Traffic Information

World Architecture Community’s main differentiator from other architecture portals and websites offering similar services is the geographical distribution of its visitors. 

Most of our visitors during 2023 came from India (18,9%) and the USA (17,6%), followed by the UK (10%). China ranked fourth on our visitors' list. As much as 45.5% of our visitors were from Asia, while the Western World accounted for 46.5% of the total visitors (North America at 21.6%, Europe at 22.3%, and ANZ at 2.6%). The remaining 53.2% of our visitors were a result of WAC's intentional focus on countries that are less covered by mainstream Western media and other platforms.

     
 


20% of WAC’s traffic is direct (www.worldarchitacture.org), 65% is organic (google.com), meaning generated from architecture-related keywords, and 15% is from social media (Twitter, Instagram etc...)

Other Important Information

Payments are made in full upon receipt of the proforma invoice, either by bank transfer or secure credit card payment.

World Architecture Community reserves the right to remove any advertisement that does not abide by the World Architecture Community’s WA Member Agreement1, in particular:

the content of the advertisement shall not be defamatory, libellous, threatening, pornographic or obscene, harmful to minors, in violation of child pornography or child sexual exploitation laws, and more generally, the content shall not violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation.

The announcer has the ultimate responsibility for the content of the advertisement or sponsored content.

World Architecture Community also offers country/countries specific advertisement. However, sponsored content is exclusively offered globally. Pricing per country for advertisement is calculated based on 1/8th of the applicable price (i.e., 2 countries for 2/8th of the applicable price, and so on). We also want to mention here that the IP number filtering for defining which countries advertisements should be visible in is less and less reliable nowadays (among other reasons, the use of VPN in many countries); therefore World Architecture Community may not guarantee that all visitors from the defined country will see your advertisement.
