give. World
Music List provides many free classified Ads. It is
part of our vision to be a help to people in the music
industry and individuals selling musical instruments
with free ads, acting as a catalyst in the industry.
Our Highlighted and Rated ads help us to pay for the cost involved.
Highlighted free
posts:
Free posts can be upgraded to a highlighted listing.
This puts your ad, with other highlighted ads, at the top of
each list that your ad appears on.
Highlighted ads are
subject to "Rated Posts" as to where they appear
in the hierarchy.
Highlighted free posts: $10.00
(per year)=
Highlighting Ad Service (highlighting is
available at the bottom of each Ad click the line
"Highlight this ad (for ad owner)" also on the form when
you place a new Ad.)
Rated Posts:
What is ad rating and how does it
work?
If there are 100 ads in the category that your listing
appears in and 10 of the ad owners have their ads
highlighted these 10 ads will appear at the top of the
ad list on the first page (currently we display 20 ads
per page). Ads are arranged according to the posted date
in almost all cases the newer ads appear at the top. The
older the ad the father down the list it will appear.
Highlighted ads can be rated with ratings from 1 to 10;
ten is the highest rating, one the lowest. If there are
20 or more highlighted ads without rates and you apply
for a 1 rating your ad will move to the top of the list
and stay there if no higher rated ads are present.
If some of the ads have ratings from 1 to 5, you will
need a 6 rating to move to the top of the list. If the
top rated ad is 9 you will need a 10 rate. Remember
even rated ads are subject to the ad post date in their
rate section. Ad ratings
can be made for 30 days at a time. If you apply for a
higher rating during those 30 days your new rate takes
over (applies) and starts a new 30 days. After the
rating period expires ads revert back to the original
highlighted ad for the remainder of the ads original
term (the term is currently 12 months of highlight
time).
