Reach the person in the family who decides where the money goes.
Atash Media has written in Persian since 2015 for three groups of readers: Persian speakers living in Canada, those planning to come or already in the immigration process, and families whose children or close relatives are here as immigrants, students or workers. We cover immigration, housing, mortgages, the cost of living, events and travel — so our readers reach us while they are choosing a neighbourhood, a mortgage, a dentist, a school, a weekend. They are not browsing. They are deciding.
Before you choose:
All prices are subject to 13% HST. · Social media and newsletter bookings have a 13-week minimum; website banners can be booked for a shorter period. · We design your ad free of charge on a 13-week booking — for shorter bookings, please supply your own artwork. · We translate your ad into Persian at no extra cost.
Who you are reaching
The Persian-speaking community in Canada, and the people connected to it.
Most media kits lead with follower counts. A follower count tells you nothing about whether that person is your customer. What matters is why someone reads Atash.
Our readers are largely the established Persian-speaking community in Canada together with newcomers who have recently settled here — people working out where to live, what things cost, how to get a mortgage, which school, which clinic, what to do on the weekend. Those are a household's economic decisions, one after another, and the person who comes to Atash for the answer is usually the person in that family who makes them.
Living in Canada
Persian speakers already settled here, concentrated in the Greater Toronto Area. Our Atash Toronto channels are built for the GTA specifically.
On their way here
People planning to emigrate or already in the immigration process, researching Canada before they arrive and choosing their first suppliers from abroad.
Family of people here
Parents and relatives whose children are in Canada as immigrants, students or workers — often the ones paying, and often following the news from outside the country.
Professionals too
Real estate agents, mortgage brokers, lawyers and accountants serving this community read Atash as an industry source — useful if you sell to businesses, not only consumers.

Best for staying visible. Our readers return to the site repeatedly while they are working through a decision, and a banner is there every time they come back — which is how a name becomes familiar.
Content marketing
Published work that keeps earning attention long after a dated ad has gone.
Sponsored articles — a piece published under your own name, with an author page that builds up over time. See our contributors
Question & answer — readers ask, you answer in your field. See examples
Advertorials — a full introduction to a project, service or launch. See examples
Property listings — for real estate agents: your listing written up as a proper article and distributed across our channels. See an example
An article stays on the site, keeps arriving through search, and you can share it yourself indefinitely. Because this work carries our editorial name, we review each piece before publication.
Best for anyone whose service is chosen on expertise rather than price — mortgage brokers, real estate agents, lawyers, dentists, accountants, immigration consultants.
How it works
Three steps.
Tell us about your business. Email, WhatsApp or call us with what you do, who you want to reach, and roughly what you want to spend each month. A paragraph is enough.
We send you a proposal by email. Which channels we recommend, the schedule, the total cost and a start date — within one business day.
We design your ad and it goes live. Design is included free for the 13 weeks. If you already have artwork, send it and we will check the sizes.
Questions
Answered before you have to ask.
Why is there a 13-week minimum?
It applies to social media and the newsletter, because shorter runs there do not work and we would rather tell you that than take the money. People come to recognise a name by seeing it repeatedly over a season; one or two weeks reaches roughly the same people a handful of times and achieves very little. Website banners are different — those you can book for a shorter period, though we only produce the design for you on a 13-week booking.
Is tax included in these prices?
No. All prices on this page are subject to 13% HST.
My ad is in English. Can you advertise in Persian?
Yes — and we recommend it, since our entire audience reads Persian. We translate your ad into Persian for you at no extra charge.
Do I need to supply the artwork?
Not on a 13-week booking — we design your ad for you, free of charge. For shorter website bookings we ask you to supply your own artwork. Either way, send us anything you already have and we will check it fits the sizes.
Can I change my ad during the campaign?
Small changes — a phone number, an address, a price — are free, because they do not need the design to be redone. A new design during the campaign is possible, but it is charged separately. Tell us what you need and we will quote before doing anything.
Do you work with real estate agents and mortgage brokers?
Extensively. Housing and mortgages are among our most-read subjects, and a large part of our audience is either buying a home or advising someone who is. We can also write up individual property listings as articles — see the content marketing section above.
