Properly formatted title also improves page rank while search engines crawl our classified.
Attach at list one image to your free classified. Ads with attached images usually attract more attention from buyers. Show off your item by attaching up to 5 images. If you have an online image, then provide a URL link to it during ad placement. Note: Online image would not have a thumbnail on an ad display page.
