Bus Advertising and Bus Stop Advertising - Bus Ads in 200 Markets

Blue Line Media (BLM) is a bus advertising company for advertising on buses or advertising on bus stops. For businesses, government agencies and nonprofit organizations interested in city bus advertising or bus stop advertising, municipal public bus advertising rental space by BLM (e.g., bus stop ads), a local and national bus advertising agency, is a great way to reach the general public.

Due to the great visibility and low public bus ads costs to advertise on buses, posting an ad on bus displays on the outside and inside of city bus lines -- or on bus shelter advertising displays -- produces high impressions at a low CPM. Similarly, double decker bus advertising (i.e., hop on/hop off bus ads) is a great way to increase exposure of an ad campaign using sightseeing tour bus advertisements.

Advertising on bus media with a municipal or city bus wrap advertisement, or a double decker bus advertisement, is available in several formats, all of which are listed on this website. City bus advertisements and ad on bus options are available in almost every market across the United States for organizations interested to advertise with public bus advertising formats such as bus shelter ads. The cost of advertising on a city bus with bus signs -- sometimes misspelled as "advertising on busses" -- and bus wrap cost is greatly reduced when compared to other ad formats, such as television, internet and radio. In fact, many researchers find that the advertising on buses cost for a bus poster (or a bus shelter ad -- sometimes referred to as bus station advertising or bus stand advertising) is the least costly of all researched media formats.
