The paid for magazines are also shrinking so why not go a a 6 times a year magazine? As a potential advertiser in all of them I feel that many of the magazines ad rates have not changed with the world. My web site www.dyna-ski.com which costs very little to maintain brings inquiries from all over the world although customers are slow pulling the trigger and dealers are even slower adding new boat lines!

Note how thin magazines, especially trade magazines, are getting. It was costing more to publish the magazine than ad revenues could support. Ben Pete:
