STEP 6 The title of your ad is very important, make sure it's right and catchy. Some memberships allow the use of search engine "friendly URL" (not shown here). Do not enter it as "www.website.com", the system does not allow "dots", use "keyword-keyword" instead. Sometimes we allow you to place your ad in several categories, in this case you can select a second category in the "Categories" window. For example, your fishing kayak could be used as a recreational kayak as well so this would make it apprear in both fishing and recreational kayak categories. The short description will only appear in the listing results, keep it short.
DO NOT forget to enter the main description here! If you do not, nothing will appear in your listing page, this is what other people will see in your listing.
Keywords are not required but important, this will help your ad to be found by Google and other search engine. The first keyword should match your title and is the most important. |
