You can always hire a PR person to do this for you.\n\nOr you can follow the tips from the article "How to Increase Your Chances to Get Publicity"\n http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol151/publicity.htm \n\nSometimes, all it takes is one interview - and other media people will see you and would want to talk to you as well. \nI have recently interviewed the founder of a new magazine focusing on babies, and the article will be published in WomenHomeBusiness.com . I saw her being interviewed on a local TV channel and contacted her. What she did was to contact a reporter from that TV channel and pitched her story why she started the magazine. She had a wonderful back story and she was able to pitch it well. I got interested in her story and so contacted her to do an in-depth interview.\n\nYou need to be prepared, especially if you are on a time schedule during your travels. Contact the editors beforehand. Prepare your pitch - why you started this magazine (especially if you have such a great personal experience that prompted you to start the magazine). If you had done any previous interviews or if any writeups have been written about you, include that in your pitch. The better the story, the greater your chances to be featured.

Here are some steps to starting a magazine:\n\n1. Conceptualize your magazine - what is its editorial voice, what types of information should it have, who should it be for\n2. Determine how large (or small) your target audience - this can help you determine the viability of your idea. You don't want to start a magazine where only you and 2 friends would be interested in\n3. Decide your revenue model - should it be by subscription or should it be by advertising, or both\n4. Write your business plan to help you think through your idea\n5. Gather a team to help you create your magazine (ad sales, layout, editorial team, printing, etc.) and decide whether to outsource or do in-house some of the processes involved.\n6. Raise financing\n7. Start production\n\nI suggest you go through the following resources:\n\nMagazine Publishers of America http://www.magazine.org\nMagazineLaunch.com http://www.magazinelaunch.com\nThe Surviving Small Press http://www.laughingbear.com/magazine.htm \n\nSome books you need to read:\n\n- Launch Your Own Magazine: A Guide For Succeeding in Today's Marketplace by Samir Husni\n- The Magazine: Everything You Need to Know to Make It in the Magazine Business, by Leonard Mogel\n- The Magazine: From Cover to Cover, by Johnson, Sammye; Prijatel, Patricia \n- Career Opportunities in Magazine Publishing by \nMonti, Ralph \n- Starting and Running a Successful Newsletter or Magazine by Woodard, Cheryl

That's going to be hard to find.  By definition independant magazines don't have huge distribution.  You're not likely to find anything to your description.  Your best bet would be to check out some hip hop retail stores (clothing, music etc....) and get some leads from them as to what the good regional magazines are.  Then instead of spending a bunch of money advertizing in a mag with huge circulation spend smaller amounts advertizing in multiple regional mags.  \n\nNot to mention there are other ways to advertize on a budget esp in urban culture.  build a myspace site, go to local shows, do a stickering campaign where you canvas a city and put up stickers all over the place etc...  all very inexpensive and conducive to spreading the message by word of mouth.

I would first talk to people who have similar interests and websites, but not the same thing to offer. You could suggest that you both share links from one site to the other (s/he features yours, and you theirs). I would obviously talk to people who get lots of hits or have successful sites (and may not cost you a dime if they feel they have a good possibility of gaining profit from it). Doing this with someone in the same situation as yourself may help some, but it will be minimal - all relative to the traffic, of course. There are usually local papers and fliers where you can place ads for free, and that are distributed via snail mail, in Sunday News, etc.  There is always the option of mainstream advertisement, and local ads on television. If these suggestions aren't good for you, then I hope I at least got some of your creative juices flowing in a new direction, and you find something that works! Take care.

get a concept of what your magazine is about and who will be its base readership.\n\nput together a blank book with some original content in it. \n\nfind people that are willing to advertise in your magazine. \n\ngo to a printer and have it printed....content will be based on how much advertising you are able to achieve. \n\ngive your advertisers a copy of the magazine..now go out and get more advertisers so you can afford more content. \n\nquark xpress is a great program for layout.

god all we need is another one of those in America. I'm sure all you need is a business license. but try a underground mag first and then call the media radio etc let send them a copy see what they think about it.

First, get a lot of capital. Most magazines fail for lack of adequate capitalization.\n\nSecond, what makes your magazine distinctive? If you misunderstand the marketplace, you may not even get to a third issue.\n\nThird, do you want to see if a major publisher might be interested in the magazine?\n\nFourth, what about distribution? A good magazine means nothing if it can get out there
