# magazine.ad

magazine.ad is the submission and publishing platform for the Firefly Magazines network: a growing network of local, regional and specialist online magazines across the United Kingdom, Poland and Ireland publishing positive, genuinely local news. Anyone can submit genuine news free for editorial consideration. More commercial or promotional content goes through paid plans with priority review, direct editor feedback and campaign support. Every published article passes human editorial review.

## How Publishing Works
One credit buys one published article on a magazine in the network, once it passes editorial review, with relevant images and rich media where appropriate. Submissions that need changes receive editorial feedback explaining what and why. Genuine community news (local events, charity updates, public interest stories) is always free to submit for editorial consideration.

## Network
Each magazine in the network serves one town, area or specialist interest with its own domain, editorial voice and local coverage. Machine-readable details for any network magazine are available at that magazine's own /llms.txt.

## Publisher
magazine.ad and the Firefly Magazines network are operated by Firefly New Media Ltd (https://fireflynewmedia.com).
