Our Packages make it easy for you to connect with our readers, giving you the best value and proven combinations of our most popular placements and products.
All our Packages include One Complimentary Artwork Concept if you need, or you can simply provide your finished artwork to spec.
What’s more you can book and pay for your package online, right now! Plus upload your finished art or artwork brief – it could not be easier to tick “bring in new business” off your list!
Absolutely! Unless requested, your advertisement will appear in our ‘Standard Placement’ format, at the liberty of our Designers when compiling the publication. In the Business Directory, ‘Standard Placement’ will see your ad appear in alphabetical order within your chosen category.
If you request a specific page; or a specific position (1st, 2nd or 3rd) within a Business Directory category – our Designers will allocate your ad inline with your request (guaranteed!).
We call this, ‘Premium Placement’. Loading fees do apply and as they’re popular, they are subject to availability. You’ll find all the details in our MEDIA KIT.
We launched the Online Business Directory in response to readers giving feedback that they’d love to easily be able to look up local businesses on the-go. The Online Business Directory is a “self-serve” advertising product, where you can register, pay and upload your listing live – within 15 minutes!
Our Business Directory is a much loved feature of the District Gazette and we know its another reason why households hang on to their copy and refer back throughout the month! To give our most loyal advertisers more value, we’re offering a FREE Online Business Directory listing with every 12 Month Business Directory listing taken out. Giving you the best of both worlds!
We get it! You’re an expert in your field; as are we in ours! That’s why we include artwork in all bookings.
