Water Well Journal—Print | Digital | Web
A powerful connection dedicated
to the groundwater industry
The water well market is distinct from other drilling industries, and no other
publication can serve you as well as Water Well Journal®—published by the
authoritative association in the groundwater field. Drillers come to WWJ
for information about water wells—not oil and gas, construction, mining,
or the environment. And for 70 years WWJ has been recognized as the
leading industry resource for business owners and decision-makers in
the water well industry.
With the backing of NGWA, the premier groundwater association, WWJ
provides exciting opportunities for advertising that are targeted directly
to over 24,000 print subscribers, 6,000-plus digital subscribers, and
2,000 monthly visitors to WaterWellJournal.com each month. Why spend
your advertising dollars with publications that only cover part of your target
market?
