Advertising at Detectorist World

Reach the metal detecting community

Promote your business, brand, product, event, club or service to an audience with a genuine interest in metal detecting, historical finds and the wider detecting hobby.

Detectorist World is a growing resource created for detectorists at every stage, from complete beginners choosing their first detector to experienced hobbyists researching equipment, permissions, finds and places to detect.

Built around the hobby

Advertising that feels relevant, not intrusive

Detectorist World is being developed as a comprehensive online resource for the metal detecting community. The website includes beginner guides, detector information, equipment advice, club and supplier directories, research resources, legal guidance, finds information and practical help.

This creates advertising opportunities across a wide range of highly relevant pages. Rather than placing unrelated advertisements in front of visitors, our aim is to connect detectorists with businesses, organisations and events that genuinely serve the hobby.

Campaigns can be created for individual products, local services, national brands, detecting rallies, specialist websites, clubs, groups and long-term commercial partners.

Our approach

Protecting the trust of our readers

Relevant advertising helps fund the continued development of Detectorist World, but it should not undermine the usefulness or honesty of the website.

Every proposed advertiser and campaign is reviewed before acceptance.

  • Clear identification Paid, sponsored and promotional content will be identified where appropriate.
  • Relevant to the audience Advertising must have a genuine connection to metal detecting, history, outdoor hobbies or a closely related subject.
  • No misleading claims We reserve the right to reject exaggerated, unsubstantiated or potentially misleading promotional material.
  • Editorial independence Payment for advertising does not guarantee a positive editorial review, recommendation or ranking.
  • A good experience for visitors Placements should support the website rather than overwhelm its content or make pages difficult to use.
