New Options when Sending Messages

posted on: 2008-06-17

Today we have added a few new options to the messaging feature within each classified ad.

As before, you are still required to be Signed In prior to sending a message.

With this update, you now have the option to automatically include either your Email Address, your Phone Number, or Both when you send a message to a classified ad that has been posted to the site.

Why is this Important!

This new feature makes communication between buyer and seller easier by allowing the potential Buyer to include more contact information.

At the same time, we have made this feature optional in order to ensure that we are protecting the privacy of all of our users.

Direct Ad Link in Emails

Also new today is the inclusion of a direct link to your classified ad in the body of every email that goes out.

Please let us know if you have any questions on these new features.

Ads related to business services

posted on: 2008-05-20

Hello,

Again this is an announcement for ads related to businesses and their services.

Effective immediately, all ads related to business services can be posted for a fee of $19.95 per and ad and good for a maximum of 31 days. However, these ads will only be allowed in the Employment: Work Wanted category. All business service ads that have been paid for, but not posted in the Work Wanted category will be moved there without notice. All ads that have not been paid for will be rejected and payment requested if you wish the ad to be listed.

Additionally, we have placed some restrictions on these ads and you will not be able to pay for the Front Page rotation feature on these ads.

Please note that this does not effect any existing ads - only newly placed ones with a posting date 5/21/08.

This does not affect any normal commercial ad that is advertising a product for sale - such as a car, house, boat, etc.

Thank you,

BisManOnline.com Staff

Changes to Employment: Work Wanted

posted on: 2008-04-22

BismanOnline is making a change in the Work Wanted category.   Customers:

If you are looking for someone to provide a service, visit the homepage for the new Services Directory.  You’ll find names, addresses, phone numbers, plus much more information to help you determine if the provider is the right one for you.

 Businesses: 

Starting May 15, 2008, the requirement for a $19.95 Commercial Upgrade fee will be strictly enforced for any business that posts an ad in the Work Wanted category.  We are now offering an upgraded section of BismanOnline designed specifically for businesses called the Services Directory.  Not only can you place text explaining your business or service, but you can add logos, pictures, links to other web sites, testimonials, maps, etc.  You get a “Landing Page”, similar to a small web page that can be filled with appropriate information of your choice, and updated when you want.  It’s like a display ad, but with more information, flexibility, and effectiveness.  At an annual cost of $275 for small businesses with less than 2 full time year round employees, and $550 for larger businesses, it’s great exposure at an affordable rate.  Click here to fill out a form to get included in the Services Directory.

If you are a non-profit group or a non-professional, click here to contact us and find out if you qualify to list in the Work Wanted category as a non-business.

Thank you for you continued support!

Automobile Ad Posting Updated!

posted on: 2008-04-08

Over the last several months we have realized that our search feature couldn't be utilized to the best of its capabilities especially in relation to the automotive categories. Because many of the fields of the ad placement were completely free text field  - meaning users could put anything they wanted in the field - this limited the capabilities of our search tool. For example if I was selling a 2001 Chevy HD 1500 - I might enter various parts of my automobile in the title, description, make and model fields. This caused issues in the search function as users wouldn't know what terms were used in the ad itself. An example would be if I searched for 2001 Chevrolet it would not include my ad based on my title previously described.

We have recently added dropdown lists for the make and model fields for the automobile category to help users using the search feature more accurately find what they are looking for and to elimate the problem described above. We are notifying you of this so that you can be aware of this new feature when placing ads but also to advise users that have placed automobile ads within the last 31 days to please modify their existing ads with the new dropdown lists so that when we make the dropdown lists available in the search feature it will work with the existing ads.  If you do not update your ad users may not be able to find your vehicle in the new search tool.The dropdowns will be added to the search feature within the next couple of days.

We will continue to implement the dropdowns in other categories as we see fit.

Thank you for you continued support and as always we appreciate your feedback on any site enhancements.
