Now you can go on the Internet and post your ads for free. You cannot beat free, especially when it comes to advertising an item for sale, or a job that needs filled, or an item that is needed. No fees to pay; and that is good for everyone's budget. It is believed that about 90% of people that have the Internet will look online for their needs first.
There are benefits to using this type of advertising. One is that it is free, how many things can you say that about? The other is that if you are selling something you can list it and it can be seen in all states and in some cases globally.
People that are giving away things should not have to pay for ads anyways. One person's trash is another person's treasure as the saying goes. The person that needs or wants items can post how much they are willing to pay, and if someone has that item, they already know how much you will give them for it. This is an easy way to match people with items to people that want or need them. This is a great service that many people use.
As a person looking for work you can search all of the categories in the area for which you live and send your resume online. As someone posting ads to hire people, it will be seen by a targeted audience of people looking for work in your area. It will also be available to people that are moving to your area, and looking for work. This gives you almost unlimited hiring potential.
On places like E-bay you pay to sell your items, on the free websites there is no fee, no bidding, just set a price and wait for the e-mails or phone calls. That is easy to do, and many more people will see the ad, than would in your local paper. If you have items that you are looking for, you can post a free ad and someone may just have it for free or a minimal cost.
Having a PayPal account is a good idea if you sell many things. It gives an easy way for people to pay, and you are guaranteed to get your money. Plus the buyer is protected as well. You should also set up an e-mail account just for your postings. This way you will not get a bunch of mail in your main e-mail account.
Please be sure that if you are selling items that you list how you want to be paid like PayPal, money order, or check. If it is buy check or money order make it clear that the item will not be sent out until they clear. PayPal is the safest way to go.
The sites generally make their money off of click ads and other advertisements that they display on the pages of their website. They also make money by offering extra features at a fee such as posting a picture with your ad. Pictures can help to sell items so there are many that will pay the extra fee for this option. Posting in a color or in bold text is also often a pay option. - 15465
