Start with what people need to know
A good listing quickly explains what is being offered, where it is and its condition. Avoid generic titles such as “unmissable opportunity” and describe the product or service directly.
Include dimensions, condition, delivery options, availability and any important limitation. Clarity reduces repeated questions and prevents mismatched expectations.
Use photos that show the real condition
Take photos in a well-lit place, keep the subject in focus and show different angles. If there are marks or defects, include a photo and explain them in the description.
- Use the clearest image as the cover.
- Avoid screenshots, confusing collages and excessive text over images.
- Do not publish documents, licence plates, home addresses or other personal data.
Set a sensible price and reply calmly
Compare similar offers in your country and say whether the price is fixed or negotiable. Reply without pressure and confirm every detail before arranging payment or delivery.
Promoted placements increase listing visibility, but they do not guarantee a sale, a number of contacts or a closing time.
