Now in our 14th year, Sick Drummer Magazine continues to push the boundaries of extreme drumming coverage. We now have a total reach of over 450,000 opt-in subscribers and followers of our social content. Our content is viewed in over 100 countries and is constantly experiencing a regular stream of growth.
Sick Drummer Magazine is the first interactive drum magazine and the first to focus on extreme drumming, while still providing content from other styles. If your products target the constantly growing metal market, there is simply no better place to advertise, as our readers are active, loyal, and have a vested interest in our continued growth.
We offer advertising space on our website, in our digital magazine, in our videos, and any combination of these at discount package rates. Our pricing ranges from $100.00 in ad zones on our site, to $600.00 for a full page in the free digital magazine. All digital magazine advertisements link to your specified URL, run for two (or more) months, and are then always available to our viewers with no website registration needed.
