What makes us unique?

Not every publication is equal. While Rock Hill has several "lite" options for periodicals, we saw the need for something more in-depth and more thoughtful that will bring new writing to the area in a publication that will be seen, read, appreciated, and talked about.

Our goal is to become a unique, leading publication in the area of localism that benefits Rock Hill's residents, businesses, and organizations.

How? Glad you asked! All content is from local sources, just like our ads. This is where advertisers, sponsors, and supporters come in: from photos to writers, we seek to employ only local resources for our advertisers, sponsors, and supporters who have the opportunity to fill our pages with their brands.

Not only do we offer space for traditional ads (quarter-, half-, and full-page), RHR the Magazine will thrive on native advertising ads that double as quality content that includes links and videos. Our idea of native advertising offers an interactive narrative to our readers so they have a positive interaction with various brands.

The RHR has 3 opportunities for those who wish to advertise on our pages

Advertisers: Those who wish to advertise in the magazine pay to do so.

Price depends on the type of ad.

Sponsors: Those who sponsor the magazine increase their brand awareness while helping us grow through giveaway contests of their services or products. Sponsorships can also include promotional pricing and promo codes exclusive to our subscribers or may sponsor an entire issue.

Supporters: Supporters of the magazine are those who we have a special relationship with. We love to feature recognizable Rock Hill images and icons of local organizations we are proud to be affiliated with. We trust that, like our advertisers and sponsors, our supporters will share our most recent issue with their mailing list subscribers and on their social media.

While none of this is set in stone, we allow any business or organization to become an advertiser or sponsor but reserve the role of supporter to nonprofits and growing ventures that may not have much capital.

No matter what, we highly encourage you to contact us today and we would be happy to work something out that benefits all involved!
