How do I advertise at www.for-sale-locally.com ?
The easiest and fastest way (usually uploaded within 24 hrs) is by E-mail to
fsl@for-sale-locally-northbay.com
Just E-mail what you are selling, buying, trading, etc. Include a contact name and phone number. It is very fast and easy to copy & paste your text from your E-mail into the proper place. As well you can send pictures as an attachment and we will include them free with your ad. The least effective way to get information to us is by plain old mail because it takes longer to get here.

Nothing is free, so what's the catch?
Sponsors pay an advertising fee to us to keep this site alive and attract customers. Imagine that there are 2,500 items for sale, trade, wanted, etc. on www.for-sale-locally.com. Imagine that the site gets 3,500 "hits" per day. Some visitors will click on the sponsors banner or better yet, some visitor's to this site will actually go to the sponsor's site, store or business. When sponsors get business because this site brought them exposure, sponsors are more than willing to pay the small advertising fee we charge. It is a win win situation for everyone.

Why would you sponsor for-sale-locally.com?
Any exposure to a small or large business is good for business. Starting at only $50 per year you can have your business banner on a for-sale-locally.com site. This represents low cost for a long term exposure. For less than $2 per day you can be a main sponsor and have multiple banners, ads, etc. Why pay to have your own web site when you can have a full page and multiple banners with us like this sponsor:

What if the item is still posted, yet the item is sold or no contact available?
Please inform us immediately (705-663-2696 or e-mail) and we will remove the AD.

How do you get sponsors to pay for this site?
A good salesperson will prove to the sponsors that spending their money with us advertising, with strategically placed banners and logos will increase their exposure and business.
Even without a sales call sponsors can recognize a good opportunity and come to us on their own. There is no aggressive high cost selling involved here. The benefits to the sponsor are there, the cost is low and there is an opportunity for free advertising. It is a win win solution again for the customer, for the sponsor, and for the for-sale-locally.com site.
|
Why is there a limit of one FREE AD per month per household?
This is to prevent abuse and it allows everyone in the area covered to place one free AD. People can place more than one ad and it is at the discretion of the webmaster as to how much volume is there before a limitation is enforced. Generally people are considerate of others and there is no problem.
