Knowledge Middle East · Get Featured

    Featured Articles for Schools and Universities in the UAE

    Put your institution’s story in front of the UAE education community, on the news platform it reads. Every featured article is guaranteed 25,000 views and comes with a full audience report.

    Why schools and universities choose Knowledge Middle East

    Knowledge Middle East (KME) is a Dubai-based education news platform covering schools, universities and policy across the UAE. We report on the decisions that shape the sector, from MoE, MoHESR, KHDA, ADEK and SPEA announcements to exam-board updates, rankings, research and campus news. Educators, parents, students and sector leaders read us to keep up, which makes KME a specialist voice in education media in the Middle East.

    A featured article on KME sits alongside the news your audience already trusts, not in an ad slot they’ve learned to scroll past. Senior leaders from UAE universities, school groups and policy bodies already write for KME, so your story appears in good company.

    If you’re weighing education PR, press release distribution or school advertising in the UAE, a featured article gives you something those channels rarely do: a committed number of readers.

    What every featured article includes

    Homepage placement

    Your article goes into the featured section of the KME homepage, the first thing readers see.

    Promotion across our social channels

    We share your article on KME's Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn so it reaches readers wherever they follow education news.

    A demographic performance report

    After the campaign, you receive a report showing how many people read your article and who they were, broken down by age, gender, geography and engagement.

    A permanent, search-indexed page

    Your article stays live on knowledgemiddleeast.com and is indexed by search engines, so families and students keep finding it long after publication day. Articles can link to your website, admissions page or event registration.

    Editorial support: you write it, or we do

    Send us a draft from your communications team and we'll edit and format it for publication. If you'd rather not write it, our editorial team will interview your spokesperson and write it for you. Either way, you approve the final version before it goes live.

    The 25,000-view guarantee

    Every featured article on KME is guaranteed 25,000 views. That isn’t an estimate or a “potential reach” figure. It is the minimum your article will receive, and your performance report shows the result.

    Most publishers sell space and hope it gets read. We commit to the outcome, so your team can plan around a number.

    Run a steady programme of stories across your network, from group announcements to individual school spotlights, with one editorial partner.

    Featured article series and retainers for the admissions season

    Featured article series

    A planned run of articles, for example a programme spotlight, a scholarship explainer and an admissions guide, published every two to three weeks.

    Retainers

    An ongoing monthly or quarterly partnership with an agreed editorial calendar, so your institution appears in KME regularly across the year.

    Series and retainers are timed around the UAE admissions calendar: university recruitment for January and Fall intakes, and school admissions for the new academic year. Every article in a series carries the same 25,000-view guarantee and comes with its own performance report.
