Everything on this page can be booked today, with no contract and no minimum term. You tell us what you want, we reply the same working day with a quote, we write or build it, you see it before it goes live, and once it is live we send you a secure PayPal link. Nothing is paid up front. Job adverts, notices, newsletter slots and campaigns across several of our towns are also quoted on request; the advertise page explains those.

What you can book

Product What you get
Sponsored post Your story, written by us from a short brief, published permanently on The Ashford Times with a link to your website. It is labelled Sponsored, because that is the rule, and you approve it before it goes live.
Directory listing A page of your own in our business directory: your description, photos, opening hours and a link to your website, listed in the town and trade pages people search. A basic entry from public records is free; this is the full page.
Featured listing A directory listing placed at the top of its category page.

How it works

  1. Fill in the form below, or email hello@ashfordtimes.co.uk with the same details.
  2. We reply the same working day, with any questions we need answered to write the piece.
  3. We write or build it and send you a preview. Nothing is published until you are happy.
  4. It goes live. We send a secure PayPal link once your piece is live, and it stays live for good.

What you cannot buy

Paying us buys the thing you paid for and nothing else. It does not buy a higher position in a directory list, a better review, a mention in a news story, or protection from one. Our editorial standards page sets out how paid content is labelled and kept apart from our reporting.
