Rates
Rates are based on the number of column-inches a particular ad occupies. For reference, please refer to the table at right.
For example, a 2-column-wide and 3-inch-tall ad would cost a Utah business $42.00 (2 x 3 x $7 = $42). The total cost of the ad is quite affordable. Plus, repeat advertisers reach a target audience not impacted by most other forms of advertisement.
