Tips for creating an effective ad If you really want to create a great ad, it is highly recommended to follow the instructions below: Check out other people's listings. See how they are describing their items, particularly so if they are selling the same item as the one you are listing. Use a clear title which includes the name of the item you sell. Try to make your title appealing and eye-catching. Set an appropriate price for your item so that the advert is approved. If the price is not relevant, it may be declined. Make sure to carry out some investigation of the prices for a particular item. The description of your product must be informative enough and mustn�t contain any false information regarding your product or service. Upload only unique and high-quality photos of your items taken by yourself and not downloaded from the Internet. The better photos you add, the more attractive your ad looks to the potential buyers and the more calls you receive. Indicate correct contact details for the potential buyers/clients to be able to reach you easily. Try to respond all the incoming calls or to call back your customers once available. Try to fill out all the fields of your profile page, as well as those of your advert, to let your customers dispose of all the necessary information about you as a seller and the products you sell. The better rating / vote you have on our website, the more chances you get to attract a lot of buyers. Remember that it is important to build trust in your business. Your rating/vote depends on the number of positive/negative feedback received from your previous customers. Make your advert as risk-free as possible. Underline that no prepayments are required and be ready to list those delivery services which presuppose payment on the delivery of the product ordered.

Why my AD has been pending for a very long time.?
There are currently three advertising slots at the moment on Izzumes. Therefore, only three advertisers can place their ads on any
section of Izzumes at the same time. Once the six slots are full, any attempt to place ads on the same section by other advertisers will result in a pending placement. However, once a slot is vacated by an advertiser, the slot will be
handed over to the advertiser ascendingly and based on next priority"
Waiting time for an AD slot to be vacated?
We cannot say when an ad slot will be vacated because it depends entirely on what current advertisers choose to do.
While you're waiting for your AD placement to become active
Please resist the temptation to remove and then resubmit pending AD. If you do that, you will be placed at the very end of the queue.
