Creating a new keywords alert is like searching for ads using the advanced search form. You can set the frequency when the system will automatically search for your keywords criteria and send you a notification if new ads are found. Ads are considered as "new" if posted within the duration set by the frequency (e.g. if the frequency is 2 days, ads are considered "new" if posted within the last 2 days).

  • Chat notification settings enabled in your profile

  
  When can I receive a notification?
  You will receive the notification only if you are online in Yahoo Messenger at the time the notification is sent. If you are not online, then expect the notification through e-mail (if also enabled in your profile e-mail settings)

  Importance of this feature
  This new feature can help you close a possible transaction fast. Since the notification is being sent as soon as the post is submitted, it is highly probable that you can contact the sender as soon as you receive the notification because he is most probably still online and still thinking of your product/service. Fast response to inquiries regarding your items can also provide an added boost to your reputation as perceived by the customer.
