Better Distribution

North Leeds Life magazines are the most widely read local community magazines in North West Leeds, with over 100,000 readers from Headingley in LS6 to Ilkley in LS29.

We offer the highest circulation of any daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly news-based publication in our distribution areas. 20,000 copies are delivered directly to households and businesses each month and 10,000 copies are distributed through local supermarkets: Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Tesco & Co-op.

3.

A Targeted Approach

Speak directly to the customers you want - we produce three separate editions each month so advertisers can target specific local communities, with no wastage. Reach readers with high disposable incomes in Group A: (Headingley, Weetwood, West Park & Meanwood edition), Group B: (Horsforth, Cookridge, Adel & Bramhope edition) and Group C: (Otley, Menston, Burley-in-Wharfedale and Ilkley edition).

4.

For The Community

We are a locally based family-owned firm, completely independent from any other publishers and with a genuine commitment to local news, events, people, organisations and businesses. We pride ourselves on being part of the communities we cover and use local suppliers and create jobs for local people wherever possible.

5.

More Than Just Adverts

Our magazines are not just business directories full of adverts – they are packed with interesting, locally-produced, relevant editorial including news, reviews, features, listings and profiles. We offer a high editorial to advertising ratio: averaging over 50% editorial per month, to create an interesting, topical publication that people keep and read.

The Digital Revolution

We have been publishing since 2005 and have developed a loyal following of both readers and advertisers. We average 80% advertiser retention month after month, and most of our regular advertisers have been with us for years.

Our magazines are highly valued and trusted by residents as a source for reliable local trades and other businesses.

High quality, glossy magazine production, averaging 64 pages per edition in a convenient size (30% bigger than A5) designed to fit easily in a handbag, pocket, briefcase or bookshelf.

Our eye-catching, full colour magazines are designed in-house every month to create an exciting, easy-to-read publication that is unmistakably North Leeds Life.

Whether it is advice about how to make the most of your advertising budget or creating advert artwork that will stand out from the crowd - we are here to help! Adverts start from as little as £47 + vat per month (on series booking); we can produce free artwork if you need it and also offer discounted rates on series bookings.

As well as the magazines, we have a growing website (over 16,000 hits per month) that is continually updated with all the latest local news and events at www.northleedslife.co.uk.

We also support our online presence with an ever-increasing number of Twitter followers (@northleedslife), dedicated Facebook page and regular e-newsletters.
