Local Advertising

Advertise to people who still shop the tank, the market and Anna Salai.

This is not a Chennai-wide banner network. Useful ads here are silk showrooms, clinics, schools, messes, tuition, property in this belt, and neighbourhood services. City-wide apps, payday lenders and anything that looks like a civic alert will be refused.

Positioning

Seven neighbourhoods, not “all Chennai”

A Nalli or Rasi campaign belongs on the Mylapore pages. A clinic ad belongs near jobs and directory. A Boat Club property notice belongs on the river-edge guide. If your customer is “anyone in Tamil Nadu”, this is the wrong site.

Advertising Standard

Commercial clarity is mandatory

Clearly labelled

Sponsored stories must not look like civic alerts, 1913 notices or editorial news.

Locally relevant

Silk, healthcare, schools, food, property in these seven areas. No generic city spam.

Who we will not take

Payday loans, miracle medicine, political campaigning dressed as neighbourhood news.
