Apple Mac HQ

You can’t turn on the TV these days without hearing about the global economic crisis or the latest companies asking the government for bailout money. When most people hear about the amount of money these companies are asking for, they naturally ask what the government is going to do for them. Since this is a Mac website, I’m going to play the role of the government and present my stimulus package to indie developers. Free ad space.

I’m going to give away at least one, maybe two, ad spaces on the Apple Mac HQ website to Mac indie developers. The ads will run for one month and will cost absolutely nothing. The space will be just below the RSS and Twitter icons in the right side bar.

To enter, just use the contact form (link at top of the page) and send me a few paragraphs about your product and why I should choose you. If I have any questions, I’ll follow up with you via the email address you used when you submitted the contact form. The deadline for entry is December 12th. I’ll choose a winner over that weekend and will launch the ad(s) on December 16th, where they will run until January 16th. The ad needs to be a 125 x 125 pixel image (jpg or png). In addition to the ad space, I’ll do a brief announcement of the winner(s) with a short blog post. I’m limiting this offer to Mac and iPhone developers. No web applications, hardware, or anything else.

What’s the catch? Nothing. The only thing I ask of the winner(s) is that they check their referral logs or analytics software at the end of the ad period and let me know how many referrals they received. If you want to give away a few licenses, I’ll be glad to do a giveaway of some kind. In return, I’ll do a full post/review of the application.

If you’re not a Mac or iPhone developer, please pass along this post to any developers you might think are interested. Questions? Ask in the comments below.
