the May issue, along with our unrivalled news coverage, extensive reviews and
much more.
*
Festivals! Our giant April Festival issue, just published, once again
shows the recession-beating buoyancy of the scene. The 2010 festival diary is
now online, with nearly 400 events listed this year (organisers - check your
FREE entry!). Festival organisers have taken the trouble to tell us about
audience research which shows that of all the mags they advertise in,
fRoots is the one which produces best results for ticket sales and event
awareness.
DIGITAL EDITION
We launched a full digital edition of fRoots last summer as an
economic subscription alternative and it has been drawing interest and
subscribers from all over the world. See a full free-view demo version of a
digital back issue via our web site front page http://www.frootsmag.com .
* All adverts that appear in the print edition of
fRoots are carried in identical form in the digital edition AT NO EXTRA
COST, including working web links on all adverts of 1/4 page size and
above
See
http://www.frootsmag.com/content/ads/ads-info/
for rates & discounts, sizes, technical specs, stats
etc.
See http://www.frootsmag.com/shop/sub/ for secure subscribing on
line.
And remember:
* We have maximum 28 percent crossover readership with any
other music magazine. With fRoots you really do reach the long-term
committed folk, roots and world music audience and opinion-formers that no other
magazine gets to.
* Don't think of fRoots as a purely UK magazine. We take you
around the world - 40 percent of our readership is outside the UK. And this
worldwide readership - who buy on average more than 50 CDs each a year! - is
incredibly internet-wise: you don't need UK or international export distribution
in order to sell to them.
* And . . . the pound falling again can be good news for you! For
non-UK advertisers our advertising and subscription rates are now effectively
CHEAPER than before! And meanwhile, UK advertisers will find their prices
more attractive to our many overseas readers. Go for it!
