Print orders are copies printed per edition as listed in Caxton’s Local Media publications table (14 October 2026); they are not audited circulation. “—” means the publisher does not publish a per-title figure.

What newspaper advertising costs in Johannesburg

Each Johannesburg title sets its own 2027 rate card, so AdvertiseHere quotes prices per booking rather than publishing estimates. Four things move the price most:

  • Size — full, half or quarter page, strips or column-centimetre display ads.
  • Colour print or black and white — full colour usually costs more than mono.
  • Position — front page, solus and early right-hand pages carry a premium.
  • Insertions — each edition is priced; ask whether a series rate applies.

How much does newspaper advertising cost in Johannesburg?

Print advertising prices in Johannesburg depend on the title, ad size, colour or black-and-white print, position and number of insertions. Request a quote on any title for its 2027 rate — prices are confirmed with the publisher, never estimated.

Can I advertise in more than one Johannesburg title at once?

Yes. Name the main title in the quote form and list the others (for example Comaro Chronicle and Eldorado Urban News) in the description; the media desk prices them together.

How many copies do Johannesburg newspapers print?

Where do I find advertising contact details for Johannesburg newspapers?

Each title's page lists its publisher, official website, the publisher's advertising sales desk and branch telephone number, and the AdvertiseHere media desk (ads@advertisehere.co.za). Send one brief and the desk contacts the publisher for availability and the 2027 rate card.
