The new arrivals
Orders came in, the truck is booked, and nobody knows a good mechanic yet. They search, then they ask a local board. The first name they trust is usually the one they keep.
Get in front of Warner Robins neighbors right when they're picking a business.
478 Hub is the local news and community board for Warner Robins, Houston County, and Robins AFB. Sponsors sit next to the posts people came to read. No pop-ups, no auto-play video, no banner that follows you home like a stray cat.

The audience
Who's on the other side of the screen
The lifers
Church fundraiser Saturday, garage sale route Friday, a side-by-side for sale out in Byron. They check the board before they check anything else.
The school-run crowd
Youth sports sign-ups, school events, and somebody giving away a stroller they're done with. Parents read local posts the way they read the pickup line: closely.
The deal hunters
They came for a used truck bed or a window unit. They're already in buying mode, which is the one mood every ad wishes it could cause.

You get a click report
Every sponsor link runs through a counter. Each month you see how many people tapped through.
Straight answers
Questions people ask first
How many people will see this?
We're an independent local site and we'd rather show you real numbers than invented ones. Ask and we'll send current traffic before you pay anything.
How do I know it's working?
We count every tap on your sponsor link and send you the total monthly. What happens after the tap, like the call or the sale, is on your side of the counter.
Is sponsored content labeled?
Yes. Paid spots say "Presented by" or "Paid sponsor." Anything an advertiser pays for is labeled, and none of it runs in the News feed dressed up as reporting.
What does it cost?
It depends on the placement and how long you want it. Tell us what you're after and we'll send rates.
Get started
Tell us who you are. We'll take it from there.
This goes straight to a real inbox, not a CRM that sends you a "thanks for your interest" about your interest. You'll hear back by email or phone.
