3. Advertising on Research is Cool


  • Now that I'm registered as an advertiser how do I advertise on Research is Cool?

Once registered you can access the advertising options by visiting your account options page on the top right-hand side of a page. This page allows you to create a course advert or a job advert.


  • I would like to advertise a job/course in a subject area that is not on your subject list. What should I do?


If the specific subject area does not fall into any of the broad subject areas in the drop-down menu, you will be given the option to insert the name of your subject area yourself, and we will add it to the drop-down menu within one working day. If on the other hand the subject area does fall within one of the broad areas in the drop-down menu, please select that broader option. We are currently working on making the subject drop-down menu much more specific, and will add an 'advanced search' option in the near future.




  • I'm trying to create a Job/Course advert but one of the required fields on the online form is not applicable to my advert. What should I do?


First of all, try a way around that by typing in something like TO BE CONFIRMED. If that doesn't work, please do not hesitate to contact us and let us know about your difficulty. Research is Cool is proud to be the most flexible research job site in existence, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.




  • ·I'm trying to create a Job/Course advert but I got an error message when I tried to submit the form. What should I do?


Occasionally, there are error messages if you have put an apostrophe in a particular field where there is not supposed to be one (e.g. email). If an error message appears when you submit your form, just click on the 'back' button (so you don't lose what you have filled in) and check the form for apostrophes. If this doesn't work, please report the error occurring via the form on the error message page, or contact us - we will try to fix the problem asap.
