do everything - ad design/production, translation/copywriting, placement. Ad design/layout
is at the discretion of our designers. You just supply high resolution images
(minimum 300dpi bmp, psd or jpeg file). With
this special ad package, we do not provide advertising statistics analysis/monitoring/reporting. Hip Hop Insider is published every 10th of the month. Materials and full payment are required at least 1 month in advance. All
prices are in US dollars. Ad space is limited and subject to availability. There
may be a waiting list. Rates and fees are subject to change. Please contact
us to inquire. If you don't already have a Japanese web or mobile page, we recommend that you setup a TopMusic.jp Full Version Japanese Web+Mobile Page so we can put the web link and QR Code in the ad. Artists/labels with a TopMusic.jp FULL VERSION Web+Mobile Page get $25 off ad prod./prep fees shown above. *We write "TopMusic.jp Recommended" or "TopMusic.jp Featured Artist/Label" on the ad. If you do not wish us to write that, please add 10% to ad rates above. | |||
