Who We Are
According to the founder of HudPost, there was a gap in local media coverage that needed to be filled. Out of all of the existing platforms, there were none that both authentically poured into and drew from the community.
The disconnect was clear, and in 2016, HudPost was born. From the beginning, HudPost has been an online publication that curates, creates, and celebrates content relevant and native to the people of Hudson County, New Jersey. With this focus, we are driven to consistently engage our audience in a conversation that is more relevant to their lives than other news sources.
In an effort to uplift and mobilize the community, HudPost is committed to spotlighting local businesses and community organizations. Ultimately, HudPost provides education, spreads awareness, and fosters community for all Hudson County citizens. In return, they share their stories.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cities and geographic areas does HudPost’s advertising reach?
HudPost reaches the entirety of Hudson County within the broader New York Designated Market Area (DMA), a standard geographic term used by media buyers to define regional markets. Our digital campaigns specifically target audiences in Jersey City, Hoboken, Bayonne, North Bergen, Union City, West New York, Secaucus, Kearny, Weehawken, Guttenberg, Harrison, and East Newark.
What performance metrics and analytics do you provide for ad campaigns?
We provide comprehensive digital reporting to track your exact return on investment. Advertisers receive detailed performance analytics covering total impressions, clicks, shares, saves, and comments. To measure budget efficiency, we also provide clear pricing breakdowns of your CPM (Cost Per Thousand Impressions), CPC (Cost Per Click), and CPV (Cost Per View).
Do you offer print advertising in your media kit?
No, HudPost does not offer print advertising. We are a strictly 100% digital and social media publication. Focusing exclusively on digital channels guarantees that our advertisers receive real-time, highly accurate tracking metrics and agile campaign optimizations that traditional print simply cannot provide.
Can a business secure exclusive advertising rights for a specific industry?
Yes, we offer strategic exclusivity buyouts for specific industry verticals to help your brand completely dominate the local share of voice. Securing exclusive market rights across our digital platform requires a minimum budget spend and a committed campaign duration, which our team will customize to your specific goals.
What advertising formats are available for local media buyers?
We offer diverse digital solutions to meet your specific campaign objectives. Media planners can purchase high-visibility display ads across our website, sponsor dedicated social media posts and videos, or commission professionally written, SEO-optimized sponsored content designed to rank in local search engine results.
Does HudPost accept political advertising?
Yes, HudPost accepts political advertising. We welcome issue-based and policy-focused campaigns that contribute to an informed civic conversation in Hudson County. Ads that critique legislation, policy positions, or voting records are welcome on our platform. However, we do not accept personal attack ads, content that makes unsubstantiated claims about a candidate’s character or personal integrity, or messaging designed to defame rather than inform. Our editorial standards apply to all paid content, and we reserve the right to decline any submission that conflicts with our community values.
Can you produce advertising campaigns in Spanish?
Yes. Every advertising product we offer, from Featured Spotlights and social media placements to featured articles and display campaigns, can be fully executed in Spanish by our in-house bilingual staff. This is not an add-on translation service. Our team builds Spanish-language campaigns from the ground up with the cultural fluency that Hudson County’s Hispanic community expects and responds to. With over 40% of Hudson County identifying as Hispanic or Latino and nearly 60% of households speaking a language other than English at home, bilingual execution is not a niche offering for us. It is a core capability.
What happens after I submit the advertising inquiry form?
Our team will reach out promptly to discuss your advertising goals and campaign needs. We’ll walk you through our full rate sheet, available placements, and current opportunities, and offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to make sure we find the right fit for your budget and objectives. We’re a fast and agile team, so whether you need to launch this week or are planning ahead, we encourage you to reach out today.
For Small & Local Businesses
Do I need to provide my own artwork and videos, or do you create them?
It depends on the package you choose. For our Featured Spotlights and Featured Articles, our in-house team handles all the heavy lifting, including video production, writing, and editing. For standard Display Ads and Social Media A La Carte posts, you can supply your own ready-to-go creative, or our design team can build it for you for an additional fee.
Is there a minimum budget, or do I have to sign a long-term contract?
We pride ourselves on being accessible to local businesses of all sizes. While we do have minimums for exclusive buyouts and bespoke enterprise campaigns, we offer one-off social media placements and short-term display ad runs with no long-term commitment required. You can start small, track your results, and scale up when you’re ready.
What are your payment terms and accepted payment methods?
Payment is required prior to your campaign going live. We make the process fast and simple through our secure online payment portal, where you can review our terms and conditions and pay via ACH transfer or any major credit card.
For Restaurants & Event Operators
How fast can my advertising campaign go live?
We are a fast and agile local team. If you are supplying your own creative for a standard display ad or social media post, we can often get your campaign live within 48 to 72 hours. Custom-produced content, like a Featured Spotlight video or an SEO article, typically requires a 1-to-2 week lead time for scheduling, shooting, and editing.
Can I advertise a time-sensitive event, grand opening, or limited-time menu?
Absolutely. We frequently work with local restaurants and event organizers to drive immediate awareness for grand openings, ticketed events, and seasonal specials. Just let our team know your timeline during the consultation, and we will structure a high-frequency, short-burst campaign to maximize your local visibility before the doors open.
If HudPost produces a video for my business, who owns the footage?
You do. Once we shoot and edit a Featured Spotlight for your business, you retain full rights to use that video however you want. You are completely free to download it, post it on your own social media channels, or use it as an asset for your own paid advertising campaigns.
For Ad Agencies, Corporations & Government Entities
Do you work directly with advertising agencies and PR firms?
Yes. We regularly partner with regional advertising agencies, PR firms, and media buyers looking to execute localized buys in Hudson County and the broader NYC DMA. We can integrate into your media plan, provide white-label reporting if needed, and offer agency rates for high-volume or ongoing enterprise commitments.
Can agencies use their own tracking links, and what reporting is provided?
Yes. We highly encourage agencies and media buyers to submit their own UTM parameters or tracking links so you can monitor website traffic directly in your own analytics platform. Additionally, HudPost provides comprehensive campaign reporting covering total impressions, engagement, link clicks, and video views.
Do you offer Net-30 billing terms for government and agency partners?
While our standard policy requires upfront payment to keep our local operations agile, we understand the procurement processes of larger entities. We do offer flexible billing terms such as Net-30 on a case-by-case basis for state agencies, government entities, and established corporate partners with a proven track record.
How do you handle political ad disclosures and compliance?
We strictly adhere to all local and federal disclosure guidelines for political advertising. All political and issue-based ads are clearly marked with “Paid for by [Organization Name]” disclaimers. Agencies and political committees are responsible for ensuring their creative meets legal standards, but our platform ensures the delivery is transparent and compliant with digital publishing standards.
