Can I choose where my advert appears?
We do not offer preferred positions. Adverts are placed throughout the paper, never adjacent to each other, and not on the front or back cover. This protects reader experience and overall performance.
What artwork sizes do you accept?
Prepare artwork to the sizes shown under rates and sizes. For file formats, bleed and colour management, email ads@theparson.co.uk and the team will confirm the current specification and deadlines.
Do you offer advertorial articles?
Yes. We produce clearly labelled advertorials for suitable subjects. Pricing depends on the brief and placement. Email ads@theparson.co.uk with your idea and timeframe.
