A "Must Have" for any San Diego business |
|
| The
Enhanced Listing has proven to be our Most Effective text ad. |
| Your Enhanced Listing puts
you at the Top of your Category, above all Premium Linked and Free Listings. This
is a "searchable" listing, and has had the highest success rate of all our text
ads. The Enhanced Listing is at its best
when you have a website to link to. If you don't have a website, in order to get full
value from your Enhanced Listing, you need a Web Page
(Ad Page) such as the Billboard, Web Flyer, or Web Brochure.
This is the Internet, and If you aren't linked to at least BASIC INFORMATION beyond
your contact info, you probably will be passed over in favor of the advertiser with
more extensive information. |

You have a maximum of 3 lines for your text. The 20 words must fit on 3 lines. If
it does not fit, and/or you go over the 20-word limit, we will edit your text. First we

text if necessary. (Example: We offer a full line of affordable widgets and
whatnots becomes Full line of affordable widgets & whatnots).

| INFORMATION: |
Tips on Writing Your 20 Words of Text: |
| When writing your text, include your
"keywords" in the description so your business will come up in a "product
or service" search. Also, write it in such a way that it will entice the visitor to
click for more information. |
 |
| Example of a strong ad: Full Service Handyman. Affordable
carpentry, painting, plumbing, light electrical. Toilets, sinks, garbage disposals,
sprinkler system repair. Reliable, with references.
Example of a weak ad:
Handyman available for
small household projects. If you need it done, I can do it. Available Monday thru Friday.
Call me for an appointment.
BE SURE TO READ "RULES" |
|
|
| Spam Blockers / Adding your email address to your listing: |
| To keep the Internet Robots from reading
your email address for spam lists, we have a Spam Blocker available for a small fee of $5
per listing. There is a place on the order form where you can order the Spam Blocker. Information If you purchase a Spam Blocker and are listing in more than one category,
the Spam Blocker must be added to all your listings at $5 per listing. If you
have signed up for the 6-month trial, the $5 fee(s) is for the 6-month period only. |

WEB PAGES - BANNER ADS - TILE ADS
Why do I need a
Web Page? What can a Web Page do for me?
Customers want to know what you offer. This is the
Internet, and contact
information only just doesn't cut it. If you aren't linked to at least BASIC
INFORMATION, you will be bypassed. This will
make the difference.
