ATLANTA KOREATOWNYour guide to Korean Atlanta

Ad Policies

What we allow, what we don’t, how we review, and how billing works.

Content Guidelines

Atlanta Koreatown is read by families. Creatives that don’t fit the magazine’s tone or our community standards are rejected on review — we’ll help you revise, or refund any prepayment for that placement.

Allowed

Korean restaurants, cafes, bakeries
Korean and Asian groceries / specialty retail
Local services: clinics, dental, optometry, chiropractic, law, accounting, real estate
Recruiting / staffing and employers hiring locally
Educational services: Korean-language schools, tutoring, music / art classes
Cultural events: concerts, festivals, gallery exhibitions, churches (events only, not proselytizing creatives)
Community-relevant brands: Korean media, beauty, fashion, electronics

Not Allowed (creative will be rejected)

Alcohol — beer, wine, soju, makgeolli, cocktails, drinking culture, ABV mentions, "drink pairings"
Tobacco — cigarettes, cigars, vapes / e-cigarettes, hookah, chewing tobacco
Cannabis / marijuana / CBD-as-recreational
Gambling, sports betting, lottery promotion
Adult content, dating apps targeting affairs, escort services
Get-rich-quick schemes, MLM recruiting, crypto airdrops
Predatory financial products (payday loans, debt-buying)
Political campaigns and electoral advocacy (talk to us separately — different terms apply)
Anything that misrepresents itself as editorial content, looks like a fake notification, or hides the brand identity

Image Guidelines

Design service: Banner design is included with every plan — desktop + mobile responsive. You can supply your own artwork or let us design it.
File formats: JPG, PNG, WebP, or SVG. No auto-play video.
Resolution: At least 2× the rendered size on retina displays. Sharp text, no compression artifacts.
Aspect ratio: Matched to the placement (see the ad kit for sizes per position).
Branding: Brand name or logo clearly visible. No fake UI chrome (false buttons, fake notifications).
Color tone: Recommended: cream/beige/dark green/white palette to match the site. Highly saturated banners read as noise.

How it works

1Request a quote for the placements you want (by position and duration).
2We prepare your banner — design included — and confirm placements, dates, sites and price.
3You approve the quote and the creative.
4An editor reviews the final creative against these guidelines — usually within a business day.
5Approved → your placement goes live and starts collecting impressions.

Billing & Cancellation

Rejected creative: If a creative can’t be approved, we work with you to fix it — or refund the prepayment for that placement.
Cancellation: Let us know. The placement runs to the end of the paid term; we don’t prorate mid-term by default.
Payment: Invoiced up front for the agreed term. Receipts provided.
Site outage: If your placement is unavailable for >24h due to our infrastructure, we credit the affected days toward your next run.
