Enhancing Your Ad Gives It More Visibility

Simply put, the more people who see your ad, the better results you will get. Enhancing your ad or upgrading it increases the likelihood that your ad will be seen by more people.

There are several ways you can enhance your ad.

  • Add e-Commerce - Now you can have e-commerce attached to your online ads! OHGetIt.com is pleased to offer our customers the opportunity to add PayPal directly into their ads. PayPal is the safest and easiest way to get paid - funds can be deposited into your PayPal account or even into your bank account. While OHGetIt.com does not charge a fee to integrate e-commerce with your ad, some charges may apply to the PayPal transaction. Be sure to visit PayPal for more information.
  • Add Photos - a picture is worth a thousand words. People are more likely to contact you with a serious offer when they can see just how fantastic your stuff is.
  • Make sure that your text is as descriptive as possible - all ads on OHGetIt.com have a maximum of 750 words. Be sure to use clear and explicit language to describe your stuff. If people can't determine what you're selling, they'll be less likely to click on your ad.
  • Link your ad to your Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, or other social networking site - now, this is a special OHGetIt.com feature that you won't find on other FREE Classified web sites. From your account, whenever you Preview your ad, just click on the ShareThis button to include your ad on your social networking profile page. We currently support sharing to contacts on MySpace, Facebook, AIM, and email, as well as several other social Web sites.
