question on Sponsor Featured Areas

[ajmasters]

in the Real Estate Directory you can pay to move upwards on the list and you can also "Sponsor Featured Areas". What does "Sponsor Featured Areas" means? What do you get in your ad? where does your info (web link etc) get posted?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Mario,

welcome to the forums! I saw you sponsored your category - thank you for your support.

Featured areas option allows you to represent chosen areas exclusively. For example you choose Tampa - it will appear on the main page of the diretory under the featured areas block and under Florida category on each page on the left hand side in the same block, but only with the other Florida areas (if any). You provide extensive description/content for the area and your services and I will insert it into your listing detail page - this way anytime someone clicks on the Tampa area from the main page or any Florida category pages - it will open up your listing detail page with your content and with your direct link to the web site. You can include links to your own internal pages that would support your content.

Here are examples (look on the right hand side]:
New Jersey
Missoury
South Carolina

You can feature up to 3 areas, and the content will be placed on the same listing detail page. The content is very important - our directory is getting pretty strong and those pages attract direct traffic from the search engines - check out the following posts of mine:

You can provide your content and I will insert it for free, althouhg it won't be exclusively featured on the main page and under your category it still can bring you quality traffic in a long run. Also in paid option there are won't be any google ads on your page.

Let me know if you have any questions
