How do you reach Node.js 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. npm install and three lines is the whole story.

    Node developers adopt in the time it takes to run a script. Open your posts with the install and the first call, and link to a page that starts with the same lines.

  2. Typed exports are now the baseline, not a bonus.

    Many Node developers write TypeScript. Publish the typed call and the autocomplete, and say the types ship with the package; a package without them gets passed over.

  3. Runtime choice is a live topic, so say what you test on.

    Node developers compare Node, Bun and Deno. Publish which runtimes your package supports and is tested on; a plain list reads as competence, and silence reads as untested.

  4. Maintenance is the trust signal they check first.

    Node developers have watched dependencies go unmaintained. Publish your release cadence, changelog and supported versions on your company page; it answers the question before they install.

Advertising to Node.js developers: your questions

Yes. Your posts can reach only developers who read #nodejs, or #nodejs with #typescript, #backend, #microservices or #bun, 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 Node.js developers there read about the JavaScript backend, runtimes and the APIs they wire together. We do not publish audience sizes per segment; tell us the regions and seniority you need and your plan proposal comes back with the reach it buys. 75% of active developers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 releases, typed examples and maintenance updates. Your plan puts them in the feed of developers who read #nodejs and #backend and in the Web Development newsletter. Lead with a quickstart that runs from a clean directory to a response.

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 Node.js developers who read #nodejs, #javascript, #typescript. The following stays yours between campaigns.

Yes. Engineering stories, culture and open-source work published on your company page reach Node.js 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. Prices are quoted per company, so tell us the audience and regions you need and we come back with a size and a quote.
