Ad Listing Instructions for Sellers on BharatVigyapan.com

Welcome to BharatVigyapan.com! Whether you are selling goods, services, or advertising your business, creating a clear, accurate, and compelling ad listing is essential for a successful transaction. Below are step-by-step instructions and best practices for posting an ad on our platform. Please read through these carefully and ensure your ad complies with all guidelines and Indian laws.

1. Register and Set Up Your Account

Before posting an ad, you must create an account on BharatVigyapan.com. Follow these steps:

  • Go to the Sign-Up page and provide your name, email address, phone number, and a secure password.
  • Once registered, log in to your account to access the ad posting features.
  • You can also update your profile with your business or personal information, depending on whether you’re posting as an individual or a business.

2. Select the Correct Category

Choose the appropriate category for your ad to help potential buyers find your listing easily. BharatVigyapan.com offers several categories, including but not limited to:

  • Classifieds: Goods (electronics, furniture, etc.), Services (home repairs, education, etc.)
  • Digital Ads: Business advertisements, promotions, etc.
  • Real Estate: Properties for rent, sale, or lease
  • Job Listings: Employment opportunities

Selecting the right category ensures that your ad reaches the right audience and increases visibility.

3. Create a Compelling Title and Description

Your title and description are the first things a potential buyer will see, so make them clear, concise, and informative.

a. Title:

  • Keep your title short and descriptive. Example: “Brand New Samsung LED TV 40-inch – Best Price!” or “Freelance Graphic Designer Available for Hire”.
  • Avoid using all capital letters, excessive punctuation, or misleading phrases like “Free” or “Limited Offer”.

b. Description:

  • Be clear and specific about the product or service you’re offering.
  • Highlight the key features of the item or service.
  • Include any relevant details such as brand, model, specifications, condition (new or used), size, color, etc.
  • Be honest in your description. Misleading or false information will not only reduce the chances of making a sale but also violate our terms and conditions.

Example Description:

  • “Selling a gently used Samsung 40-inch LED TV (Model #X1234). It has been used for 1 year and is in excellent condition. Comes with remote and original box. Price: ₹25,000.”

4. Upload High-Quality Images

Images help your listing stand out and give buyers a clear idea of what they are purchasing.

  • Use clear, high-resolution images: Take pictures in good lighting and ensure the product is clearly visible.
  • Multiple images: If applicable, upload multiple images showing different angles of the product.
  • Do not use stock photos: The images should be of the actual product or service being offered, not images taken from other websites or third-party sources.

5. Set a Fair and Accurate Price

Pricing is one of the most important factors in attracting potential buyers.

  • Be realistic: Set a fair price based on the condition, demand, and market rate of the item or service.
  • Avoid inflated or deceptive pricing: Listing a product at an unrealistically high price or offering deals that are too good to be true may lead to trust issues and reports of fraudulent behavior.
  • Currency: All prices should be listed in Indian Rupees (₹).

6. Provide Contact Information

Make it easy for interested buyers to contact you.

  • Phone Number or Email: If you choose to display your contact information, make sure it’s accurate.
  • Secure messaging: If you prefer not to share your personal contact information, you can communicate via the internal messaging system on BharatVigyapan.com.

Important: Always use caution when sharing personal contact details. We recommend that all transactions be conducted through the platform’s messaging system to ensure privacy and security.

7. Follow Advertising Guidelines

Your listing must comply with the advertising guidelines set by BharatVigyapan.com and Indian law. Please follow these rules:

  • Avoid prohibited content: Your ad should not promote illegal, offensive, or harmful content. This includes:
    • Fake, misleading, or fraudulent information.
    • Products or services that are prohibited by law (e.g., counterfeit goods, illegal substances).
    • Discriminatory or hate speech.
    • Products or services that infringe on intellectual property rights.
  • Respect intellectual property: Do not use copyrighted images, text, or trademarks without proper authorization.

8. Ad Moderation and Approval

Once you submit your ad, it will undergo a moderation process to ensure it complies with our policies and guidelines. This may take up to 24 hours.

  • Rejection of ads: If your ad is found to be in violation of our terms, it will be rejected. You will be notified via email about the reason for rejection.
  • Approval: Once approved, your ad will be live on BharatVigyapan.com, and potential buyers will be able to view and contact you.

9. Respond Promptly to Interested Buyers

Once your ad is live, be ready to respond quickly to inquiries from potential buyers. Prompt communication increases your chances of completing a transaction.

  • Maintain professionalism: Always respond politely and professionally to queries.
  • Negotiate fairly: If a buyer is interested but wants to negotiate the price, be fair and transparent in your discussions.

10. Stay Safe While Transacting

When making or receiving payments for items or services, follow safe transaction practices:

  • Use secure payment methods: Prefer traceable and secure payment methods like credit cards, bank transfers, or other reliable payment platforms.
  • Avoid cash payments: If possible, avoid transactions in cash or using untraceable methods. For high-value items, always opt for secure payment systems that offer buyer protection.
  • Meet in public places: If you’re meeting in person to exchange goods, always meet in a safe, public location.

11. Renew or Delete Your Ad

Once your ad has expired or is no longer relevant, you can either:

  • Renew the ad: If you wish to keep the ad active, you can renew it for continued visibility.
