Magazine Advertising That Reaches Readers Who Take Their Time
Magazines are read slowly and kept for weeks. We find the titles your buyers read, design a page worth stopping for, and book the right issue and position.

In Short
Is Magazine Advertising Still Worth It?
For the right audience, yes. Magazine advertising reaches focused readers: business owners in business titles, travellers in inflight magazines, buyers in trade publications. Readers spend more time per page than on any feed. LitSpark picks titles by readership, negotiates rates and positions, designs the ad or advertorial and tracks response with dedicated numbers and QR codes.

How much does magazine advertising cost in India?
Trade and regional titles can start around ₹15,000 per insertion, national business and lifestyle magazines usually cost ₹1–5 lakh, and covers and special issues cost more.
How far ahead should I book?
Monthly magazines close three to six weeks before the issue date, and special issues even earlier.
What is an advertorial?
A paid feature written in the magazine's editorial style and labelled as promoted. It explains your story in more depth than a display ad.
Can you design the magazine ad?
Yes. We design print-ready artwork to each title's size, bleed and colour specs.
Which magazines are read in Bangalore?
National business, lifestyle and tech titles have strong readership in Bengaluru, alongside Kannada magazines and city lifestyle titles. We shortlist by your audience.
Are digital editions included?
Many publishers include the digital edition or offer bundled print and online packages. We check what's included before booking.
How do I measure magazine ad results?
Use a dedicated phone number, QR code or offer code in the ad. We set these up so you can count responses per title and issue.
