Straight answers
Page and business counts are read from each site's live sitemap. Search figures come from Google Search Console for that site. Where a site has not been measured yet, it says so and is left out of the totals.
Yes. Every town can be booked on its own at the single-town price. Booking more towns in one go brings the discount in.
Per town per month: ticker £5, news feed ad £15, section sponsor £20, homepage banner £25. The category spot is £149 a year per town. Book 2 to 4 towns for 10% off, 5 to 12 for 25%, 13 or more for 40%. The 50% tier requires all listed towns, which is not currently available for network placements. The page shows the exact total for the towns you pick.
A town is only offered for a placement when that advert can really appear on its site. A few towns run their own payments or are not set up to show network adverts yet, so they are greyed out for that placement rather than sold to you. They are marked on the planner.
The four monthly placements are monthly Stripe subscriptions. When one is cancelled, its adverts come down.
All of them are built and run by Dean Keating, from Horndean in Hampshire. They are independent local guides, not part of a newspaper group.
