Advertising formats

We offer a focused set of advertising formats across our web portal and social platforms. All placements are reviewed for editorial fit before confirmation.

Editorial principles

All advertising on Kochi.co is subject to editorial review. We accept content that is relevant to Kochi, accurate, and appropriate for a civic audience. We decline content that conflicts with our voice or editorial standards.

Clearly labelled
All sponsored content is labelled as such. We do not publish advertising that is indistinguishable from editorial.
Kochi-relevant
We only carry advertising that is materially relevant to Kochi residents, visitors, or the diaspora.
No political advertising
We do not carry political party advertising, electoral campaign content, or partisan advocacy.
Editorial independence
Advertising relationships do not influence our editorial aggregation. Content is selected on merit, not commercial affiliation.
