Adveryday Blog http://www.adveryday.com/blog Marketing your business, Advertise everything Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:03:51 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Notification to the Past Ads Advertisers http://www.adveryday.com/blog/2012/04/notification-to-the-past-ads-advertisers/ http://www.adveryday.com/blog/2012/04/notification-to-the-past-ads-advertisers/#comments Fri, 20 Apr 2012 06:03:51 +0000 Adveryday http://www.adveryday.com/blog/?p=533 As of our new version of Adveryday, now every new ads will have their expiration dates (from 2 to 12 mths).

The old ads will also be assigned with an expiration date. But how do we decide when is the expiration date for them?

We calculated these expiration date through the creation date of ads. The oldest existing ad will have an expiration date of 6 months, start from 3 Apr 2012. While the newest existing ad will have an expiration date of 18 months start from 3 Apr 2012. The existing ads that in between will be populated proportionally between the oldest and the newest existing ads accordingly.

So much for the explanation :)

A better, and user friendlier Adveryday is here! We present you the version 5.0.

So what’s new? Let me list down some of the major improvements for your reference :)

  • The way you browse the ads
    First the browsing direction has been changed to left-to-right, as if you are reading a book. Not just this, the browsing interface is now even cleaner! Ads are loaded seamlessly from the previous loaded ads.

    The ads are also sorted in a ‘F’ pattern, which is much more adapt to human’s natural reading behavior. Read more about the ‘F’ pattern here: http://www.useit.com/alertbox/reading_pattern.html
  • Improvement on the ads automatically mark read
    Ads will now only be faded off when you selected at least one option from the ad menu, and click away from it. A more intuitive approach.
  • New and better rich editor for your ad design
  • Introducing expiration to the ads
    This is a very important milestone for us. In the past ads are almost permanent, however we conclude that this is not very healthy for our contents. We need our content to be fresh and more up-to-date. This is why we introduced this feature.
  • Improvement on iPhone/iPad interface and usage
    Browse the ads at your finger tips anywhere anytime.

And many other features for you to experience :)

These mails are mostly advertising emails that sent to you without your pre-authorization or approval. They are often being sent in bulk, and targeted mass population. People or companies who are sending these type of emails usually intend to gain business/income with less effort or within a short time. This is obviously illegal and less moral.

I cannot be sure that if this is a shortcut to bring profits. But if you are a legitimate company or you really want your business to grow, never try sending this type of emails. If people do not like the email content, the mails could be marked as spam by them manually. And if many people do this, it will certainly change how the client’s mail filter behaves. The next time an email using the same domain or server is sent, the client mail server may automatically filter the email into spam mailbox. This doesn’t not only affect the existing email recipients but also to the new recipients.

Remember, any type of email will be meaningless if they are being filtered and not seen by the recipients. Sending spam mails not only can cause this long term effect, but also defame reputation.

This is necessary, because sometimes people wants to know where to start to look up for what they need, yes, the main categories. However, do people want to look into the categories of categories (sub category), or even the sub sub category?

My guess is not. Too many categories will just confuse the users, and make things become complex. Which is why we have not come out with the sub categories, we want you to search. Simply key in what you need, and tada! Result’s out. Convenient for advertisers as well.

Anyway, we might go into details someday, if things become necessary. Maybe for the SEO purpose, maybe for the better functionality purpose. In either way, Adveryday will stay innovative and brings you the best :)

When you are designing a New ad, the system will automatically pick a suitable category for your ad base on the ad content and keywords. If the system cannot tell which category the ad should belong to, the default “Everything else” will be selected.

We cannot tell you that this is 100% accurate, but it definitely will save more of your time. Moreover, we will improve this accuracy over time :)

As you might know by now, you could purchase a bigger size or a more distinct color, compare with other general ads, your ad is definitely easier to be looked up by users among search results. And bear in mind that your ad is permanently listed (unless you delete or unpublish them), what you have purchased will be effective and help you in your business for a very very long time. Unlike other ad sites, our ads never expired.

Now, does it sounds like a very good deal to you?

Coming up, there will be more options for paid ads, for example the ‘always on top’ ads, the ‘full size image’ ads, and etc, which we believe will even benefit you and your business. Stay tune :)

Thanks to the CSS3 feature (@font-face), now the text are even visible, and cleaner. We hope by implementing this new feature, we have just enhanced your pleasure of reading ads via mobile devices.

Still, there are  a lot to improve for touch devices, and we are working on it :)
