Question 1

What is Own the Map?

Accepted Answer

Own the Map is an interactive globe advertising marketplace. Businesses bid to own an advertising placement over a country, state or city, and the highest bidders rank first on that territory.

How does bidding work?

Accepted Answer

Every location has a minimum bid to be listed. Advertisers are ranked by how much they pay — bid more than a competitor to move above them and claim a higher position on the globe.
