Advertise with Manx Wire
Put your business in front of people across the Isle of Man, on the pages they check every day.
Manx Wire is the island's news, live travel, buses, weather and tides in one place: pages people come back to several times a day. We're now taking bookings from local businesses for our launch.
Why advertise with us
- Everyday habits. Bus times, the next sailing, tide times and the weather bring readers back morning and evening, not just when there's big news.
- Local reach. Everything we publish is about the Isle of Man, for people who live, work and holiday here.
- A safe place for your brand. Every story is checked before it is published, and reader comments are moderated every day.
- On phones and in the app. The site is built for phones first and can be installed as an app.

Sponsored articles and listings
Sponsored articles and featured event listings are available. They are always clearly labelled as sponsored and are never presented as our own reporting. Classified and job listings are coming soon.
Audience and rates
We'll publish audience figures here once we have a full month of data. Until then, launch partners get introductory rates — ask us for the rate card.
Our standards
We don't accept advertising that is misleading, discriminatory or made to look like news, and advertisers have no say over what we report. Read our editorial policy.
