how ranking works
- There are two boards. Ads is ranked by money and sits on top. Organic is ranked by wtf reactions and sits below, like in real life.
- Listing in organic is free. Three free listings per day per person. One wtf reaction per person per listing per day.
- Paying moves you to the ads board. Bids are whole US dollars, $2 minimum.
- Your rank is your total. Paying less than #1 still puts you on the board wherever that total lands.
- Equal totals keep the order they were paid in: the older payment keeps the higher rank.
- To raise a listing, enter the same URL or @handle with a higher total. You only pay the difference.
- A completed payment is what claims the rank. Bids are not refunded when someone outbids you.
what you can list
- A product website, or an X @handle.
- No chat or invite links: Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Signal and friends. Products and profiles only.
- No sexual content, no scams, no malware.
- Query parameters are stripped. Affiliate, referral and tracking URLs will not survive.
- No link shorteners. Use the real URL.
- Listings that break these rules get removed. The money does not come back. Read the name of the site again.
after you pay
- Your listing is public. Clicks go straight to your URL.
- The title and description shown on the board are read from your page’s own meta tags.
