Equestrian Classified Websites are an excellent resource for anyone wanting to buy or sell anything relevant to the niche (area of specialty). However, with so many social media resources now available to use instead, you may be wondering why you should still choose to use one. In our article here, we paused to reflect on 10 main reasons why equestrian classifieds websites are still at the forefront for selling;
- Social media limitations – Facebook (FB) has banned posts that directly appear to be selling an equine (or any other animal), by placing a listing on FB you risk breaching terms and getting into trouble. Breaches can attract bans.
- Listings reach a niche market looking for specific types of listings, (a targeted audience with an interest in the area) – a market that not only focuses on horses but a particular area for selling, including related items.
- Listings are ordered into categories and can be further defined by age, type, breed etc – making it easier to search for your exact requirements.
- Each listing has a number of views visible on the top so sellers are able to see how many people have viewed their advertisement.
- New classified listings are often sent to subscribers, this may differ between platform.
- Contact details are stored securely.
- The listing won’t be lost in among other topic posts.
- A variety of enhancements are often available i.e highlighted add, ‘stuck’ to the top, included in magazine mailshots, and more (all dependent on website)
- Listings visibility often outweighs that of social media.
