What is adflyer?

Simply put, adflyer.co.uk is a classifieds website. 'Is that all?' I hear you cry. No, that's not all. We're a classified website that has been designed to fill a gap in the market. We combine the best attributes of classified ads with all the benefits of shopping websites. If you're not exactly clued-up with either classifieds or shopping websites, all this means is that we've made sure that looking for your dream motorbike, your ideal pet ad, or just a great deal on property ads is as easy and enjoyable as possible.

Why use adflyer?

With so many other classified and shopping websites available, we know that our own site has to be very, very good to stop you from hastily clicking away.

So, here are the reasons we think you should stick with us...

First of all, with adflyer, what you see is what you get. You won't find your search for used cars bogged down with third party adverts for anything except what you're actually looking for. Plus, we don't list business opportunities, services or personals. So, in short, the only things you'll find listed on adflyer are real, tangible items for sale.

As mentioned before, we have taken some of the best attributes of shopping websites to make adflyer the best it can possibly be. This means that we have the same depth of categories as most of these sites, with over three thousand sections, categories and sub-categories to help you find where your perfect product will be. We have also included a compare function: so, if you're torn between two great-looking second hand televisions, or two very cute puppies for sale, you can compare every aspect of their listings to find out which one is right for you.

If you've ever been baffled by the searching process on other websites, or have struggled to specify exactly what you want, adflyer can solve these problems. Thanks to our very intelligent search panel, you can type in just a few letters of your ideal product, and it'll generate a whole list of possibilities. You can also narrow down your search by specifying whether you're looking for just used items, only new ones, or if you're not particularly fussy, you can search for both.

For users looking to get information on many of today's pets, be sure to check out the adflyer pet information guide. Here you will find loads of info on dog breeds, cat breeds, horse breeds, bird species, rat breeds and reptiles.

Tips and Help/Advice

For those of you who are new to adflyer or to listings websites in general, you may be feeling a bit confused about exactly what to do and what to consider when searching for your ideal product. So, here are a few handy hints we've come up with to make your experience on adflyer easy, fun and productive.

1. Read the listing.
   This might sound pretty obvious, but it's absolutely vital to make sure you know exactly what you're getting. After all, you don't want to turn up to collect your new kitten, only to find out you've actually agreed to take home six!
2. Check the price.
   When looking at an item's price, make sure whether it's within your budget, what's included in it, and what extra costs you might have to incur. These could include tax, MOT and repairs for cars and motorcycles; furniture or bills for a house ad; or vet bills and special food for pets.
3. Check the product's condition.
   Knowing whether the product you're looking at is used or new just isn't enough. If it's a car or a van ad, how many previous owners have there been? If it's home or garden furniture, has it been scratched, scraped or dropped? Make sure you find out as much as you can, so you know exactly what to expect come delivery or collection day.
4. What are the delivery or collection costs?
   An awful lot of the products listed on adflyer wouldn't fit too easily into an envelope, so make sure you take the costs of delivery or collection into consideration. Remember: the price of the listing isn't often the end of the costs.
5. Contact the seller.
   Buying some of the products you'll find on adflyer is a big deal. After all, buying a new pony, a flat for sale or a van for your new business venture are not decisions to be taken lightly. So, if you're in any doubt at all about the product you're interested in, use the contact information provided to contact the seller directly and ask what you need to ask. At adflyer, we've worked hard to make this experience as straightforward and helpful as possible, so all you have to do is make the most of it!

For those with something to sell, and looking for somewhere to sell it, adflyer is a great place to start. But if you're new to the site, you'll probably be unaware of how we work, what we do and why you should get involved.

So, to help you get started, we've answered the three big questions you'll probably be asking if you're a first-time visitor to adflyer.

Who can advertise on adflyer?

In a word: anyone. Whether you want to place just one advert to sell your car, or you're looking to sell your flat, adflyer can help, as you can place as many, or as few, adverts as you want. Plus, if you're a shop owner, estate agent, online retailer or car dealership our new merchant network can help you to showcase your wares to a wider audience, and ultimately help increase your sales.

Why advertise on adflyer?

Of course, just because anyone could become a seller on adflyer, doesn't instantly mean that anyone would! So, we've designed our website so thoroughly that there are loads of reasons why you should advertise with us. Just pick your favourite!

At adflyer, we're all such lovely people that we've made it completely free to place an ad which will remain live for fourteen days.

Advertising on adflyer also makes great sense because you can reach so many people so quickly.

So, not only is adflyer cheaper than traditional advertising, it's also incredibly efficient and effective in reaching the widest possible customer base.

Another great reason to sell on adflyer is that we're a fairly accepting bunch. With over three thousand categories for listed products, you'll find the same depth here as you will on the largest shopping sites. So, whether you've been looking for somewhere to sell puppies, or you're a trader in all things weird and wonderful, you'll find a place for your product with us!

How do get I started as a seller on adflyer?

When you arrive at the adflyer home page, click on the place an advert link in the top right-hand corner. From there, it's just three easy steps to get your ad up and running. First, you'll need to find the right category: you can either enter what you're looking to sell and choose from a number of possible options, or simply choose manually from our drop-down menu. You'll then see a form pop up with details appropriate to your product to fill in.

In step two you can also choose from our range of optional extras, such as additional photos on top of your first free picture, which will help to make your product look more attractive.
