History of the Bingley Hub

We created The Bingley Hub early 2012 after spending months pondering and talking to local business owners about their current advertising. We had been involved heavily in publishing the Prosider Magazine – the areas best known glossy prestige magazine, but the current economical climate demanded something a little different. With this in mind we set about creating more economic and a better all round offering than any other local magazine.

We’re still here, whilst others have come and gone… We must be doing something right.

What we do differently:

• 70 / 30 split (advertising/editorial)
• Good quality engaging editorial
• Relevant to the audience
• No consecutive adverts
• Transparent distribution areas
• Expert advertising support from professional designers and copywriters at Overt Marketing Ltd
• Online exposure from this online magazine, something most other magazine are not doing.
• Social Media exposure from our Facebook Page and Twitter feed

Ethics

We set about creating our publications from a completely different angle to most.

We have strong ethics and stand by our own rules:

Our purpose was always to help our customers reach their local audience, our magazines are built around this principle rather than a necessity to sell space. In fact, it’s rare we sell at all, most of our advertisers come to us.

• Interaction online through website, emails and social media, such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
• Well thought out advertising by professional marketing and design team.
• Highest quality design & print
