Designer ads: Ads that have color as well as design or graphical representation or a photo in them cost more. Large color ads with designs are the costliest news paper ads.
Customer base: the cost a single sq cm is decided on the number of the people that have subscribed for the news paper. The more popular the news paper the higher is the per sq cm cost.
Cost of magazine ads:
Magazine ads are also very good way of advertising and marketing. Since many people read magazines they help you capture a larger audience. In a magazine the front cover ad and the rear cover ads cost more than the ads that are printed in the middle pages. In a magazine poster size ads can also be printed, but are costlier than the normal as well as the cover ads.
