It's as simple as 1, 2, 3... 1. Make sure your ad has a catchy title. 2. Make sure it has a description (we recommend 100+ characters) in its body and not just hyperlinks or URLs. Keep in mind that ads with relevant keywords in their descriptions are more likely to come up in search results. 3. It's highly recommended that you upload at least one image with your ad. The image will be used as a thumbnail preview in the listings. Ads with thumbnail previews tend to get more visits.
If you're posting a banner ad it's advisable that your image is 728 x 90 or as close to 728 x 90 as possible. Keep in mind that the quality of your image will determine how many click-throughs your banner ad will get, so make sure your image is not fuzzy or distorted. As a rule, high quality banner ads receive more clicks.
Please, ensure each image is under 9 MB and in .gif, .png, .jpeg, .webp or .bmp format.
Your ads can be in any language.

All charges for paid advertising are made in US dollars (USD $).
The paid advertising will take effect as soon as you complete your payment. It's an automated process that only takes a couple seconds. However, this does not apply to e-check payments (see "PayPal E-Check Payments" below).
If you posted a paid ad using an e-Check, your paid advertising will take effect as soon as your e-Check is cleared. Usually, it takes up to 4 days for e-Checks to get cleared. This is an automated process, no further actions are required on your part.
The answer is no. We do not have any hidden fees or recurring charges. When your paid ad expires the only person that can renew and pay for it again is you.
If you authorize a payment using your balance, credit or debit card, but your charge is rejected, your paid advertising will not take effect until a new / valid form of payment is used to pay for your ad. You can submit a new payment through your account using the Upgrade button. If you do not have an account with us, you can sign up here. Use the same email address for your new account that you used to post your ads with. All your ads (active or expired) will be in your new account. You can easily edit, renew, upgrade or delete your ads through your account.
Your confirmation email also includes the option to upgrade your ad.
