We decided to open up the advertising channel for companies to reach out to our tech-savvy audience and am glad to announce our first sponsor, Microsoft Startup Zone.

About Microsoft’s BizSpark Programme

Microsoft’s BizSpark Programme is designed to to help accelerate the success of early stage startups by providing key resources (like software, support etc).

The program is open to early stage startups as well; and under this programme, startups will get a free three-year license to Microsoft software and servers including Visual Studio, Windows Server and Microsoft SQL server. They will also get access to business and technical support from the network partners, and will be promoted on the Microsoft Startup Zone site.

Our earlier coverage of the programme:

-

We still have lot more inventory for advertisers and essentially, we are looking for technology companies (including startups) to reach out to the pluGGd.in audience – More details here.

If you are a startup and want to know the details of packages available, mail me (ashish at pluGGd dot in).

Please note – Early birds get a discount.

    The rates should be transparent.You should publish them here for benefit of all. Or is it that the talk of openness and collaboration is only a lip service and when it comes to action pluggd.in is juts like any other conventional company.

      How is advertising related to collaboration? Do not troll.
      And how will you benefit of the rates?

      You do not have the guts to reply via your real name (this is the 3rd time).
