TL;DR · How this works

Order at checkout.
We do the rest.

Every placement on this page runs the same way. Rates are fixed. Payment and placement details are collected together at checkout, so there is no rate negotiation, no invoice to wait for, and no work started on a promise to pay. Single placements go straight to checkout. Anything that needs scoping first goes through the inquiry form at the bottom of this page.

Inquiry form
What the order form asks for
  • Advertiser or brand name, contact name, and email
  • Product category
  • Your target URL, and an optional suggested anchor or phrase
  • Link placements: one or two sentences on why the resource is useful to the reader
  • Guest-written post: a view-only link to your article
  • Stokeshire-written post: what the article should help the reader decide, product facts with source links, and the tracking number of the product you shipped to us
  • Two acknowledgments: paid links are marked rel="sponsored", and Stokeshire keeps editorial control
01
Choose

Pick a placement from the rate card. Rates are the same for everyone, first order or fiftieth. If you are unsure which fits, the inquiry form is the place to ask, not email.

02
Order

Checkout takes payment by card or PayPal and collects the placement details in the same step. The order confirmation is your invoice and receipt. Placement details sent by email are not accepted.

03
Review

Our editorial team reviews every order within two business days. Links go where they serve the reader. If a request does not pass, you get one round of revisions, or a refund before production.

04
Live

Standard turnaround is 7 to 10 business days from payment. You receive a confirmation email with the live URL. Every paid placement carries a disclosure. One URL update within 90 days is included.

Payment before placement. No exceptions.
Editorial decisions are final.
Every paid link is rel="sponsored" and disclosed.
Details go on the order form, not in email.
Why the audience matters

Not pet owners.
Intentional families.

Stokeshire families are not impulse buyers. The average visitor researches breeds for three to six months before contacting a breeder. They compare health testing standards, genetic screening protocols, and training philosophies, not price. By the time they reach us, they have disqualified the alternatives.

That research orientation carries into how they engage with product recommendations. A family who trusted Stokeshire's genetics guidance trusts our grooming recommendations. A family who enrolled in Doodle School at $5,600 is not price-sensitive about a collar.

Your brand sits inside that trust structure, not next to it.

Audience profile

Who is reading
your placement.

01
Affluent family households

Ages 25 to 54, dual income or established single income, homeowners. Top affinity signals: home improvement, travel, premium cooking, family shopping. $4,000 to $15,000 spent on the puppy alone.

02
Active researchers, not browsers

6.8 actions per session on average. 1m 25s engagement time. More than 60% engage deeply with content. These are not passive impressions. They are families making a multi-thousand-dollar decision.

03
Spanish-speaking reach

Bilingual support in English and Spanish. Mexico is an emerging growth market, with 1,552 high-intent sessions in the most recent reporting period. Few premium doodle programs have a real Spanish-language presence.

04
43% mobile · 20% desktop

Affiliate links and product CTAs are opened on phones at a rate that rewards mobile-ready product pages. iOS is 57% of mobile traffic. Families research while commuting, comparing breeds, and sitting with the dog they already have.

Traffic quality

Where the
audience comes from.

The dominant path is organic search, then direct, then conversion. Families find Stokeshire by searching for breed information, land on an authoritative guide, return directly when they are ready to act, and convert. There is no significant ad spend behind this traffic. It is earned.

That means affiliate links and product placements are seen by people who chose to be on the page. Not retargeted. Not purchased. Chosen.

Three partnership paths

How we
work together.

Three structures, built for different relationships, budgets, and goals. Every placement is reviewed for relevance before it is confirmed. We do not take every partner.

What we do not take
  • Other breeding programs or puppy sellers
  • Anchor-text-directed link insertions without editorial review
  • Do-follow paid links, exact-match anchors, or supplied sentences
  • Products that conflict with our health or safety standards
  • Retroactive edits to existing content
  • Low-quality or deceptive products of any category
Affiliate · Product
Brand and Affiliate Partnerships

Your product placed inside the Stokeshire content ecosystem: breed guides, training pages, the featured setup page, and buyer follow-up emails. Built for brands whose products Stokeshire families are already buying, or should be.

  • Link insertion in existing high-traffic content
  • Product feature in breed or training guides
  • Go-home kit inclusion with QR card
  • Email mention in the buyer follow-up sequence
  • Preferred Partner Badge, an annual program

Content and Social Integration

Instagram features, Reels, sponsored posts, and dedicated newsletter mentions. Built for brands that want direct audience exposure, not just a link in an article. Stokeshire's social content is editorial storytelling, not product photography drops.

  • Instagram post or Reel feature
  • Instagram Story with link
  • Stokeshire-written or guest-written sponsored post

  • 5 to 9 placements: 10% off standard rates
  • 10 to 19 placements: 15% off

Editorial standards

What this
platform protects.

Stokeshire's authority with families has been built since 2020 on consistent, accurate, experience-based information. That trust is what gives a placement here its value. Partnerships that would compromise it are not taken, regardless of budget.

The standards below are not negotiable. They are also the reason a placement here is worth more than a comparable slot on a site without them.

Transparency policy

All sponsored content, paid placements, and affiliate relationships are disclosed to readers, and paid links are marked as sponsored. Stokeshire does not accept payment to suppress a disclosure or remove a disclaimer. This applies to every partnership type.

We accept partnerships with
YesPremium pet nutrition brands (kibble, raw, supplement) with documented safety standards
YesLeash, collar, harness, and gear brands whose products we have tested or use ourselves
YesProfessional grooming brands with ingredient transparency
YesHealth, tracking, and safety products (GPS, insurance, veterinary platforms)
YesTraining tools and enrichment brands aligned with positive-reinforcement methods
YesHome and lifestyle brands whose aesthetic matches the Stokeshire family
We do not accept
NoOther breeding programs, puppy marketplaces, or dog sellers of any type
NoAnchor-text-directed insertions that override editorial context
NoDo-follow paid links. Every paid link is marked rel="sponsored"
NoProducts outside the categories above, including software and services unrelated to dogs
NoProducts that make health claims we cannot independently verify
NoRetroactive requests to edit or remove disclosures from published content

Billing

Checkout is
the invoice.

Every placement is purchased at checkout on this site by card or PayPal. The order confirmation is your invoice and receipt, and the order number is the reference for your placement. We do not issue separate invoices for single placements, and we do not begin work on a placement that has not been paid.

Packages and bulk orders are scoped through the inquiry form and paid through one consolidated checkout link. Questions about an order already placed go to marketing@wisconsindesignerdoodles.com with the order number in the subject line.

Payment methodsCard or PayPal, at checkout only
ReceiptsOrder confirmation email, sent automatically at checkout
RefundsReturned to the original payment method

What happens after you pay

  • Within minutes: order confirmation with your order number. It is your invoice and receipt.
  • Within two business days: editorial review. If anything needs to change, we contact you once with specific feedback.
  • Within 7 to 10 business days: the placement is live and you receive a confirmation email with the URL. Stokeshire-written posts publish about six weeks after the product arrives.
  • If declined before production: a full refund to the original payment method, with the reason stated.

What we do not do

  • Send invoices or payment links for single placements. Checkout is the single path.
  • Accept placement details, anchor text, or target URLs by email.
  • Start work, publish, or place a link before payment has cleared.
  • Negotiate rates on a first order.
Turnaround

Timeline and turnaround.

Standard turnaround applies to every placement. The Stokeshire-written post runs longer because our team uses the product for 30 days before we write. We do not sell Priority or Rush tiers. Every placement receives full editorial review.

Common questions

No. Every paid link on Stokeshire is marked rel="sponsored" and the page carries a disclosure. This follows Google's policy on paid links and is not negotiable. If your client requires a do-follow link, this is not the right placement.

Yes, through the Stokeshire-written sponsored post. Ship the product to us, then order. Our team uses it for 30 days. If it earns a recommendation, we write and publish the article, with a disclosure that the product was sent to us and that the article is sponsored. If it does not, we do not publish, and the order is refunded in full. Products are not returned.

No. Placement details are collected on the order form at checkout so they stay attached to the paid order and the editorial review. Details sent by email are not tracked and are not acted on.

PayPal and card are both available at checkout. We do not issue separate invoices for single placements. Packages and bulk orders receive one consolidated checkout link after the scope is confirmed through the inquiry form.

You can request a topic, page, or category on the order form. Final placement is decided by Stokeshire's editorial team based on contextual relevance and reader value. We do not accept anchor-text-directed insertions or placement in specific URLs without review.

We return it with specific feedback and one round of revisions. If the content still does not meet our standards after revision, the placement fee is refunded minus a $50 editorial review fee. Stokeshire-written posts are not subject to this, since we handle the writing.

One URL update within the first 90 days is included at no charge. After that, link updates are $25 each. Edits to the surrounding text are not offered. The editorial context belongs to Stokeshire.

Placements are not refundable once published. If a placement has not entered production, we issue a full refund. Cancellation requests must be sent in writing to marketing@wisconsindesignerdoodles.com with the order number.

Blog placements and link insertions are permanent. They remain live as long as the content exists on the site. Instagram Stories expire after 24 hours. Newsletter mentions are delivered once at the time of send. The Preferred Partner Badge runs for one calendar year from activation.

You receive a confirmation email with the live URL once a placement is published. Ongoing traffic or click data is not included in standard placements. Preferred Partner Badge holders and agency bulk partners receive a quarterly performance snapshot as part of their program.

We do not offer exclusivity unless it is negotiated as part of a Preferred Partner Badge or annual agreement. Competing brands never appear on the same page or in the same piece of content. Category conflicts are managed editorially.
