Why Advertise?
If you've got a message you want to get out to Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, then there's no more effective vehicle than NIT.
NIT is widely recognised as the nation's leading provider of Indigenous specific news and current affairs. We've broken more major news stories than all of our competitors combined and our stories are routinely picked up nationally and internationally by other media outlets.
Put simply, NIT has become a must-read for anyone with an interest in Indigenous affairs. And that's very good news for NIT advertisers!
Who Reads NIT?
Every week, our print version of NIT reaches at least 80,000 black and white readers around the nation.
NIT is well-read by people working within Indigenous affairs. It's also well-read by mainstream media organisations and senior decision-makers in Government and private enterprise.
Our subscription database - readers who receive NIT direct to their home each week - reads like a Who's Who of Indigenous affairs and Government. We also have a very strong grass-roots readership of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people who want to know how the decisions made in Indigenous affairs affect their every-day lives.
Rates
The casual rate for an advertisement in NIT is $15.91 per column centimetre excluding GST, but discounts do apply for multiple bookings, and there are separate rates for Government organisations. If you represent a government department, you can contact us and we’ll provide you details of your special rate, plus your government-appointed advertising agency.
Colour - Does it Work and What’s it Worth?
Colour advertising does work. That's why most major corporations - like Coca-Cola and McDonalds - use it. The human eye is naturally drawn to colour. Adding colour to your advertisement in NIT is simple - just ask our sales consultant to include colour in your ad. It costs just $318.19 and is a very small price to pay to ensure your investment has the desired affect.
Targetted Advertising
NIT can tailor your advertising needs to specifically target regions or states. For example, you might want to get a message specifically to West Australian readers. No matter what your requirements, we can tailor a special package just for you.
For details on getting your message out to Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, phone our national sales office on 1300 786 611.

Working out the size - and therefore the cost - of your ad in NIT's Print Version is easy if you know how.
1. First, work out how wide you want your ad to be - 1 columns, two columns, three, four, five or six. Remember the wider the ad, the more likely readers are to notice it.
2. Then work out how deep it should be - from five centimetres to 38 centimetres. Again, the larger the ad, the better the response.
3. Then multiply the depth by the number of columns. So for example if you want your ad to be four columns wide by 20 centimetres deep, you multiply 4 x 20. This gives you the total number of column centimetres - in this case 80 column centimetres.
4. Times the square centimetres by your advertising rate (for example, the casual rate is $15.91)
... And now you have the price of your ad, excluding GST!

*Tips on Effective Advertising:
Businesses that don't advertise die, or so the old saying goes. But getting the most out of your advertising dollar can be a confusing maze. Read on to find out about the 7 habits of highly effective advertisers. Click to Read On...
1. Size matters.
Generally, the larger the ad, the better response you'll get. If your budget is tight, then rather than placing a small ad every fortnight, you might want to consider placing a larger advertisement less frequently. But remember, the more you spend, the more you earn so if you can stretch your budget a little further you're better off placing a larger advertisement every fortnight. It's an investment for the future.
2. Page dominators work.
A 'page dominator' is an ad that dominates a page. So, for example, you should consider placing an ad that takes up more than half a page (a 28cms x 4 column ad is a great 'page dominator'. This means your ad will be the most noticeable 'design' on the page, regardless of what headline or picture runs next to it.
3. Be prepared to repeat your message.
It generally takes a while for an advertising message to sink in, so budget to repeat your message as often as you can.
4. Be creative.
Advertisements that are creative grab peoples' attention. Use of tools such as humour, colour, creative designs, large graphics etc all help draw readers to your advertisement. When booking an ad with NIT, ask our sales consultants about getting your ad custom designed - it's free and it's effective!
5. Location? Location? Location?
Being up 'the front' of the paper is not always the best place for every ad. You should advertise in the 'section of interest' to your target market. So, for example, if you're advertising an art exhibition, talk to the NIT sales consultant about appearing in our arts section. If it's a job ad, you should think seriously about booking your ad into our employment section - that's where job hunters look. If your target market is sports people, you're probably best to advertise in our sports section. Readers tend to read NIT from 'cover to cover' so don't assume that 'page 3' is where you want to be.
6. Location! Location! Location!
Ok, if you're target market is all our readers, then being up the front can sometimes help. But be prepared to pay a little more for your ad - a front page banner ad, for example, has a 100 percent loading fee (twice the normal column centimetre rate). It isn't cheap but it's very, very effective.
7. Last but not least, consult the experts.
The advertising sales consultants at NIT are experts at helping you to get your message out to Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Don't hesitate to ask them for advice on the best way to ensure your investment hits its mark.

About Us
Category: Other Published Date
The National Indigenous Times first hit the streets on February 27, 2002. The paper is staffed and owned by Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians and we are proud of the dedicated team of predominantly Indigenous Australian writers and columnists who contribute to the publication. It does not, and has never, received Government grants or funding. We continue to rely upon the good will and support of our readers and advertisers and we have continued to adopt a publishing mantra of publishing without fear or favour.
One of our primary goals is to bridge the knowledge gap for mainstream Australians of the aspirations of Indigenous Australians. We want to keep informing all Australians of the social and political issues affecting Indigenous Australians and to promote to them the many positive achievements in business, academia, sport and community life generally of Indigenous Australians.
By publishing the news, both good and bad, that has an impact on all of our lives we also hope to inspire people to achieve and challenge us all to speak out against wrongs committed.
The National Indigenous Times is the first and only weekly national newspaper that focuses specifically on Indigenous issues. Our publication is on sale every Wednesday and it is distributed throughout every State and Territory of Australia, including the Torres Strait Islands.
When we first launched the paper, we made two promises to our readers:
1. That we would do our best to help build a bridge between black and white Australia
2. That we would publish without fear or favour in highlighting the issues that affect Indigenous Australians
We continue to strive to achieve those goals and they remain integral to our whole purpose.
We hope you enjoy this new, revamped National Indigenous Times website. It's been a major undertaking for a small but dedicated group of people. We hope you find it entertaining, informative and user-friendly.
And ultimately, when you log off, we hope you leave our site with a slightly better understanding of the issues surrounding Indigenous Affairs.
From the team at the National Indigenous Times
