What newspaper advertising costs in Pietermaritzburg

Each Pietermaritzburg 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.
