Featured Listings

    Having a Featured Listing on TMC means your mud will be returned at the top of all TMC-wide searches in a special section for featured muds. The mud's name is also emphasized in boldface to stand out. The standalone cost for a featured listing is $100/mth. Featured Listings are subject to limited availability - Please contact admin@mudconnect.com for availability and general information about setting up a featured listing.

(Note:) Please be advised that the TMC main index page is typically not included in general rotation campaigns, as it is devoted to exclusive campaigns.

These rates apply to standard sized ad banners having dimensions somewhere between 360x72 and 468x60 as well as oversized banners sized at 728x90. The physical file size of an ad banner should not exceed 36 Kilobytes in size. If you have a banner you are interested in running and are not sure if it meets our requirements please contact us at admin@mudconnect.com.

If you have a flash-based advertisement or something else which falls outside of the standard ad banner classification send us an email so we can explore your options.

Effective April 20th, 2012 TMC will no longer be offering commercial ad banner advertising. Instead we will be providing free banner advertising for the muds that are listed on the TMC website.


All logos submitted via the TMC listings system will be elligible for display on various pages within the website, these pages will randomly select logos from the mud listings so if you have not yet submitted your banner-sized logo now is a great time. Logo submissions are handled via the TMC mud listings system ( there is no need to contact us unless you are unsure if your logo is age-appropriate for this website ).


Additionally, we will be selecting specific banners to be displayed on the front page of the TMC website as well as other designated pages. We will be selecting these banners with consideration for the following factors:

  • Banners should be at least 720px in width and should not exceed 90px in height ( some exceptions may be made ).
  • Banners should be high quality and we will be taking note of color schemes used in the banner art that complement the TMC color palette.
  • These banners will link to the mud's homepage, so those homepages should be reachable and in working order ( eg not a placeholder or bare website ).
  • Though not mandatory we greatly appreciate those websites that link back to TMC and/or provide TMC vote buttons. We may consider link-backs for those banners that we are on the fence about.

If you believe your banner meets the above requirements please contact the TMC administration but keep in mind that no guarantees are implied that any submitted banner will necessarily be included in this list.


Its been many years since we first made the decision to start selling banner advertising on the site and we are proud to finally be in a position where we can comfortably offer this service for free to all of the muds that have helped TMC grow over the years. Thank you all for the many years of loyalty.
