DESCRIPTION (Transit Advertising) [back to top] Transit advertising with Blue Line Media is an excellent medium to reach the general public. Transit advertising displays are located inside and outside of buses, subway cars, trains, bus benches and more. Because of their great visibility and low cost, transit advertising boards produce impressions at a low CPM.
Transit advertising signs come in several forms, all of which are listed below under "Products."
With the growth of DVR use, transit advertising posters and placards have grown in popularity. Because the target demographic can't fast forward through a transit advertising board or placard, like they can with a TV commercial, transit advertising boards are highly effective in garnering large numbers of gross impressions.
All types of advertisers use transit advertising posters and placards to get the word out about their products and services, including Fortune 500 companies, federal and state government agencies and nonprofit organizations. See their transit ad displays in the News section.
Make transit advertising media part of your outdoor-out of home advertising media mix, including transit advertising media, bus advertising media, bus-transit stop-shelter advertising media, bench advertising, subway advertising media, train-rail advertising media, billboard advertising media, mobile billboard advertising media, airport advertising media and more.
