Brands as Authors

Accreditation. Exposure. Validation.

In Hacker Noon 2.0, there will be a clear distinction between Individual posts and Brand posts. Individuals can publish for free, and brands will pay to publish on Hacker Noon.

Brand-as-author is marketing accreditation in its purest form. We understand that so much of the content exists because quality companies allocate funds to the development of their stories.

To accredit a brand as an author, there is a fee. But if you want your content published with Hacker Noon without paying, please author your content by a human tech leader and submit the story to Hacker Noon for publishing consideration!

All brand-as-author posts are subject to standard Hacker Noon editorial review.

A better Hacker Noon ahead
