General Advertising Guidelines for Members
Updated - December 10th 2007 10:32 pm
Below are a list of general, good practice guidlines we would request users comply with when posting adverts on Bloogalu Classified.
-
Use multiple Adverts to promote multiple products
Single adverts should be used to promote single products or a group of similar products rather than an entire unrelated range. If you wish to advertise a range of differing products we would suggest that you post multiple adverts. Currently, users are allowed to post up to 10 free adverts per day.
-
Yes, you may include a link to your company website but...
You may include a link to your website, company and contact details in the advert description on the condition that the advert itself is for a specific products or service which must be clearly described and where appropriate, priced in the main body of the advert. Simply posting a website address on its own with no corresponding product or service will be seen as spam and removed.
-
When creating an advert, select the correct city to display your advert in.
The correct city (or your nearest city covered) must be selected when posting adverts that are region specific. This is particularly important for accommodation and property adverts. This is to prevent adverts specific to one particular city being inappropriately displayed in all 25 local Bloogalu websites. Users of Bloogalu Glasgow do not want to see London Flats in their own regional website.
Posting an advert to be displayed in any particular city will result in that advert being displayed in that local Bloogalu website and also automatically in the Bloogalu National website.
-
Select the option to 'display advert in all regional websites' when your advert is non-region specific.
When you wish to advertise an opportunity, product or service open to users nationwide we encourage users to select the option to ‘display ads in all regional websites’. Your advert will then display in 25 regional Bloogalu Classified sites as well as Bloogalu National.
We hope these guidelines help to improve the quality of the adverts viewable to the user and provide a much better response rate for members choosing to advertise with us.
