New classified upgrade option: eBrandon front page
1/15/2016 at 9:45 AM
Folks that use the classifieds will know that we've had two optional upgrades that you can have applied to an ad to get more exposure. They've been quite popular, with the available space on the main classified page being consistently sold out and my getting frequent requests for more options.
I'm excited to share this morning that I've been able to arrange for a very visible section of the high traffic main eBrandon.ca front page to be available as a new third upgrade option (I've added a picture to this thread to show the location). This is setup as premium exposure that uses a large picture from your ad to grab the user's attention when they're browsing the front page. In order to make sure that there is good value for those that buy this upgrade, I've limited it to there being only 12 available per week to purchase so that you aren't sharing space with too many other ads... Cost being $19.99 plus gst. Whenever the front page loads, those (up to) 12 upgraded ads are chose in random order and rotated through in a slideshow format.
I imagine it'll be most ideal for ads such as homes, cars, jobs, services and bigger ticket items much like the other upgrade options... But it can be applied to any ad in any category.
The option is now available on the ad submission page. You can also login to an existing ad you've already posted to apply an upgrade.
