Tips and ticks to increase your chances of selling

| buy and sell | November 8, 2011

Sometimes a seller might have a hard time selling an item. We have gathered a list of tricks and tips to help you increase your chances.

1- Make sure your Title is Catchy. Avoid using exclamation marks (!!!!) or tilts (~~~) in your title. A good title describes your item in couple of words only. But don’t make it too short. For example: Instead of “White sofa for sale!!” try something like “3 Seaters white sofa in great condition”. Titles are very important because this is the first impression a buyer will have on your ad.

2- Describe your item as much as you can. A Good Description is the heart of your ad. Describe how old it is, its condition, what exactly are you selling. A buyer usually wants to know as much as they can about your item. If you are selling an electronic device, feel free to look up its specs on google and copy paste the description.

3- Add at least 1 Image of your item. A seller wants to see what they are buying! Did you know that you can upload up to 4 images on your ad? You should definitely use this feature and upload 4 different pictures of what you are selling. This always encourages buyers.

4- Insert some TAGS in your ad! What are tags? Tags are key words related to your ad. Why is this important? For the simple reason that search engines such as google LOVE tags. Try to insert as many tags as you can related to your item. Make sure you use a coma between each key word you put, example: “car, vehicle, toyota, camry, black toyota, 2010 toyota”. Note that when you post an ad on KingdomSale, it usually gets indexed on google within 48 hours. With more tags and keywords, google will index your ad and some of the keywords you put, giving you more chances to be found. See image on right to see where to ad your TAGS.

5- Check your Junk Mail or make sure you put your phone number in your ad. Some people try to contact you by using the contact form KingdomSale offers. However, sometimes, the email gets sent to your Junk Mail, so make sure you put us on your safelist.

6- SHARE your ad ! Once your ad is posted, notice in the bottom of your ad many social media buttons appearing. Use these buttons to share your ad directly to your facebook account, twitter account or simply share your ad by email to your friends and family and ask them to forward your ad to their friends and family. The more people you get to visit your ad, the higher the odds you get to sell your item.

7- Repost your ad after a week or two. Try using a different title, better description, different pictures etc.

We will try to update our list occasionally. This post will be open for comments upon approval of the administrator.  Feel free to share your tip or to ask questions. Good luck !

Watch out for sketchy iPhone 4s, Blackberry, Samsung Tab ads

| buy and sell | October 10, 2011

Since the release of the iPhone 4s, many frauders are trying to post ads on many classified sites. Many will even offer you to buy 2 and get 1 for free. Others will list all prices for many hot devices at ridiculous prices. Their tactic is to ask you to wire them the money, promising you that they will mail you your iphone 4s in the mail within weeks. Result: You get frauded and lose your money.

What is KingdomSale doing about this?
What sets us apart  from other classified ads websites in Saudi Arabia is that we filter our ads daily and delete all fraudulent ads. We also block many IP addresses originating from countries like Nigeria (Known for its high rate of Fraud). However, we always ask you to be vigilent and only deal locally (Read our post on Being Safe and Vigilent).

Stay Safe – Be Vigilent

| buy and sell | August 13, 2011

The vast majority of people you meet online are genuine. People successfully trade locally, with someone they met through KingdomSale.com, regularly. However, just like the “real” world, there is also some immoral people online. To help you stay safer, this page contains our very simple safety advice and help.

Above all, remember KingdomSale.com is a local site. Trading locally in-person is a simple way to stay on the safe side.

1. Never provide any personal and/or banking information.

Do not give out personal, Iqama numner, credit card or online account details (e.g. bank account number) over the Internet/email. We advise only buying and selling with people you can meet. Fraudsters usually get caught meeting people, so they usually go out of their way not to meet you.

2. Never send or wire money to sellers or buyers.

This includes never mailing a cheque or using payment services like Western Union or Money Gram to pay for items found on KingdomSale.com.

3. Remember, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Especially when deal seems too good to be true, price is too low etc… Be careful when buying expensive items like mobile phones, laptops, plasma tvs, cars etc…

4. KingdomSale.com does not offer any sort of buyer protection or payment programs.

KingdomSale.com does not act as an intermediary and does not make arrangements for any payments or transactions. If you are contacted by someone who claims to be from KingdomSale.com and you are asked to transfer money for an item for sale, this will be an illegitimate request and any emails you receive of this type will also be fraudulent. DO NOT, under any circumstance, follow any of the instructions contained within the email or given over the phone. If you receive any emails promoting these services, please immediately report it to us.
