Advertise in the Wenhaston Word

Whilst Blythweb Ltd provide the publishing and printing skills and time for free there are costs in terms of paper and printing costs which have to be recouped through advertising. The Wenhaston Word is distributed throughout Wenhaston and Mells by a team of volunteers who make sure that it is delivered to every house including holiday cottages. In total 450 copies are published every month. Starting with the first edition published by Blythweb Ltd (April 2007) the Wenhaston Word is available online from this website and from the Wenhaston Website (www.wenhaston.net).

We have endeavoured to keep advertising rates to a realistic level. All rates include VAT.

Display Adverts:
Display adverts are based on two columns per A5 page and are 6.5cm wide. We charge £2.20 per column centimetre for a black and white advert and £5 per column centimetre for a colour advert.

We are happy to accept a short (150 words max) editorial piece to support a display advert where this is appropriate.

Lineage Adverts:
We also offer lineage adverts in our Small Ads ("For Sale"/"Wanted" items only) and Local Business Listings. The charge for this is 20p per word with a minimum charge of £2. In our small ads section you can include a colour photo for £5.

How to send your advert:
You can send us your advert by email in most standard formats. We do not support MS Publisher so cannot accept any files in .pub format. We can accept Adobe Acrobat documents and Adobe Illustrator. We can accept graphic files as well although with these you should remember that they need to be at 300dpi resolution.

We can accept text on hard copy ideally in clear printing that we can OCR.

Photos should be JPEG and 300dpi (at least 750 pixels wide to fill a column).

Articles and Reports:
If you want to send us an article for publication this should be plain text with no formatting and be no more than 550 - 600 words (ie one page of A5). Ideally we would like this as an email or on a disc that we can import straight into the Word.
