Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as public relations?
No. Earned PR depends on editors choosing to cover a story. This channel is paid, and placements are labelled as sponsored.
Is sponsored content disclosed?
Yes. Paid editorial placements are labelled according to the publication’s and the market’s rules.
How does it differ from native advertising?
Native is the ad format. Here native units are one way of distributing a longer piece of content.
