    Ad lifecycle: from preparation to removal

    Ad lifecycle: from preparation to removal

    How an ad travels on obyava.org

    Every listing on the platform goes through several stages. Understanding these stages helps sellers and buyers use the service more effectively and avoid common mistakes.

    1. Preparation

    Before publishing, gather accurate information: category, title, description, photos, price, city, and contacts. The more complete and honest the data, the faster you will find a buyer. Make sure the description matches the actual condition of the item or service.

    2. Publication

    Posting a basic ad is free. Choose the right category and fill in all required fields. After submission, the ad enters a review queue.

    3. Moderation

    To maintain platform quality, we review ads. This usually takes a short time. If everything is fine, the ad becomes visible in search. In case of violations, you will receive a notification with an explanation.

    4. Search visibility

    Once approved, the ad appears in search results and category pages. Its position depends on the completeness of the description, relevance, and the author's activity. Regularly update the information to keep the ad relevant.

    5. Messaging

    When a buyer shows interest, you will receive a message via the built-in messenger. Respond quickly and politely. Agree on deal details, but be cautious: do not share unnecessary personal information until you verify the reliability of the other party.

    6. Completion and removal

    After selling or providing a service, be sure to remove the ad. This frees up space and does not mislead other users. You can also mark the ad as sold if such an option is available.

    Author responsibility

    You are responsible for the accuracy and relevance of the information. Outdated or misleading ads harm the experience of all users and may lead to restrictions. Keep track of your listings and make changes in a timely manner.
