Sponsors of Read the Docs

Running Read the Docs isn’t free, and the site wouldn’t be where it is today without generous support of our sponsors. Below is a list of all the folks who have helped the site financially, in order of the date they first started supporting us.

Current sponsors

  • Twilio - Twilio, a user of Read the Docs, is organizing Signal, a developer conference for communications, held May 19-20th.
  • Rackspace - They cover all of our hosting expenses every month. This is a pretty large sum of money, and we are really grateful to have them as a sponsor.
  • You? (Email us at hello@readthedocs.com for more info)

Sponsorship Information

As part of increasing sustainability, Read the Docs is testing out several spots for promoting sponsors on documentation pages. We are only seeking sponsors that are users of the service or are at least very familiar with the service.

Doc Page Promotion

This promotion is our best offering, it will display on the bottom of the navigation menu on all built documentation. This space includes a 120x90 image and supporting ad text on every documentation page using the Read the Docs theme, which is over 10,000,000 pageviews every month.

User experience on documentation pages is paramount, and any sponsored ads are strictly image and text – no dynamic components, animations, or tracking pixels are allowed. This space will not interfere with the navigation menu, and will only show if the menu is short enough, or the reader has scrolled down on the page past the end of the menu. This promotion is not displayed for users with gold status, or users that have donated in the past.

Limited to 1 company per month.
