StefanieBell 240 Report post Posted August 15, 2015 I am not a big fan of BP or CL for advertising as it seems I have gotten nothing but time wasters so far. But Since I am new I figured I could use all the extra advertising I can get. BP keeps removing my ad though, I can edit it and it shows back up but after a few hours it can't be found again. There is nothing in the wording that is offensive or hinting at any illegal activities and I have some clothing on in my photos....more than most of the other pics at least. Anyone have any idea why it might be happening? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted August 16, 2015 Is this a free ad you're using and if you post a second time within the 24 hours, it will go up and appear live in the general listings for a few minutes and then disappear. It will go into what's called "additional city listings". If you move your ad to the top of the listings and it hasn't been 24 hours and you don't see it there anymore, do a search on your name or phone number if you're in the escort or massage category and there you may find it in additional city listings. When that happens to me, I use the pay safe card and pay $1.00 to bump it up and it stays on the general listings. Hope this helps!

StefanieBell 240 Report post Posted August 16, 2015 It is a free ad, I posted it once and got a few replies then when I went to look for it 2 days later I couldn't find it at all even by searching for my title. So I moved it to the top again, it showed for a few hours (maybe more) and then it was gone again. Just annoying, and I can't see a reason for it. Oh well, I am not going to stress about it too much.

Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted August 16, 2015 I was just speaking to another lady on the phone about this and the same thing happened to her. It doesn't even show anymore. Best thing to do when this happens is pay the $1.00 to make sure it stays there. Posted via Mobile Device Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andee 220524 Report post Posted August 16, 2015 Bumping your ad for free won't guarantee it will stay up for long. After you have bumped it for free, wait a bit and then click the link in your confirmation email and when it shows the "move" feature showing, then you can pay $1.00 using a paysafecard to bump it to the top again. You can purchase a paysafecard at any Canada Post outlet or certain Esso Gas Stations for as little as $10 plus service charge. You need to go up to the cash and actually have the cashier punch it in and they will give you a receipt with a pin number on it which is basically the card. My advice is not to rely on free bumps to keep your ad going. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StefanieBell 240 Report post Posted August 16, 2015 Its not about keeping my ads going or getting free bumps. I was just wondering if anyone had issues with the ad being completely deleted even when first posted and not a bump at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fortunateone 156618 Report post Posted August 17, 2015 Its not about keeping my ads going or getting free bumps. I was just wondering if anyone had issues with the ad being completely deleted even when first posted and not a bump at all. Your ads are not getting deleted tho, that is what they are letting you know. Your ads are getting redirected into a different location. If you have not registered for an account, do that. then you can log into your account, and see all your ads, and their dates, and manage them from there. I never even look at my emails, they come in when i bump up or pay for a sponser or something, i guess. I just monitor and deal with my ads completely via my account and manage ad option. I have asked bp support about this redirecting ads. I think that a lot of infrequent users or those who have never had sponser ads are experiencing this. I have no idea how you are going to get out of the cycle HOWEVER, bp support's response to my query said that if someone wants more visibility to their ad, to buy a paid feature lol. my advice to a friend who was having issues was first, post in the less used bodyrub section. if there is only a single page of ads, even if the ad gets redirected to the special section, that section is just at the bottom of the page, i.e. still visible. bump it daily anyway. 2nd piece of advice is have more than just one ad, and rotate thru them, one a day on the free bumps. 3rd is buy a sponser ad, for one week, when that expires, buy sponser on one of your other ads. all of my ads show as sponser ads because i have in the past put up all of them as sponsers (i only have a total of 8 ads, 'all' sounds like alot). not one single ad of mine is ever redirected into the 'additional ads' section. Not one single ad of mine has ever been deleted or removed from the site. based on what bp support said, and my experience, i am suggesting that having paid for the sponsers, and been a regular user of bp, and not trying to do multiple ads daily on the free bumps, etc, all ad up to bp not messing or redirecting my ads. also as mentioned here, pay the 1.00 to bump up the ad will top post you again for a while. bp support never did give me a direct answer as to why new advertisers who have never purchased sponser ads, for example, couldn't get an ad to stay up on the first page in the regular listings. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait a few hours after you bump it for free and when you click on the link you should see the option to MOVE it up again, then you can pay $1.00. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobolakj43 140 Report post Posted August 19, 2015 Just out of curiosity where on BP do these ads go? Is the a way to view them? For myself i sometimes browse via listcrawler as it seems to have more ads despite basically being a BP mirror. I'm curious if the extra ads are the ones that BP has pruned.
