Online Advertising
We appreciate that buying advertising can be a bit of a minefield.
Often, you can end up talking to someone who tries to sell you the world, when all you really want to do is get a bit more promotion for something your business is doing! Sometimes, you know exactly what you're after and just want to pay for it and get it sorted - and that's absolutely fine by us!
We want to give you an easy way to get your message out there with the minimum of fuss and in a way that leaves you in control, so we've streamlined our approach to online advertising.
It's now easier than ever to get your advert live - in fact we reckon it's as simple as ordering your online shopping.
There's just a few things you need to decide first:
1. Advert Type
First, you need to establish what style of advert works for you.
There's currently two different types of advertising space available to buy in this way. Both have their benefits, it's down to you which you prefer:
- An MPU is a rectangular (300px x 250px) advert. They appear at the bottom of our homepage and in the sidebars of internal pages of the website.
- A Leaderboard is a longer and thinner (728px x 90px) position. They appear at the top of our homepage and internal pages of the website.
2. Campaign Length
Our Basic plan offers a short term solution for businesses who want to advertise an event or specific promotion. This might be a new product, a special offer, sales periods etc.
Space can be booked for anywhere between 1 and 4 weeks and, if you want to advertise for longer, just book more than one package!
3. Artwork
Some businesses will have graphics ready to go - and some will require a bit of help. Our marketing team are happy to design artwork for your campaign for a small additional charge per advert. If that's something you'd like us to help with, we'll be in touch when we get your submission.
Please note: all supplied artwork will be checked to ensure compliance with ASA guidelines.

Now you've worked out what you want...you're after the price, right?

Process
Please complete the form below and (if you're supplying your own artwork) attach it to the submission.
Once we receive your form, we'll create an invoice and send it to the email address you supplied. We use Paypal to invoice, which makes the process even easier - all you need to do is click the link and you can pay online by card without the need to set up a Paypal account.
If you want to pay by another method, that's not a problem - it might just mean the process is a little bit longer. When your invoice arrives, just get in touch and let us know and we can arrange that for you.
Once your payment has been processed and your artwork approved, we will upload your advertisement.
Please be aware that, if your advert is targeted at a specific start date, it's worth submitting sooner rather than later. We require a minimum of one weeks notice (two if you're not supplying artwork) to ensure your advert is uploaded in time for your campaigns start date.
