Advertising with Families Solent East works…

Highly targeted distribution

  • We reach 20,000 families across our area every two months.
  • Our carefully selected distribution points ensure that our printed copies reach our readers directly.
  • Copies get snapped up fast with virtually no wastage — we rarely have any returns from our distributors.
  • Quite simply, no other magazine in our area serves our target audience in such a focused and entertaining manner.

Highly valued by our readers

  • We pride ourselves on high quality, entertaining editorial and accurate, comprehensive event information — all with a local focus.
  • The result is that ads in the magazine work harder for longer: our survey shows that over 80% of readers rate our what’s on section as their favourite feature, and consequently keep their copy for at least the full two months.
  • And the vast majority of readers read their copy partly for the advertisements.

The bigger picture

  • Families Solent East is part of a successful group of magazines which began 18 years ago and now includes 25 other regionally focused editions across the UK.
  • Group and multi-edition advertising opportunities are offered for the printed magazines and for the Group web site at Families Online.
