We are always looking at ways to harness new technologies to help you find new ways to reach your customers.

Print Advertising:
Published every Wednesday, The Coal Valley News offers retail advertising space in its pages to access new and existing customers using a competitive rate structure. Contract rates are available.
There are also retail advertising opportunities in our “Total Market Coverage” publication The Coalfield Connection, which is free to non-subscribing households throughout Logan, Boone and Mingo counties at very affordable rates.
Why should your business advertise in the The Coal Valley News?

• Newspaper advertising costs less per thousand readers than TV, direct mail and radio advertising.
• Newspaper campaigns require no out-of-pocket costs for creative materials. We’ll build your ad for free.
• Newspaper campaigns can be tailored to any budget. The medium offers a variety of ad sizes to fit your budget ad goals, from a one-column-inch ad to two full-page ads side by side called a double-truck.
• Because newspaper advertising is so affordable, it is an ideal medium to build “top of mind” awareness with frequency campaigns.
