Advertising your promotions on Your Local Deal is simple. Just follow the steps below and you'll be up and running in just a few minutes. TIP: We allow up to 6 photos, which can be used for your business logo, advertising print images, or anything related to your business. It's a good idea to have the digital images organized and ready to upload to our website when you start your ad.
1. Register a User Account
Registration is quick and simple, and anyone is eligible for an account. Your registration creates an online user account, where you can login and manage your ads, profile, flyers, signs, etc.
2. Select a Category (and subcategory, where applicable)
Once you have registered, login to your account and click the "Place an Ad" button.
To ensure optimal exposure, be sure to select the appropriate category for your business. Many viewers will look for specific deals, so having your ad in the correct category is important to ensure maximum exposure.
3. Listing Content & Photos
After selecting the appropriate category and subcategory, you will be prompted to provide category-specific information about your business and the promotion you are offering. Collected information may include business name, address, mapping address, phone, description, etc.
You may also upload up to six photographs to compliment your ad. We recommend you use the first photo as your logo. This will be the image viewed first by all viewers. This is also the image that is displayed as a thumbnail if you select the Featured add-on (see below). The remaining images can be used for anything relating to your business (interior or exterior photos, graphic art, customer shots, etc.). Also, you can use your photos to upload promotional graphics or imagery. For example, if you already advertise in a printed circulatory, you can simply upload the digital version of your ad artwork. Or, if you want customers to present a coupon, you can use one or more of your images as the print coupon.
4. Checkout & Add-ons
Once you have finished creating your ad, you will start the checkout process. During checkout, you can choose one or more add-on options, including Featured or Bolding. These will bring more exposure to your ad.
- Featured Ads - $10.00: Featured ads are displayed as thumbnails, with the business name appearing under the image. Featured ads are rotated on our home page, and in the "browse" pages, providing instant exposure to your business and promotion. Featured ads are rotated randomly.
- Bolding - $5.00: This add-on bolds your description when a viewer is browsing a specific category, making it stand out from the standard ads.
