minniemeggie Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 So I was curious, have you put up a notice board ad to advertise your shop or gallery, did you think it was it worth? Had any bad experiences? The last time I put one up I didn't really notice an increase in shop traffic and I was on the front page for several days.

slavecrown Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I put a few up, several years ago, and I can't say that I really noticed an increase, either. I can only speak for myself, but I've never used the notice boards to find shops. I know they're meant to advertise shops, but I don't think they're seen much, since most people get to user shops through the shop wizard.

Shelley Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I see those spiffy adds all the time, I kind of wondered that myself. One of the main reasons I don't like shopping through those huge shops with so many pages is that it takes too long to find the item I'm looking for. If I needed an item for a faerie quest I can see that they could be useful. But I still find it easier to just to post on the faerie quest help board ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minniemeggie Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 I figured as much. I never use the noticeboards but seeing how some malls dish out millions to be on the front page I figured there had to be some merit to it.. but perhaps not.

Shelley Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I know! I can't believe the numbers I see some times haha. I couldn't imagine that it actually helped THAT much. But I guess if they're willing to pay that much to constantly stay on top then there must be some benefit to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lia Seeya Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Last I checked, the top notice was a scene from King of the Hill. :P I'm not sure if the notice board itself is actually worth it, unless you're part of some kind of mall or something (I don't even have a clear idea how those work). I think more effective advertising is through the Shop Ads board on Neopets. Personally, I don't really even check the Notice Boards that often.

lovedwallflower Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I'd much rather advertise here on tdn (there's a pinned thread in General Chat). Then if people want to look around the shop they can do so. Remember, there are a lot of guests who lurk around the forums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
