Let's Get Your Ad Noticed!

1. Make good use of the title! The title information will be picked up by the search engines. State what your are marketing in the title. Good examples are "Paint 2yr Old Filly For Sale" or "Farrier in Southern Montana" Bad examples would be vague, like "Great Trot", or "KidProof". Identify what you are selling and promote it!



2. Your contact information: If you don't put it in, the prospective customer won't see it. This is good and bad, and is truly a personal issue. However, if you do enter your phone number when you register, it WILL be displayed. Be sure this is what you want. Otherwise the prospective buyer will be able to reach you via the automated email system on The Horse Marketer. Be sure and check this email address regularly. You don't want to miss anything!



3. If you have decent photos, let's use them! Try and keep your photos within 200 pixels High by 400 pixels Wide. If you don't know what this means, send us an email. Just click on contact us and send us your question. We're happy to help, but it may take up to 48 hours for a response. If you want a faster response, go to the message board. People there love to help!



4. Try to find a GOOD conformation photo of your horse. The horse should be standing on level ground, without weeds and brush in the way, and standing as square as possible. Make sure the neck isn't turned or in an artificial position. Relaxed is best! You can use up to 4 photos, so maybe a couple action shots and one under saddle if possible. If you're selling equipment, again, make it easy for a buyer to like what you're selling - CLEAN is good! Try to get the best photos possible. Pictures DO SELL!!



5. Be descriptive in your description! Again, think of how you'd describe the item or service you're marketing to a friend.

Best of Luck and Here's Hoping For A Fast Sale!
