About classified advertising
The Classified section is set up for the sale of tangible items, real estate and employment.
Our classified department does not accept ads that offer SERVICES with the exception of :
· Child and nursing/education
· 1-on-1 tutorials/music lessons
· Animal stud service
· Baby/pet/house sitting
· Dog walkers
· Sewing/alterations out of the home
Service advertisers are better off advertising with our commerical sales department. However. if a customer is offering a service that relates directly to the item being advertised, it is acceptable.
Example: GE REFRIGERATOR: $150 with warranty. (713)555.2122
The price ($150) includes item and warranty and is an actual tangible item. The ad is ACCEPTABLE.
Example: ELECTRICIAN: ANYTIME, reasonable rates. (713)555.2122.
This ad is unacceptable! A service is being offered, there is no tangible item.
For service advertising, contact our commerical sales department.
Text of the ad can include a phone number, email address and/or website address. Business listing cannot include redirected links.
We also ask that you design the ad in such a way to run with minimum changes.
