Please reserve your ads now: We will be increasing advertising rates in November (except for clients already advertising with us as of Oct. 1)

BANNER ADS:

For $150 a month, we'll list you as a page sponsor. That gets you the banner spot under our logo, Hometown Headlines, and it links our readers to your Web site immediately. You pick the page (The Buzz, our home page, Small Business). We offer one banner advertiser per page.

The banner ads sell for three or six months with half the cost paid the day we begin the ad and the remainder at the midway point of your contract. Those who prefer a six-month contract get a 20 percent discount ($720 vs. $900).

CUBE ADS:

For $100, you get a cube ad on all of our prime pages.

These sell for three or six months. You get a 20 percent discount with a six-month contract ($480 vs. $600).

BANNER/CUBE COMBINATION:

For $225 a month, you can be a banner page sponsor on the page of your choice and get a cube ad. We'll link both ads to your home page or to any two pages of your choice (i.e., to your home page and to a separate page on your site).

You get a 20 percent discount for a six-month contract ($1,080 vs. $1,350).

DOUBLE CUBE AD:

We'll create an ad that gives you added exposure on the left or right side of the page of your choice. Cost: $150 a month or commit to six months and get the double cube for $720. You save 20 percent.

NEW! 'SPONSORED' E-MAIL ALERTS

Each Monday, we send e-mail alerts to our subscribers about the weekly edition of Hometown Headlines. These subscribers also get all of our breaking news alerts. We now offer a customized e-mail alert sent directly to your specified clients (you supply the e-mail addresses, all of which are kept confidential). The customized e-mails come with your company logo on top and with the words "this update brought to you buy..." Your cost: $200 a month; three-month minimum commitment.

IN-PAGE ADVERTISING:

For $60 a month, we'll put together a three- to four-line ad that appears between stories on one of our pages. You pick the specific page. We'll use your logo and link to your Web site.

We gladly work with area radio stations and other media to unite your advertising strategy. We recommend a multimedia ad program.
