Sponsored posts and hyperlinks

We offer businesses an opportunity to publish ‘sponsored posts’ and external “do follow” hyperlinks to help promote their brands within engaging editorial content.

This service is proving popular since we launched it in early 2019, as businesses seek to take advantage of our massive and growing 60,000+ monthly audience across Cheshire.

Sponsored content will be posted in our “Features & Lifestyle” section and promoted via our normal social media channels, too.

Such content may be marked “sponsored” or “guest” at the start or end of the post to ensure full transparency for our audience.

Content needs to adhere to our site’s ethos, and editors will request a draft of any content prior to publication.

It will be judged on suitability for our audience, level of interest, sensitivity, taste and decency, among other elements.

Editors reserve the right to refuse publication, which will incur no cost to the sponsor/customer.

If content is accepted, the following prices are applicable for any published sponsored content:

• £40         editorial up to a maximum of 400 words, including maximum of 2 hyperlinks
• £55         editorial 400-700 words, including maximum of 3 hyperlinks
• £70         editorial more than 700 words, including maximum of 5 hyperlinks

All prices above are inclusive of VAT.

You may also wish to insert a “do follow” hyperlink to our existing editorial content  to push traffic to your or your client’s digital platform.

If the linked to site is acceptable to us, we charge the following:

• £30           one “do follow” hyperlink
• £40           two “do follow” hyperlinks

Payment should be made within 48 hours of publication evidence being issued to you.

This can be done via Paypal, Stripe or BACs. Invoices can be provided on request.

Please get in touch on [email protected] and we will try to help you reach our huge audience.
