Billboard Adverts in Houghton

Billboard advertising, or billposting, promotes a product, service, or brand to a large number of people by placing large posters, digital posters, or banners in key outdoor locations.

Billboard advertising is the most popular form of outdoor advertising in the UK (or out-of-home advertising, as it is sometimes known) because it is impactful and offers good value for money. Billboards are usually seen along busy roads and traffic junctions and are a popular form of high-street advertising. 

Our experienced teams offer many options in billboard sizes (ranging from A4 to 96-sheet posters) and illuminated and digital billboard options and can secure them in key locations nationwide. The costs of advertising on billboards in the UK can vary. Quieter locations are generally cheaper, while London outdoor advertising costs are more expensive. However, the return on investment is often worth that extra outlay.

We believe that the main benefit of billboard and outdoor advertising is that it attracts the interest of potential consumers in prime locations on a daily basis.

If this form of outdoor advertising is of interest to you and you’d like to find out about the cost of advertising on billboards in the UK contact us today. If possible, tell us your desired locations and approximate budget, and we will put together a campaign for your consideration. 

A suggested minimum spend for a good impact is £2000.

Does Billboard Advertising Work?

We get asked this a lot, and we believe that, as this popular form of outdoor marketing has been around for hundreds of years, the simple answer is “yes, billboard advertising works”—it has indeed stood the test of time!

We see positive results week after week for our clients.

One of the most effective and popular outdoor marketing methods, billboard advertising in Houghton is used by a wide range of advertisers and businesses, from small local retailers to international brands. As mentioned, they are commonly found on roadsides, outside train stations, and in general areas with high footfall. Parallel poster billboards are also very effective and are typically positioned next to main roads and motorways in an attempt to create maximum exposure—good when people are stuck in traffic.

Traditionally, billboards are printed, but there are also increasingly more digital billboard options for you to consider, which can offer even more stand-out for your advert. 

Here at PromoMedia, we have extensive experience designing and selecting the best placement of billboards throughout the UK. Whether you are looking for billboards in small towns and villages, busy high streets, or London outdoor billboards (for national advertising campaigns), look no further than us.

TOP TIP FOR BILLBOARD ADVERTISING: Billboards are so popular they do book up in advance. So, to secure the best sites, plan ahead.   

Cost of Advertising on Billboards UK

There are no standard costs for billboard adverts in Houghton, and the cost of billboard advertising in the UK is dependent on a number of factors. The primary variables which affect costs are:

  • locations – those with higher footfall are more expensive e.g. a billboard in Central London is more expensive than one in a smaller town.

  • Size of billboard – the bigger the billboard generally, the more expensive it will be. 

  • Timings – literally when you advertise; some times of year are more popular and are classed as “premium advertising times”, these include e.g. Christmas, Valentines Day etc. 

  • Length of campaign – how long you want the campaign to run for e.g. 2 weeks, a month, a year. We normally recommend a sustained campaign to build awareness. Normally for outdoor advertising, the minimum time scale is 2 weeks. 

  • Type of campaign - whether you are looking for a local or nationwide billboard campaign. There are many benefits to both, which again we can talk through with you.

There is no point in having a top billboard location if your design is poor.

On the other hand, if you have a designer in place you can just send us the artwork and we will supply this for your billboard ad.

Combing Billboards With Other Advertising Media

As stated, billboard advertising works very well independently, but we find that a lot of our clients use billboards in conjunction with other forms of advertising. For example, a potential customer may see your ad in Houghton on a street billboard, then hear it on the radio or see in a newspaper – all these methods help to reinforce a positive perception of your company and brand. It helps to create and build brand awareness.
