Small Independent Newspapers
July 15, 2007
Each state has what is called a Statewide Classified Ad Network (SCAN.) The SCAN is best defined as a “mother” company which comprises a network of many of the smaller independently owned and operated newspaper agencies in any given state. Each SCAN has its own flat-rate fee schedule for publishing your ad in each of the participating newspapers within its network. Many of the networks consist of several hundred newspapers. Therefore, when you order classified advertising through the SCAN for any given state, your ad is published in EACH of the participating newspapers, instead of only in the newspaper in your local area! This means your reach is by far greater than it would be if you simply ran an ad in your local newspaper, and you get your ads for just pennies on the dollar!
Below, is the contact information for each of the SCANs and its corresponding circulation information:
