When starting your marketing journey one of the most important steps is understanding how the pricing works. Knowing what you’re paying for and why helps you make smart decisions, manage your budget, and get the best value from your investment.

At Modern Magazines, we believe in keeping things clear, flexible, and straightforward. Here’s how our pricing works and what to expect when booking an ad with us.

Different Pricing Packages #

We offer different pricing packages for our magazines. These include various advert sizes and premium spots in the magazine, like front or back covers, and middle pages.

Options include full page adverts, double-page spreads, combinations of advert and editorial, plus the opportunity to feature on our social media, website, and e-magazines for added exposure.

Picking the right package depends on your budget and target audience. Are they more active online? Are they homeowners reached through our print distribution? Choose the package that best supports your goals—whether it’s visibility, clicks, or long-term presence.

What Affects the Price? #

A few key elements influence ad pricing:

• Ad Size & Format
  A full-page colour ad costs more than a half-page or classified ad. Digital ads (e.g., banners, sponsored content) vary based on size and format.
• Ad Placement
  Premium pages—like covers, early pages, or high-traffic sections—cost more but offer better exposure.
• Duration & Frequency
  Booking multiple issues may increase upfront cost but often includes volume discounts or added value.

Understanding these factors helps explain why two ads in the same magazine might be priced differently.

Advertising Packages #

We offer flexible advertising packages designed to suit a range of needs and budgets:

• Basic Packages
  Ideal for small businesses or one-off placements. Affordable and effective.
• Feature Packages
  Includes larger sizes, better positions, or multiple placements for enhanced visibility.
• Custom Packages
  Tailored campaigns using a mix of print, digital, longer runs, or special creative elements.

All packages offer flexibility, control, and great performance no matter your budget. See the full breakdown in our media pack.

Other Costs to Consider #

In addition to your ad space, a few extra costs may apply:

• Premium Placements
  Spots like the inside front cover or centre spread cost more—but they also deliver prime exposure.
• Add-Ons
  Boost visibility with enhanced listings, feature highlights, or bundled digital + print exposure.

We’ll always be upfront so there are no surprises.
