Advertise with Post Newspapers and Reach Your Local Community

Put your brand in the hands of thousands of residents across Greater Manchester and Cheshire with a trusted, positive, and independent local voice.

Why Advertise With Us?

Unlike social media ads that disappear in seconds or “directory” booklets that get thrown away,
Post Newspapers offer a unique environment for your business to stand out.

Hybrid Reach

We bridge the digital divide.
Reach everyone from tech-savvy young professionals to older residents who prefer a physical newspaper.

Credibility

We are a profit-for-purpose social enterprise.
When you advertise with us, you aren’t just buying space, you are supporting the local community.
This adds “Social Value” to your brand, a perfect outcome for your annual social impact reports.

High Visibility

Your ad isn’t lost on our pages.
Because we are content-heavy, readers spend more time on every page, giving your business more “eyes” and higher engagement.

Longevity

Our readers keep their copies.
Post Newspapers are often kept, shared between family and friends and referred back to throughout the month.
