Display Advertising Options

The Aiken Horse offers a range of display and classified advertising options. For display ads, we have multiple insertion discounts. We also offer discounts to local businesses and to qualified 501 C(3) charities.

Local Discounts are for local businesses within 100 miles of Aiken County. These discounts are intended to enable Aiken horse businesses to continue advertising with us as we expand. The discounted rate is also available for co-op ads, as long as one member of the co-op is located within our local area.

Charitable Rates: The Aiken Horse is dedicated to helping recognized charities publicize their organizations and events. Accordingly, we offer recognized 501 C(3) charities a discount of 15 percent off our advertised rate.
