Why Advertise With Kent Local News?
Hyperlocal Audience
Every visitor to our site lives, works, or has a direct interest in Kent. No wasted impressions on people hundreds of miles away who will never use your services.
Fraction of the Cost
Major Kent news sites charge thousands per month. Our rates start at just £120/mo — delivering real results without the corporate price tag.
Category Exclusivity
Unlike large news sites that sell to every competitor, we guarantee only one advertiser per business type, per area. Your investment is protected.
Independent & Local
We publish original local coverage across Kent every day
SEO Benefit
Sponsored articles include a permanent dofollow link from our Kent-focused news domain — boosting your website search engine visibility long after the article is published.
Personal Service
You will work directly with a named account manager — not a call centre. We understand Kent businesses because we are one.
