Following requests from our newsletter subscribers we've moved it from Friday to Monday as many people said they didn't have time on a Friday to catch up with NEOM news. The next publishing date will be Monday 28th March 2022.
We've been looking at placing small, unobtrusive adverts in some places on the site, expecially the most popular page NEOM Management Team. This page alone gets most of the inbound search queries and it's obvious people are searching for ways to make contact with NEOM executives.
Current thinking is to place adverts on the NEOM Management Team page, the main News category and the Newsletter. All spaces will be available for sponsorship shortly with discounts for companies with active Premium listings.
Let us know if you would like to discuss a special promotion.
