About Advertising Placement

The Portland Metro Photographic News is loyal to advertisers.  Initial page placement of all ads is on a "first come - first served" basis.  The seniority and loyalty of our advertisers dictates continuing ad placement policies.  The long term or continuing PMPN advertisers will be rewarded and acknowledged with placements closest to the top of each page.

So, get on board early and "lock in" your prime ad placement.

About Monthly Advertising Payment Due Dates

NOTICE: The Portland Metro Photographic News is a small local business, and we run a tight ship.  We strive to keep our overheads down in every possible way.  No executive bonuses. No company cars.  No exotic island retreats for corporate seminars.  This strict control of PMPN expenses allows us to offer extremely competitive advertising rates.  Our commitment to providing you with the lowest possible advertising costs can only continue if our advertisers are equally as diligent in paying their monthly ad fees.  Advertisers who do not submit payment by the established due dates will see their ad withdrawn the next business day from the PMPN web site and their placement position given to the next senior advertiser.  Notwithstanding these measures, all remaining contracted advertising fees remain owed and immediately payable to the Portland Metro Photographic News.
