Frequently Asked Questions About Promotional Options for my Ads:

What are Featured Ads and what are the benefits of a Featured Ad?
Featured Ads are Stumblehere Ads which appear in a special Featured section of a category's page for several days. We have found through our extensive research that more people read and reply to these Ads because of their prominent position on the first page of a category over a long period of time. Thus, by converting your Ad to a Featured Ad, you will get more traffic and more replies to your Featured Ad than other Ads on Stumblehere which helps you sell your item quicker or provides more exposure for your products or services. Additionally, Featured Ads will continue to appear within the regular category and search listings, giving your Ad even more exposure even after your Ad is no longer in the Featured Ads section. While posting Ads on Stumblehere is free, there is a small fee for converting it to a Featured Ad.

>What is LOOK HERE?
The LOOK HERE feature is the logo that is placed next to your Ad to help bring attention to your Ad and allows it to be more attractive to a potential buyer of your item or service. We have found through our extensive research that more people read and reply to Ads that have the LOOK HERE logo than those Ads that do not have this feature. While posting Ads on Stumblehere is free, there is a small fee to add the LOOK HERE logo to your Ad.

Why can't I see my Ad in the Featured Ads section?
To refrain from overexposure to the Featured Ads option, we are currently limiting the Featured Ads to a maximum of 3 Ads per category. If there are more than 3 Ads which were paid to appear as Featured Ads in a category, then the extra Featured Ads will be hidden and set up on a rotation system. This rotation system is created to ensure that all Featured Ads are exposed to as many Stumblehere users as possible and provides each Featured Ad an equal opportunity to be seen by a potential buyer.

How much does it cost to buy a Featured Ad or LOOK HERE?
As we previously stated, you may always post an Ad on Stumblehere for free, Featured Ads incur a small fee of $3.99 per Ad and the Featured Ad promotion will last for 30 days. Also, the fee for the LOOK HERE promotion is $0.99 and will also last for 30 days. Please be aware that the fees for the Featured Ad or LOOK HERE may be revised at any time so check back frequently for updates. You may combine the Featured Ad promotion with the LOOK HERE promotion. All payments for Featured Ads and LOOK HERE are final and non-refundable.

Can I delete a Featured Ad or LOOK HERE promotion and get a refund?
Unfortunately, no. The fees for Featured Ads and LOOK HERE are final non-refundable. Should you decide that you no longer desire to have your Ad appear in the Featured Ads section or with the LOOK HERE logo, you may elect to delete your Ad. Additionally, if the Featured Ad is in the wrong category, feel free to edit the Ad and place it into the correct category.

What payment methods are accepted to pay for a Featured Ad or LOOK HERE?
You can pay for a Featured Ad or LOOK HERE promotion by using a PayPal account or a major Credit Card (MasterCard, Visa, AMEX or Discover). All payments are securely processed through our payment center to protect your personal information.

How long will my Ad be shown in the Featured Ad section and/or have the LOOK HERE logo?
Your Ad will remain in the Featured Ad section and/or will contain the logo for 30 days.

If I edit my Ad, will it still appear in the Featured Ad section and/or LOOK HERE logo?
Yes. Currently your Ad shall remain in the Featured Ad section until it you have deleted it or until the maximum of 30 days has expired.

My Featured Ad or LOOK HERE logo was deleted. Will my fees be reimbursed?
As stated above, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the site, Featured Ad fees and LOOK HERE fees are non-refundable. Additionally, if you have deleted your Ad or if the Ad was deleted by Stumblehere for violating the site policies, then the fees paid to list the Ad in the Featured Ad section and/or LOOK HERE promotion will not be refunded.

Can I make an Ad a Featured Ad in more than one category?
Currently, no. At the moment you can only place an Ad in the Featured Ads section in the category in which it was posted. Please remember that Ad will also appear as a Featured Ad in the category's parent section. For example, if a Featured Ad was bought in the "motorcycles for sale" category, it will also appear in the main parent "cars & vehicles" section. Your Ad will also appear in searches that also match any word in your Ad title. For example, if someone searches for a Honda Civic and the title of your Ad add contains Honda Civic, Honda, or Civic, your Featured Ad will appear.

>How can I make an Ad that is already posted on the site a Featured or Look Here Ad?
To make an existing Ad a Featured Ad, click the "Edit" link found in the email that was sent to you when you posted an Ad. Then click on the Featured Ad option.

How many Featured Ads are displayed at one time?
You may see between 0 and 3 Featured Ads at a time. If there are more than 3 Ads which were paid to appear as Featured Ads in a category, then the extra Featured Ads will be hidden for a few minutes. After a few minutes those Ads will then show up with other Ads being hidden. This rotation system is setup to ensure that all Featured Ads are exposed to as many Stumblehere viewers as possible.
