Five ways to work with us
Every option below is a real mechanism on a live site, not a promise. We will tell you plainly what we cannot do.
Digital PR
Get cited where procurement teams and AI engines actually look.
Editorially-written coverage placed inside a comparison, a manufacturer profile, or a role landing page, so your system shows up where an analyst is actively researching and where answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude pull their citations from. This is an authority and citeability play built on real, indexed content, not a promised traffic number.

Editorial Sponsorship
Back a comparison, role category, or buying guide. Reach buyers at the decision point.
Sponsor an existing high-intent page type, a /compare/ page, a system-type category, or a buying guide. Our editorial team keeps full control of the analysis; the sponsorship is always clearly labelled, per our disclosure policy.
Pick a category: a comparison, a role page, or a buying guide.
Our editorial team researches and writes it to our normal standard.
The sponsorship is clearly labelled, never disguised as independent editorial.
Published, sitemapped, and open to the same AI crawlers as everything else.
Featured Manufacturer Profile
One page. Your entire lineup, mapped by data.
A dedicated manufacturer deep-dive built from our own structured spec database, mapping your full system range by range, speed, firepower, protection and public unit cost. Buyers and analysts get one authoritative reference page for your systems instead of hunting across scattered fact sheets and press kits.

Sponsored Content
A genuinely useful piece, written to our standard, clearly labelled as sponsored.
A standalone article on your platform, programme, or capability, held to the same numbers-first, no-fluff bar as our own reporting. Readers get something worth their time; you get a piece that reads as useful rather than an advertorial.
Brief us on the story: the programme, the data, the angle.
We report and write it in our voice, not a press-release rewrite.
You review for factual accuracy, not for tone or conclusions.
Published and marked "Sponsored" in the byline, no exceptions.
Advertising
Placement where analysts are actively comparing specs, not scrolling past.
Targeted placement across high-intent surfaces: system spec pages, head-to-head comparisons, role landing pages, and the Decision Advisor. There is no fixed rate card and we do not publish traffic numbers we cannot stand behind; every placement is scoped and quoted against your goal.
| Surface | Why buyers land there |
|---|---|
| System spec pages /systems/lockheed-martin/f-35a-lightning-ii/ | Final-decision spec lookup |
| Comparison pages /compare/ | Head-to-head shortlisting |
| Type / role pages /types/air-defense/ | "Which system for X" research |
| Decision Advisor /advisor/ | Mission-priority ranking |

Questions partners usually ask
What is Digital PR on WeaponSpecs?
Digital PR here means getting your system covered in genuinely useful, data-driven content placed across our indexed comparisons, manufacturer profiles, and role pages, so buyers and AI answer engines find and cite it. It is an authority and visibility play built on real content, not a guaranteed traffic number.
Does sponsorship affect your editorial independence?
No. WeaponSpecs is independent and self-funded; specs and comparisons are never paid placements, and any sponsored or commercial content is always clearly labelled, in line with our disclosure policy.
How is this content indexed by AI search engines?
Our robots.txt and llms.txt explicitly allow AI crawlers, and every page ships with structured data (Product, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, ItemList) so answer engines can parse and cite it directly.
What are your sourcing rules?
Public data only, drawn from manufacturer material, defense-ministry releases, and reputable reference publications. We never handle classified or export-controlled information, and figures that are only claimed by a state and cannot be independently verified are labelled as such.
How many systems and manufacturers does WeaponSpecs cover?
1017 systems across 183 manufacturers, spanning fighters, tanks, air defense, missiles, UAVs, helicopters, rifles, IFVs, artillery and naval platforms.
What does sponsorship or advertising cost?
There is no fixed rate card. Tell us your goal and budget on the form below and we will scope a quote per project.
Who is this for?
Defense primes and manufacturers, and the marketing or PR agencies working on their behalf, who want their systems in front of analysts, journalists and procurement researchers actively studying the field.
