May I submit more than one ad per category?
You can submit as many ads as you want. But the title and content of each ad should be different. Our program will automatically remove the duplicate ads. Please be careful with your ads and do not abuse this FREE service.

What is the Ad ID?
Ad ID is a computer generated unique number to identify a spedific advertisement. It will only be sent to you in the "Thank You" message, which is automatically generated and sent for every new ad. The Ad ID is required for that advertisement's upgrading, edition, removing, and any communication with 5StarAds. Please save your Ad ID in case you need it later.

What is the "Thank You" message?
The "Thank You" message is an automatically generated e-mail message for every new advertisement. The posting confirmation, Ad ID, and other important information will be included in the message. You may check your ad in the "Thank You" message and correct any mistakes at 5StarAds' Edit&Remove panel. The Ad ID will be needed for further reference.

How will others see my ads?
There are two ways to see your ads. One is from the category list. When an ads category is selected, all ads under that category will be listed. Another way is through the search function. If your advertisement contains the searched words that others want to find , your ads will be loaded and displayed on the screen. Select the proper category and carefully write your ads. These are the keys to the visibility of your ads.

Why can I not see my ad on the list?
You need to RELOAD or REFRESH the page to see the most current ads listing. Or you may want to use the SEARCH function to search the full title of your ad. Since the speed of Internet can be slowed by traffic, you may want to check your ad after a few minutes.


FAQ of our paid Classified Ads Service
Why do I need an icon for my ad?
The purpose of an eye-catching icon is to attract the viewers' attention. Imagine that you are the viewer who sees an attractive animated icon within several plain text ads. Which one would you want to check first? The one with the icon, wouldn't you? That is why you would want to have an eye-catching icon for your ad. It is worth it.

How can I post my ads with eye-catching icon?
The ad posting is the same as the free posting. Instead of the free posting, select either one-month or three-month posting with an icon. Please remember to select an icon from the icon list. However, the icon will NOT show up with your ad after you post it. It will be activated by the 5StarAds staff only after we receive your payment. If there is no payment, the ad you posted would just like other free ones (without icon displayed) and will be removed after one month.

How can I activate my paid ad?
After you post your ad with the choice of either one-months or three-month, you will receive an email message where you can find the payment info. Please write the Ad ID on the check or money order that you send to us. As soon as we receive the payment, we will activate the icon and your ad will last one month or three months from the date we activated the ad.

How many payment options do you have for paid ad?
We have two payment options for paid ad. One is $10.00 for one-month and another is $14.95 for two-months. The period for the paid ads will start at the day when the icon is activated rather than the day when the ad is posted.

What kind of payment do you accept?
We accept both check (or money) and online credit card order. The online payment with your credit card will be processed by a secured transection service. To pay by check or money order, please make your check or money order payable to Visual Wave.

Where should I send my payment to?
Please send your payment to: Visual Wave, 2187 Country View Lane, Salt Lake City, UT 84121, USA. Please make your check or money order payable to Visual Wave and write the Ad ID on the check.
