Thumbnail images for all Featured Postings

Now when you buy a Featured Posting on Franglo, you get one more benefit... a thumbnail image of your primary image/photo right on the category listing page. Featured Postings now stand out even more, giving you even more visibility.

Featured Postings still include all all the other benefits that have always offered:

Prominence: Bolder, more colorful display on web pages throughout the Franglo Network.

Position: Appear in the "Featured postings" box on the left side of every Franglo page, in rotation.

Priority: Stay at the top of the category listings—don't get pushed down the list as newer postings are added.

Promotion: Get inclusion in at least one edition of the weekly Franglo email newsletter.

Results: Typically 10 times to 25 times as many hits as standard postings, and sometimes much more (your results, of course, may vary).

New partnership integration API

Just for you techies out there...

We're created this API in order to provide an ability for Franglo partner websites to synchronize their member databases with the Franglo system, enabling end-users to access the functionality of both the partner website and Franglo services using the same login credentials and personal information.

For more information, or to request the API specifications, please contact us.

Persistent login

Now, when you sign in to your Franglo account on Franglo.com or via any Franglo partner, you are automatically logged into the full network. You can browse other countries and regions without having to "re-sign in" to your account. A small but convenient improvement!

Search-engine friendlier URLs

Franglo now generates unique URLs for each posting that includes the text of the posting title. This feature improves search engine indexing of Franglo postings. What does this mean for you? Your postings will be easier for others to find when they do keyword searches on search engines like Google, Yahoo! and MSN.

Now up to 6 images per posting

Many users have noted that, especially for for housing ads, the limitation of three images per posting really didn't do the property justice. So as of today, we've increased the number of images you can add to each posting from three to six — and not just for housing. You can now add up to six images to your postings in all categories.

Remember, your images must still adhere to the size and dimension limitations. No more than 150KB and a maximum resolution of 640x480 pixels.
