Benefits of membership

Salon Premium subscribers will still see advertisements on older Salon pages published before the Premium program's launch in April, 2001. In addition, the following exceptions also apply:


  • Certain services provided on our site by partners (like a search engine service or a contextual link to purchase a reviewed product) may be represented on our pages by the partner's branded logo
  • The Premium promotion box on the Salon cover may contain information regarding current renewal offers or other information relevant to Premium members
  • Certain kinds of "text-link" and graphic sponsorship ads and paid headline feeds will also be served to Premium subscribers
  • Certain kinds of clearly defined "advertorial" advertisements will be visible to Premium subscribers
  • Advertising may appear adjacent to content delivered to handheld devices via Avantgo and other services
  • Banners, pop-ups and text ads may appear in our Table Talk forum, our search engine pages and some of our Salon Directory pages
  • Ads may appear on pages that are published in cooperation with other sites ("co-branded pages"), such as our Salon/Nerve Personals service
  • Ads may appear in e-mails generated by our "E-mail this article to a friend" feature
  • Also, should Premium subscribers read a Salon page inside a "frame" on another site (for instance, About.com or Ask Jeeves), Salon cannot block the ads served by the "framing" site.
