Types of Newspaper Advertisements

For any advertiser, it is really important to understand their requirement for putting up the ad. Before they place the ad in any newspaper, it is really important to figure out the purpose behind putting up the ad, an approximate budget, and what is the tentative feedback expectation. This helps the advertiser to make the advertising process pretty effective. But before anything first an advertiser needs to know about the different formats of Newspaper advertisement to make him/her ad decisions better.

The newspaper advertisements can be divided into three broad types based on :

Content matter
Purpose
Price
Location in the paper
Costing criteria

Let’s start with the types of advertisements to have a better understanding.

Display Advertisements – Display advertisements are premium ads that appear in a newspaper. These ads are the most costly one that is possible to place in a newspaper. There is an absolute reason behind it’s high cost, i.e., These kinds of advertisements allow an advertiser to put up creative content and creativity attracts customers. In the case of Display advertisement, an advertiser puts up the design that includes both text and images along with amazing colors, logotypes, Clip arts, and many more. Thus the purpose of putting up these kinds of ads is gaining more feedback. Generally, these kinds of ads are often placed by Business organizations, Educational Organizations, and Corporate organizations. These ads can be of different sizes and can be located on different pages throughout the newspaper except the Classified page which is dedicated to the Classified Advertisements. It is costed based on the size per sqcm. which varies from paper to paper. Surveys have proved that according to the general human reading behaviour the odd number pages, front page, and the back page acquires most of the attention. Thus, almost all newspapers placing a display ad in these pages cost more than placing it on any other page.

Classified Display Advertisements – Classified Display Ads are almost the same as the display ads. Except for the location in the newspaper. These appear only on the dedicated classified page in all newspapers. It is more visually appealing than classified text ads. Here customized font, color, logo, or image can be added to make the ad visually more effective for the target readers. These ads are charged based on per sq.cm. Generally, classified display ads are placed to communicate with a very specific group of readers which will fulfill both side requirements.

Classified Text Advertisements – Classified Text Ads are the most cost-effective advertisements in any Newspaper. The Ads appear in the classified section in the standard running text format and no creative images, logos, e.t.c are allowed. Thus, it is also known as Run-On-Line ads. Rate is charged per Line/Word/Character basis. Generally, this is not chosen for Obituary and Remembrance ads, because of not allowing any incorporation of pictures.

A Trip Back in Time: How People Talked About Newspaper Ads 10 Years Ago

Newspapers have been there for centuries and so has newspaper advertising. It is after all the oldest kind of advertising long before television and long before today’s internet generation.

It’s been a lot of ups and downs of the ad industry. If today can be considered as the era of digital media 10yrs ago it used to be the era of print media.

Let us go through a memory lane 10yrs ago 2010, the golden era of newspaper advertising.

Unlike today the internet was not so much available for the majority of the Indian population and smartphones were just invented. Back then print media advertising was thriving.

People looking for jobs would buy a newspaper scanning through the recruitment column to find the desired employment opportunities. Office workers would always carry a newspaper with them to read in their daily travel to work. This led advertisers to advertise more than ever in the newspaper. Whether to promote a new product, advertise a retail sale or just simply look for employees.

It’s not like newspapers were not popular media to advertise before 2010. It was, but 2010 was different; it was the golden era of newspaper advertising.

The readership numbers saw a surge and so did the innovations in the advertising. All the innovation advertising seen today in newspapers mostly started in 2010. More and more editions were introduced by each publication to reach every corner of the nation in an attempt to reach more and more readers.

It was also noticed that readers were more likely to respond to an advertisement if it was printed in a newspaper. Newspaper advertising started meaning as a trustworthy source for the advertisement.

Even with such a great image and response, newspaper advertising faced competition from newly introduced digital media which came along the newly introduced smartphones. Allowing users to have access to the internet on the go 24/7 which introduced a new platform for advertising the digital media.

This was threatening although newspapers had the reputation and sophistication it soon became a traditional advertising platform.

But as the newspaper industry is always evolving and adapting to the new age, many had the idea of mixing the two. Like our agency releaseMyAd, brought in a revolution in the newspaper advertising experience. Get adapted to the smartphone generation not forgetting the past. Newspaper advertising still had the highest readership back in 2010 and also the most advertising media. So we allowed advertisers to book their ads simply in 10 mins without going to any local agency but simply by using the internet in their smartphones.

This played a vital part in keeping newspapers thriving even when the new digital medium came into existence.

Other than this e-paper concept introduced by almost all newspapers operating even today has kept the newspaper alive from its golden era 2010 to the present day.

Today even if the physical newspaper is at a downfall seeing not much growth in readership numbers as it did in 2010 this old advertising medium is far from extinction as e-paper readership has been growing each day keeping newspaper advertising alive for decades to come.

The Biggest Problem With Newspaper Advertising, And How You Can Fix It

Newspaper advertising can be highly beneficial to promote your products, finding you the right employee or just to give a formal advertisement for legal purposes.

But as we shed light upon these pros of newspaper advertising lets us discuss the problems of this oldest advertising medium.

As you might know, 1/3^rd of the literate population reads a newspaper daily in our country. That seems a high number. But we must not forget that sadly even today India has a more illiterate population than literate. Hence there is a huge number of audiences you as advertisers are missing out on due to this reason. The solution is simply making the education mass grow more and more as a nation. But you as an advertiser can think of advertising in regional language papers more than a national one. Most Indian populations are more likely to know their mother tongue than English giving you an edge on readership number for your ad matter.

A single newspaper edition cannot cover the entire demographic of the country. A single edition of any newspaper can only cover one particular area where it is circulated. To fix this you can advertise in more than one edition of the same newspaper covering multiple destinations of your choice. With the help of releaseMyAd, you may also consider going for affordable discount packages allowing to cover more than 2 locations at once cost-effectively.

Other than this, newspapers, as we all know, have a really short shelf life. An ad printed in today’s edition is only relevant if the reader reads the newspaper today itself. Suppose he is to busy to even glance over it, forgets about viewing it the whole day your ad becomes irrelevant . to combat this you should advertise regularly and if that’s not possible you can opt for a front-page advertisement which can be costly but will grab the reader’s attention even if he forgets to read the entire paper that day.

Advertisements in a newspaper mean your ad will probably be printed along with editorial articles. but most newspapers also have a page dedicated only to advertisements known as the classified section. This allows readers to view ads in one glance giving them the convenience to find ads they were looking to view without reading the entire paper. Like a job seeker who might have only bought the paper to look at the current employment options, he could apply to, finding all the recruitment ads in one page makes it easier for his search.but on the downside with so many ads printed in a single sheet makes a clutter which influences the reader’s attention. To avoid this you can go for a display ad or full-page ads getting the full attention from the reader. Also just putting an enhancement helps your ad stand out in the clutter of a classified ad.

The digital medium has taken over our lives nowadays influencing almost every sector and advertising is no different. Social media ads and internet campaigns are growing noticeably in India and are giving a tough competition to this traditional advertising medium. Although they are new trending advertising mediums one must not forget even today newspapers hold the most readership and most advertised and trustworthy advertising platform. The high readership number should be taken advantage of as an advertiser to publish their ad matter and as for the internet ad competition its already being overcome through the e-paper concept which allows readers to see their newspaper on the internet without them purchasing the physical copy.

There are many problems as well as advantages of newspaper advertising and instead of overlooking the negatives we should embrace them and look for solutions to overcome them in this changing times of advertising.
