As newspapers die (think Ponty Observer and Western Mail) and social media takes over the web (for good or bad) we’ve decided to stop updating this page. Feel free to post an advert to your local business on the Facebook board though.
If you do use any of the services listed here though, please don’t forget to mention you saw the business advertised on the Ponty Town web site – www.pontytown.co.uk
