Nothing public with a hard outline. Are you looking to invest advertisement money into a platform? We really don't tend to be a place that has a lot of rules. A standard advertisement relationship simply does not fit their current business model. They don’t want be the next YouTube or Twitter where companies pull advertisement money out and force that company to “fall back in line” to get the money. People value free speech more than anything else here. If you are expecting “YouTube level of advertisement friendly” then this place is far from it, and its best to look elsewhere. People in general do not want ads running alongside/on their blogs. Besides that an old business model that will die off from better ad blocking measures.
If you’re looking for rules and regulations for paying a blogger here to advertise then I do not believe there is anything in that regards. We are more of a “does the blockchain allow it” place. Therefore, if you choose to pay a blogger here 20,000 STEEM to promote your new line of shoes then by all means go for it. We are not set up with a marketplace that handles the legal agreements for that. That would have to be something creating by a member of the community who choose to run it and gain trust worth reputation. A major project like that would require the backing of a few witness who put their trust and name behind such an endeavor. For anyone to trust it.
Without advertisers burning Steem to get their content in front of Steemians there's little to no value proposition for investors. There is only value being sucked out from content creators. Many don't invest and just constantly power down. Steem needs to focus on getting advertisers in ASAP! I am only talking about no invasive ads like at www.coinmarketcap.com Just giving a cool place for bloggers to come write stories does not bring value into the system. Yet again, Steem INC. does not get it.

Nope, it’s you not getting it. Its ok, there are things money just can’t buy you in life. Like understanding the true value of human capital and how that impacts things like this site. Steem at a $402 million market cap. Don’t need advertisers on this site now did they?
