Advertise on The Courier website

The Courier website receives thousands of visitors a month who view the site on desktop computers, tablet devices and mobile phones.

You can put your business name in front of all of them and offer our readers a direct link to your virtual front door.
Use a banner or a box advert with a static graphic or animated GIF.

Banners

Standard banners are 728 pixels wide x 90 pixels high. This format appears on desktop and tablet devices. Higher banners are available for some advertising spots on the site.

A smaller banner, 320 pixels wide x 50 pixels high is used for mobile devices.

Rectangular ads

Rectangular ads are 300 pixels wide x 250 pixels high. This format appears on all devices.

Advertising options

Main site banner

Appears on every page across the site on all platforms.

Section banners

Appear at the top of your nominated section (Council, Police, Community, Events, etc.)

Article banners

Appear on every article on the site after the third paragraph.

Rectangular ads

Appear at the end of selected panels and on Section home pages.

Shared space

Website advertising spaces may be shared with up to four advertisers.

For example, say three advertisers are sharing the same spot as yours.

This would mean a visitor to the site has a one in four chance of seeing your ad on any page you have booked it to appear on.

If they visit another page you have an ad space on, again they have a one in four chance of seeing the ad.

To increase the odds your ad appears, you can book two of the four 'slots' to be seen on 50% of the views, or book three slots to be seen on 75% of the views, or book all four slots to have exclusive use of that position.
