FAQ Advanced Listing Ad

Q. What sets us apart from other directory sites?

1. Number of Ads Posted. We Limit the number of ads within a certain category. We allow only 5 Listing or Banner ads in a category, and only 5 Small Banner ads. No more wondering if your ad is going to be seen.

2. Power in numbers. We own over a 100 different websites, all linked together. We get over a million hits a month.

3. Affordable. Where else can you advertise your business for $400 per year? Which breaks down to $1.11/ day. Just one classified ad in a local newspaper will cost you more and would not be as effective.

4. Accurate information.  There has been a problem with other directory sites maintaining accurate information. We strive to maintain all your information updated and correct, so that clients can contact you directly.

5. Ease of Use. Our websites are visually designed to be very "user friendly." It makes no sense to have a directory website if the customer is not able to navigate through the site easily. Also, a customer can easily find you by using our "Keyword Search" page. Now, clients can search your business by any word associated with your ad (ie. name, address, city, category etc.).

6. Easy set up. We can have your listing ad up and running within 24 hours. Giving you maximum exposure when you buy your ad with us. We make it as easy as possible. Unlike a lot of advertising companies that require you have your ad or photo in a certain file format and must come in a certain pixel, we don't do that to you. We can accept any file format, at any size and make your ad work. It's quick, easy and convenient.

Q. Do I have to offer a "Deal" to advertise in the Directory?

A. While you don't have to offer any kind of a discount or free product, our website does promote itself as the place for Bakersfield residents to go to and find great deals locally. A "Deal" can be as simple as offering free consultation, estimates, or a special of some type that your normally offer anyway. It doesn't have to be unique or specific just for advertising in Reveal a Deal Bakersfield.com. The best thing to do also, is to mention in your ad to let the customer know they saw you in Reveal a Deal Bakersfield.com to get the "Deal."

Q. How do the clients find me?

A. The directory is designed for the local Bakersfield Community. The following is an example of the steps an actual client would take in finding your ad:

1. The clients will enter the website and are given the choice to search by a master category.

2. Next they will see a directory of sub-categories related to the master category chosen.

3. Then, they will click on the link that will take them to the list of businesses in that category.

Q. Can you guarantee that these people listed in the directory are reputable?

A. Our hope is that everyone listed in the directory would have great value and ethics, but it is beyond our control to guarantee the performance, honesty or ethics of individual business owners within this website. While we expect those listed in the directory to be reputable, we cannot guarantee it. We can only hope that based on the principles of which these sites support, everyone involved will be reputable and honest in all their business dealings. As with any important decision, you should always inquire more of the individual you want to work with.

Q. What do you do to optimize your websites to ensure exposure to the Bakersfield community?

A. We have been designing websites since 1997 and earning top rankings for their keywords in Google, Yahoo and MSN ever since.

• We focus on Google search engines because Google is 80% of the market. Our sites, as you can see, not only rank in the top three, but rank several times in the first page of a search.

• We are constantly engineering our sites to optimize the performance and placement of the sites on the internet search engines.

• As these sites grow bigger, they grow more powerful in maintaining placement on the search engines. To date, these sites already hold 1,900 pages of Bakersfield content. More than most other Bakersfield websites out there.

• We also advertise using Google ad-words. So even if our natural rankings fall down, we can ensure that the site will still be near the top of every targeted keyword.

• And you will notice that some categories will also be on the same page several times

• There are several other techniques and strategies we use to optimize the engineering of our sites that we cannot disclose here.

We pride ourselves in actually optimizing our sites on a regular basis rather than just filling the site with content and letting it sit there and hope that it ranks well.

*Even though it is our intention to always rank well on the search engines, please understand that this is beyond our control. We are always doing our best to maintain these sites to the highest performance level, but we cannot guarantee their performance

Q. Do I have to have a website to be listed with any of Inadrek's Directory websites?

A. Of course not. This is a directory with full contact information where most patrons will call you direct, or if you have a store front, drop by. It does help the patrons understand who you are a little better when you have a website with more information about yourself. But not at all necessary.

Q. What if there are grammatical errors in my listing?

A. We take your information directly from the form you fill out. So please be sure you double check for errors before submitting. If you make a mistake and you would like to fix it, we can change it for you for a $20 fee.

Q. How long does it take to get my ad posted?

A. Advertising on these directories is an immediate medium of exposure for your business.

• Advanced ad listings can be posted as quick as a few hours, but no longer than 24 hours. Also, if you purchase a listing with a picture, your ad will still get posted within 24 hours, even if you have not yet sent us your picture. And, upon you emailing us your picture it will be updated within 24 hours.

• If you have requested for us to design a custom banner ad, please allow up to 7 days to receive your first ad proof. Within this 7 day period, we work with you to get your banner designed. Once you approve the ad, it will get published to the websites within 24 hours. Keep in mind however, even during the designing period, there will be a temporary ad published for you with your business information until that time your Banner is published. So, even during the time it takes to design your Banner ad, you getting maximum advertising exposure.

Q. What is your refund policy?

A.  Like most advertising mediums, due to the nature of this type of business, there is no grace period nor refund. The minute that your order is taken, we immediately begin processing and designing your ad. Within 24 hours you will have your ad posted on our directories. Banner ads must be designed and assign to a website before being posted. Therefore, have no time limit before they are posted. This is due to the creative work that goes into designing them. Please understand we start all processing within the same day an order is received. Because of this, there are already staff and processing costs that are incurred. Therefore, there are no refunds.
