Creating Your Ad

When creating your ad/s it is critical that you have the correct type and subtype listed for your bike. These are the criteria that your potential buyers will be searching under. If you don’t have the correct type and subtype the buyers will not find your bike advertisement. Below are some more tips that will make your ad clearer and easier to find.

Use describing words in your title and main description that a potential buyer could be interested in or may use as a Key Word Search for example "Dura-Ace"
Try to cover the following points in your description; Age, condition, brands and models of gears, wheels, brakes and tyre type
Bike size; If known, you should list the frame size and a recommend height for a suitable buyer.
Describe what the bike has been used for.
Describe what use the bike is suitable for.
List any extras that come with the bike. For example a bike computer, lights or lock.
Contact details; add as many contact details as you can. Different buyers often prefer different methods of contacting you.
Take a good photo of the bike, ensure that the sun is behind you when you take the photo and try to keep the bike within a neutral background.
