Sponsors

If your company is interested in sponsoring Alestic.com, please contact Eric Hammond at eric@alestic.com.

Partial sponsorship positions are available starting at $250 per month with visibility at the top of all pages on Alestic.com (percentage of page views based on proportion of premier sponsorship contribution). Companies that qualify gain my eternal gratitude in addition to having their brands promoted to the highly targeted Alestic.com audience, consisting of readers who are actively using or interested in using cloud technologies with Amazon AWS/EC2.

I'm not looking to just sell ad space to the highest bidder, but rather am seeking long term partnerships with quality brands that I can support and promote. Companies are most likely to qualify if they have excellent products and services that relate closely to the subject matter of this site.

Many thanks to the supporting Alestic.com sponsors including:
