Classified ads
A classified ad
in Computing Japan is a low-cost way to reach your target audience. We
offer:
- highly competitive rates,
- a targeted audience of managers, IT professionals, and power users,
and
- month-long coverage in a quality publication that becomes a regular
reference.
If your company
is seeking a bilingual IT manager or technical specialist, or simply looking for
a cost-effective means to publicize a new product, a Computing Japan classifieds
can be your path to success.
Supplement Your Ad With Inserts
To supplement your magazine ad, we can arrange to have your
company flier or a pre-paid postcard inserted into all copies,
or only in selected magazines (such as subscriber mailings or
airline copies). This is also ideal for companies to use in
international trade shows; it saves on show printing costs and
provides an attractive premium for passersby
Convenient Reader Response
Each issue of the magazine contains a postage-paid advertiser
information request card and faxable information request page.
These response forms enable readers to easily indicate their
interest in your products or services. We receive and collate
these request cards and pages in our office and supply you with
responses to your ad on a monthly or biweekly basis.
Mailing Lists for DM Campaigns
The Computing
Japan subscriber mailing list as well as additional address lists containing
thousands of names in Japan and North America are available for sale (on disk)
or rental (as preprinted labels). We can supply you with a selection of target
names for your direct mail campaign or assist you to reach potential customers
on other ways (such as by fax).
Easy Access to Japanese Readers
If you wish to
reach both Japanese- and English-speaking audiences, take advantage of our unique
EasyAccess advertising package. EasyAccess enables you to advertise your products
or services in an appropriate Japanese-language magazine while dealing with us
entirely in English. Place your English ad in Computing Japan, and we'll
handle all ad translation and production, and even book space in the selected
Japanese magazines. Get access to the Japanese market at a price much cheaper
than you'll find elsewhere. We'll also compile incoming information requests in
English and forward the responses to you biweekly.

1. The rate for a two-page spread is 1.75 times the price of a single page
(e.g., ¥960,000 for one issue). In principle, a four-page spread is 3.2
times the price of a single page (e.g., ¥1,760,000 for one issue), and
an eight-page spread is 5.2 times the price of a single page (e.g.,
¥2,860,000 for one issue).
2. A request for placement of a two-page spread will take precedence over a
single-page request. The listed placement price guarantees that no full-page
ad will be placed on the facing page.

World Wide Web pages (http://www.computingjapan.com)
are a popular source of information about the Japanese business, computer and
IT markets. The number of "hits" (individual accesses) have been increasing
steadily since we set up our site in October of 1996, and is now averaging 15,000

main homepage. This box links to your own corporate Web pages or to a specially
designed advertisement page.
- A sponsorship "banner" displayed across the top of one of
our other Web pages, also with a link to your own Web pages or ad page.
- A text-only ad in our easily accessible Web-based Classified ads section,
with a link to your company's Web pages.
Web-page advertisements:
- Box, 100,000 JPN
- Banner, 75,000 JPN
