You will notice
that at the bottom of each page you will be given the option to ‘update'
or ‘update & proceed', these buttons can be used in two ways……with
the ‘update' option this is usually used for existing adverts where
the advertiser needs to change some of the content on their advert.
But as a new advertiser you may wish to stop half way through the creation
of you advert and return to it later, use the update button to save the
information you have created and then log out…..you may return later to
complete your advertisement.
‘update & proceed', as this suggests you will use this button to save and
proceed to the next page of details once you have completed a section.
You will notice at the top of the ‘create your advert' section, various
tabs denoting the various sections of the advert, you may click on these
tabs at any time to jump forward to parts you wish to complete/ update
first.
If you choose to send us your photos to upload to your advert this will
apply to you. |
