Advertise in the Wenhaston Word

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 440 copies are published every month. Whilst Blythweb Ltd freely provide the publishing skills and time, there are costs in terms of printing which have to be recouped through advertising.
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). There is no additional charge to advertisers to be included in the online version.

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 6.6cm wide. We charge £2.20 per column centimetre for a black and white advert and £5 per column centimetre for a colour advert. See our advertising spec sheet as a guide to sizes of adverts.

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 Local Business Listings. The charge for this is 20p per word with a minimum charge of £2.00.
In our Small Ads section ("For Sale"/"Wanted" items only) the charge is 25p per word with a minimum charge of £3.00. Colour photos can be included at £5.00 each.

Flyers:
We are happy to distribute promotional flyers inside every printed copy of Wenhaston Word. The charge for this service is £20.00. We would require 440 printed flyers supplied to us in A5 format. Flyers larger than A5 must be pre-folded or we can fold on your behalf but would make an additional charge of £5.00. Please note that flyers are not available to view online.

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 240 words. Ideally we would like this as an email or on a disc that we can import straight into the Word.
