this boost feature is for real? has nobody seen what has happened to google search engine?

boo


I’m curious. What’s your parallel issue with the google search engine?

Maybe jot down a couple pros and cons?

Speaking from the sell side….
Pros
- increased listing visibility
- cheaper than Starbucks
- make mo money mo faster

Cons
- less money for BuySell babe dates
- boost adds don’t show up in the google search engine shop section like eBay.

Speaking from the buy side might be your perspective YRneoh ??

Go use google and try to tell me that SEO hasn’t tarnished the ability to find anything but sponsored results

Why is it that the only listings I can find are for “Boosted” sellers?

You can view the view count of your listing by viewing the listing.

But doesn’t that add a view to the count?
When you have an item listed for sale, your view should not add to the count of views.

Are the sellers with boosted ADs marking their items up to account for an outside+ membership?

Hello!

Is there anywhere that all of the search bar tricks are documented? For example "-stumpjumper" to exclude a search term. Specifically, I'm trying to search for posts with "MX" or "Mullet" in them but I'd love to have all of these tips in one place.

Thanks!

I am trying to post an ad and I get the following error message:

^Your last PB Buysell posting was suspicious. As a security measure we have sent you an email with a link you must click to verify your account before you can post.

And of course, I am not getting any email with a link to verify my account, not even in my spam folder.

I've sold quite a few items in the past, and none of them are "suspicious" so I am not sure why I'm getting this message and how can I fix it (as no email has been sent).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks alex, just cleared you. Seems like scammers bloom in the summer like mountain sage and lilacs so we implemented more checks and 2FAs to catch the baddies. If in doubt, check your spam folder.

Unfortunately me and others are getting banned for general messages in a discussion thread, by the 'spam AI bot', which people are getting frustrated with.

Hi Jake,

I tried again and didn't work. No email has been received. I checked my spam folder and there's nothing there either.

Should I logout completely and login again? I'm freaking out because I need to sell this bike as I already bought a new one, ha!

Thanks for your help!!
