Advertise on SwitchLine
Buy only the competitor pages you want: from $19 a month per page, not one $99 blanket. Each sponsored station sits beside the switch map, never inside the ranked results.
Status: waitlist only. Paid slots are not on sale yet and there is no checkout on this site. Prices below are the planned prices; you pay nothing until we confirm a slot with you by email and send a link to a third-party hosted payment page. We never see or store card numbers.
Prices and billing intervals
| Product | Price | Billing interval | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|

| B-tier page sponsorship | $35 per page (founder $26) | Monthly, auto-renews | Same, on a mid-volume page (for example zendesk, hubspot, klaviyo alternatives). |
| A-tier page sponsorship | $59 per page (founder $45) | Monthly, auto-renews | Same, on a top-volume page (for example quickbooks, docusign alternatives). |
| Any three pages | $69 | Monthly, auto-renews | Any three pages from the tiers above. |
| Click pack | $50 for 25 clicks ($2.00 per click) | One-time, expires 90 days after payment | Your station shown on relevant pages until 25 valid clicks are delivered. |

Prices are in USD, before any tax or payment-processor charges that the checkout page may show. Founder prices are locked for as long as the subscription is not cancelled. Page tiers follow the search value of the target term and may be moved between tiers as we learn real traffic.
Free first
- Free listing: a tool listed as an alternative, with its published prices and a link to its docs, is free. Corrections and claims are free and handled within 7 days.
- First 20 vendors: 30 days of one sponsored placement free, no card needed. It ends by itself and does not renew.
How clicks are counted
- A valid click is a human visitor following a link in a sponsored placement to your site.
- Outbound links go through a counter on this site (/out/ path) before redirecting to you. Same visitor, same placement: counted once per 24 hours. The visitor id is a hash of IP address and user agent with a salt that changes daily; it is not stored as a cookie.
- Known bots, link previewers and our own team are not counted. Clicks you generate yourself should not be counted either: tell us your IP range if you want it excluded.
- A public /stats/ page will show total visits and outbound clicks per placement, so you can check what you bought. It goes live together with the counter, before the first paid slot.
How clicks are delivered
- Subscriptions (monthly slots) show your placement for the whole billing month. Clicks are what the page earns; they are not guaranteed.
- Click packs (click pack: $50 for 25 clicks) are delivered by showing your sponsored card on the relevant pages until the pack is used up, in rotation with other sponsors. We stop showing it when the count reaches the pack size. Unused clicks expire 90 days after payment.
- If a placement receives fewer than 9 valid clicks (for a B-tier page; scaled for other tiers) valid clicks in its first paid month, that is a click shortfall: see refunds below.
How sponsored placements are labeled
SPONSORED Example: a paid placement always carries this label, a dashed outline, and sits in its own block, never inside the ranked list.
- Every paid link has rel="sponsored nofollow". We do not sell dofollow links.
- On this site a sponsored placement is a dashed-ring station with the SPONSORED tag beside the switch map. It does not change a distance, a cost, or the order of alternatives.
- Paid placements never change ranking, sort order, prices, scores or calculator results. We do not own or sell any product that competes with the tools listed here.
- At most 3 sponsored placements per page.
Refunds, renewal and cancellation (summary)
- Click shortfall: a click shortfall is refunded promptly after we confirm it, or credited as the next month free, as you prefer.
- Auto-renewal: monthly subscriptions renew automatically every month at the price shown at purchase until you cancel.
- Cancel any time: email contact@clioos.com before the renewal date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid month; you keep the placement until then, and you are not charged again.
- Full terms: Refund & cancellation policy and Terms of Service.
