General Online Advertising Information
All online advertising is clearly marked as an advertisement and is separated from content. Advertisers receive no advance knowledge of editorial content.
Advertising is reserved on a first-come-first-serve basis.
Banner advertising will not be sold or purchased based on editorial adjacency. However, ads are delivered randomly throughout the site and constantly change; therefore, the adjacency of an advertisement to editorial mention of product or category can occur inadvertently and infrequently.
All ads are subject to editorial and publisher approval.
For additional online advertising information in the Green Journal (ROS Banners, Interstitials, eTOCs), including Lippincott Williams & Wilkins' complete online ad policy, please see the Obstetrics & Gynecology media kit.
