A more reliable way to plan print

Why every listing shows confidence, source and freshness.

01

Verify operation

A title is included only when a current publisher portfolio, a current edition or equivalent primary evidence supports print operation.

02

Separate facts from sales claims

We do not recycle historic readership or circulation numbers. Availability and rate-card details are reconfirmed for each campaign.

Advertiser FAQs

Newspaper advertising questions, answered.

Straight answers based on how the directory and quote desk actually work.

How do I advertise in a South African newspaper or magazine?

Search the directory by town, province or title, open the publication, and press “Request a quote”. Send your name, surname, email, telephone number, the publication, a short description and the size of the ad. The AdvertiseHere media desk (ads@advertisehere.co.za) confirms availability, deadlines and rates with the publisher before anything is booked.

Which publications are listed in the AdvertiseHere directory?

The directory lists 175 active print titles: 147 newspapers and 28 magazines and supplements across all nine provinces plus national titles. A title is included only when current publisher or current-edition evidence supports print operation (checked 13 October 2026).

Do you publish newspaper advertising rates or circulation figures?

No. Rate cards and audited circulation change often and differ by edition, so they are not copied into the directory. Your quote request returns current rates and available audience data from the publisher for your exact dates and ad size.

What ad sizes can I request?

You can request full page, half page, quarter page, eighth page, strip / banner, front-page solus / jacket, classifieds, inserts or a custom size. If you are unsure, choose “Not sure – please advise” and the media desk will recommend options.

Is there a cost or obligation to request a quote?

Requesting a quote is free and does not create a booking. You decide whether to proceed once the publisher’s availability and rate are confirmed.

Can I advertise in several community newspapers at once?

Yes. 123 of the listed titles are Caxton local community newspapers. Name the main title in the form and list any additional papers or towns in the description so they can be quoted together.
