Advertising Information
“We are getting an eighty cent cost per click on your site. That is just incredible. That is better than we do with Google Adwords!”
The Twin Cities Daily Planet offers great original stories and commentary, interactive opportunities for readers, and a convenient portal to more than 40 neighborhood and community media partners. We currently average more than 80,000 visits, and more than 140,000 page views per month.
The Daily Planet’s wide range of news sources and original content attracts some of the most diverse, engaged and active residents of the Twin Cities—join us as an advertiser!
You can advertise on the Daily Planet for as little as $50 a week. For that rate, we will guarantee you a minimum of 2500 page views in one of our premium ad locations. That works out to a cost of 2 cents per page view, ($20/CPM) – a very competitive rate.
Actual cost per reader may be a lot lower. Ads run in rotation, so actual cost per reader depends on how many ads are sharing the space. Currently, only three or four ads run in each of our premium spaces, so effective cost per page view works out to less than one cent per reader – and will never be more than two cents. (For more exposure, buy more than one “share.”)
Ads may be submitted in .jpg or .gif format. We can design your ad for a nominal fee. For more information contact Cindy Collins at cindy@tcdailyplanet.net / 612-802-0374.
