How do you reach C# and .NET developers?

Developers are the audience that taught the industry to block ads. The way in is not a louder interruption; it is the reading they chose, in the place they open every day. That is why daily.dev Ads exists: to help brands earn a place in that reading, week after week.

Written by the daily.dev Ads team, which plans and runs every campaign on the platform. Sources on the audience overview.

  1. No NuGet package, no evaluation.

    .NET developers expect a maintained client library before they try a service. Lead your posts with the package name and the install line, and write the examples in C#, not translated.

  2. Show how you fit the Azure services they run.

    Many .NET teams ship on Azure. Publish how your product connects to the Azure services they already use and how it deploys there, rather than a cloud-neutral pitch.

  3. Answer the compliance question early.

    Much of .NET runs in regulated industries. Publish your support policy, data residency and certifications on your company page, so a developer can forward it to whoever asks.

  4. Modernisation is the ongoing project, so meet them in it.

    Many .NET teams are moving from older frameworks to current ones. Publish migration write-ups that show what your tool keeps working and what it simplifies.

“We kept extending the relationship, asked to keep spend running monthly, and continued planning future placements. That’s a good signal that it delivered enough value to earn a place in the mix.”

Advertising to C# and .NET developers: your questions

Yes. Your posts can reach only developers who read #c#, or #c# with #aspnet, #azure, #backend or #microservices, with seniority and region on top. It is built on what developers read, not a self-declared profile.

daily.dev reaches millions of developers, and .NET developers there read about ASP.NET, Azure and service architecture. We do not publish audience sizes per segment; tell us the regions and seniority you need and your plan proposal comes back with the reach it buys. 75% of active developers across the network are mid-level or senior.

Your verified company page comes first, with C# examples, migration write-ups and release notes. Your plan puts them in the feed of developers who read #c#, #aspnet and #azure and in the Web Development newsletter. Lead with a quickstart written for ASP.NET.

Yes. Every plan includes a verified company page that developers follow. What you publish there (releases, tutorials, engineering posts) reaches your followers, and your plan puts it in the feed of C# and .NET developers who read #c#, #aspnet, #azure. The following stays yours between campaigns.

Yes. Engineering stories, culture and open-source work published on your company page reach C# and .NET developers where they already read, which is what makes an employer brand stick. To hire them directly, recruiter.daily.dev matches roles to developers who opt in.

daily.dev Ads is one managed monthly plan in three sizes, Starter, Growth and Scale. Every size includes your verified company page, your posts and releases in their feed and newsletter, creative made with you and a weekly report; the size sets the reach.
