Yacht With Car-Only
Use Pay Per Click Classified Ads To Sell Real Estate, Yachts, Etc
Want to sell your yacht, exotic car or unique piece of real estate (or anything else for that matter) your self and save thousands of dollars on commission? Here is how one of the customers at myFlexads.com did it!
myFlexads.com has now implemented a pay per click program so that their users can have their classified ads linked to a pay per click ad in Google. They offer 2 pay per click programs that make it easy to have the ad for the item you are selling appear when doing a search from a search engine such as Google. One of their customers sold his $150,000 sailboat this way. It is a great way to save thousands (if not tens of thousands) of dollars in commission - whether it be for real estate, yachts or cars.
Using one of the pay per click programs is best when you are selling an item that is somewhat unique or may have buyers searching for that item by manufacturer, model or item description. The sailboat described in our example on our website was a model known as a ‘Caliber 40', so the ad was set up in Google so that when someone searched for the keyword ‘Caliber 40' his ad would appear. When clicked on the prospective buyer would be taken directly to his classified ad describing his Caliber 40 sailboat along with his contact information. However you would not want to advertise a 'Ford Mustang' in this way, you would get far too many unwanted clicks. But advertising a 'Ford Mustang Shelby' may be appropriate. In this case you could choose to have the ad only displayed to users within a certain number of miles of your location to minimize clicks from buyers that may not purchase your item. But for a $150,000 sailboat it is best to advertise the item nationwide – or in his case worldwide. The 2 pay per click programs myFlexads offer are:
- You can have myFlexads set up and monitor the ad for you (for a fee that is much less than competitors). This is best for those that are not very computer literate – or just don't have the time to set up the ad and perform the monitoring. You can enter preferences for keywords, ad title etc if you like, or let myFlexads do all of the setup. Then they will monitor the ad daily and adjust the keywords and other setup as needed to maximize the effectiveness of the ad. All of the statistics for the performance of the ad are online for you to view and you can quit at any time. Some users choose to have myFlexads do the setup and monitoring for a month or two until they are happy with the performance of the ad, then they quit, have myFlexads send them the setup details and they set up the ad on their own account. myFlexads receives absolutely no compensation for any charges paid to Google – just the charges for setup and monitoring.
- The other pay per click program that is offered is that myFlexads will send you detailed instructions on how to set up your own Google pay per click ad that is linked to the classified ad in myFlexads. Their instructions will step you through creating your account in Google, creating the ad, choosing the keywords and setting the amount you are willing to pay for each click. Each time someone clicks your ad they will be sent directly to your ad in myFlexads. They have absolutely no access to your Google account and receive no compensation from Google for any charges on your AdWords account.
Using one of these pay per click program options will ensure that your ad is seen and help you sell your yacht, real estate or other item without paying those high commission charges. You can get more information at http://www.myflexads.com/ppc_intro.php
