At HOMESmarketing the ads are searchable by readers with precise search criteria and all visitors can view the ads without any pre-registration requirements. This comes with many meaningful and practical features of the ads that would be to the benefits of both the advertisers and the general readers:

To the general readers (can be potential customers of the advertisers!):

• Easy steps to find what you look for (just enter your search criteria precisely to start your search)
• Qualified ads will be listed in a well-sorted, easy to read table
• No need to read unqualified ads line by line [for example: if you were looking for properties with at least 3 bedroom, properties with 2 bedrooms or less will not show up]
• No missing of qualified ads [likewise, if you specifically define in your search criteria, you'll get all ads with 3 bedrooms even if they have been on the system for a long time]

To the advertisers:

• Your ad will not be buried in nowhere but will reach the target readers (and potential customers) matching their search criteria
• No need to re-post the same ad from time to time to keep the ad on top of the list
• Easy searching experience of the readers means greater opportunities to attract potential customers to your ads
• You can keep the same AD# active for as long as is desired (use this as your personal long term website - especially good for small businesses, household product or service providers: repair and renovation services, household cleaners, landscaping and gardening services, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, general renovators, private tutors, etc.)

Try out the Precise Search Functionality

If you wish to explore further about the system's precise search functionality, the following demonstrations will show you how the user editable classified ad types on HOMESmarketing can be searched with precise criteria. We use ads stored in the system's Test Zone to perform the test. The search and display functionalities and features of the Test Zone are the same as in all Regional sites. To proceed to a Regional site of your choice (in the real geographical world) please follow the "Change Region" link at the top of this page.

Listed in the box below are links to three major ad types on the system. You can click on a link to open the SEARCH MENU of the ad type (in a new window), then try out the search functionality as follows:

• TRY IT: Get the result without setting any search criteria, the system will still display all available listings in an easy to read sort order (default sort).
• TRY IT: You can set your criteria precisely to obtain only listings that match your criteria (so that you don't waste time reading unqualified ads line by line). You can set any or all available criteria displayed on the search menu, and define a sort order for the result list (you'll see that many unqualified ads are filtered out).
• TRY IT: In the result list, you can click on the AD# to open the ad page (or link). If this is a full page ad of the HOMESmarketing system, you'll see that the page is independently displayed (i.e., no other ads will be seen on the page).
