Calculating Your Advertisement's Cost
Step 1:
Chose the number of columns you would like based on the width of your ad.

Step 2:
Then choose how many inches deep (a vertical measurement between 1inch -14inches) you would like your ad to be.

Step 3:
Take the column number and multiple by the inch number. This will give you your column inches.

Step 4:
Multiple the column inches by the corresponding color/no-color rate that best fits your budget.

Example: I want a color ad that is 3 inches wide by 4 inches high. The column width that best matches 3 inches is 2 columns (3.22 inches). To figure column inches, I would multiply 2 columns by 4 inches giving me 8 column inches. To figure out the price of my ad, I would multiple 8 column inches by the rate of $10 giving me a total ad price of $80.
