This is a publication that markets your restaurant and its menu. We appreciate menus emailed to us in Word or Text format. It is easier for us to format text, rather than re-type the entire menu from scratch (increasing the chance for error.) However, pre-printed menus can also be used if necessary.

Every attempt should be made to take high quality photos with a digital camera. We prefer the raw photos taken directly off the camera. We are able to scan photographs as well. So if you have pre-printed photos you can provide them to your sales representative and we’ll make sure they are returned.

With newspapers’ rich tradition of keeping people accurately informed, enlightened and entertained, it comes as no surprise that studies show newspaper sites are the most visited sites for information about a particular area. Our two Internet sites, plumasnews.com and lassennews.com, each average approximately 1,000 visits a day, averaging 3 page views a session. As the largest newsgathering organization in this region, it’s no wonder our websites are one of the first places readers go for the breaking news they want when they need it.

And when it comes to traffic and exposure for your modest investment, look at what we have to offer: Use of web sites is somewhat seasonal and tends to be highest in Spring and Summer.

We are committed in our efforts to continue to be the leading news source for Lassen and Plumas counties; in whatever fashion readers choose. Breaking news stories are posted as they happen, while selected news and features, including the classified ads, from our newspapers are updated weekly on our Web sites.

Banner ads at the top of pages along with box ads are available on a variety of our Web site pages and can be targeted to your interests.
