  • What are duration and times exposure?

    Duration is the length of time when your advertisement is included in our Premium Listing. It means that your advertisement will be displayed in the Category Listing and Search Result Listing pages within the allotted duration.

    Times Exposure (also known as Slots) is equivalent to the amount of exposure that your advertisement will get. For example, if you purchased 5 times exposures, it means that your advertisement will get 5 times the exposure that you will get if you buy only 1. It also defines your advertisement ranking when displayed at the top of all Premium Listing ads.  Therefore, the more times exposure you purchase, the higher ranking your ads will get.

  • How are Premium Listing ads ranked in category listings?

    Premium Listing ads are always ranked higher than regular ads. However, among other premium listing ads, those with more number of exposure have higher ranking in the listing.

  • How are Premium Listing ads displayed in search result listings?

    Relevant Premium Listing advertisements are being displayed at the top of search result listings.  The Premium Listing advertisement displayed depends on the following:

    • Relevance of the Premium Listing advertisement with the search keywords (required)
    • The number of exposure the advertisement currently has

    Therefore, the higher the relevance of the Premium Listing advertisement to the search keywords and the more exposure purchased, the higher is the probability that the Premium Listing ad is to be displayed at the top of search result listings.

    Note that there is a possibility for non-Premium Listing ads to rank higher than Premium Listing ads in cases where these ads are way more relevant to the search keywords than the Premium Listing ads.  For 2 ads with similar relevance to the search keywords, the number of exposure dictates the ranking of the ads.

  • How will you know if your ad is already included in the Premium Listing?

    To check and manage your Premium Listing ads, follow these steps:

    1. While signed in, mouse over Member Menu on top of the page, mouse over Classified Ads, then click Premium Listings.
    2. The page will then display the list of your advertisements under Premium Listing.
  • Why did your Premium Listing advertisement become an ordinary advertisement after you edited it?

    When you edit an advertisement, our internal search engine will re-index it. Re-indexing causes the Premium Listing rank to be temporarily reset to zero. After a while, our indexer will re-establish your ad’s original Premium Listing ranking. This process takes about 5 minutes, so expect your advertisement to become an ordinary listing for 5 minutes after editing it, before it is placed back under the Premium Listing.

  • What happens if you submit the same advertisement for Premium Listing even if it hasn't reached its expiration date yet?

    The counting of your Premium Listing duration will start from the day it was included in our Premium Listing. So even if the Premium Listing ads are the same, they would have different deadlines because the ad duration will still depend on the day it was processed.

    For the overlapping dates of your advertisement, the exposure will be added. For example, Ad ID xxxxx is included in our Premium Listing from January 1, 2010 until January 31, 2010 while Ad ID yyyyy from January 15, 2010 until February 15, 2010. This simply means that your advertisement's exposure will be added from January 15-31, 2010.

  • What happens when the ad you submitted for Premium Listing has been reported as a violation?

    Users who have Premium Listing ads which are, and in the future has been found out to be, in violation of our terms and conditions will be removed from our Premium Listing and will NOT receive a refund. As stated in our rules, we have a no refund policy for the rule benders. Click here for more info.

  • More details about Premium Listing
    1. Premium Listing Ads are being displayed first before other non-Premium Listing advertisements (higher exposure) in related Category Ads Listing pages.
    2. Ads included in Premium Listing are being ranked according to number of exposure, with more exposure purchased being given higher ranking at the top.
    3. You are allowed to purchase any number of Premium Listing exposure for your advertisement. The more exposure purchased, the higher the ranking a at the top of Ads Listing pages.  You are allowed to purchase more exposure for the same advertisement even you have already purchased before.  The new purchase will increase the visibility of your advertisement and the new purchased exposure will have separate expiration from the other purchased exposure (e.g. 10 times exposure purchased yesterday and 5 time exposure purchased today will mean a total of 15 times exposure for the advertisement).
    4. Your advertisement will be displayed at the top of all related Category Ads Listing Pages. For example, if your advertisement is posted in Air Conditioning and Heating, then it will be displayed at the top for the following related Ads Listing pages: All Categories, Buy and Sell, Appliances, and Air Conditioning and Heating.
    5. Relevant Premium Listing ads are being displayed at the top of search results pages. Your advertisement can be displayed at the top if your advertisement is relevant to the search keywords or part of the normal search result list (using the related search keywords and filters). So if your advertisement is about iPhones and someone searched for "iphone" then your advertisement can be at the top in the list (ranking also depends on the numbe of exposure purchased).  There is a possibility that the Premium Listing advertisement not to be displayed at the top most positions if other non-Premium Listing ads are way more relevant to the search keywords than the Premium Listing ad.
