We though about doing this as simple as possible. How to start: 1. Verify that your local City is still available (Available if not listed here)
2. Still available? Congratulations, you can have it!
3. Become a Network Member today
4. Start your Classifieds Business within 24 hours
5. Collect money directly into your PayPal account. All the money coming from sales on your website is yours to keep. You'll have now to promote your new business all around you by asking family members, friends or neighbors to spread the word about your new activity, by submitting your website to free online directories (we can give you some good addresses), by making some business cards or folders... If you choose to run a classifieds website for the City of Boston, you will receive a complete website set-up with all categories and sub-categories needed and a web address (URL) like http://boston.classifiedsmania.com with an email address as boston [at] classifiedsmania.com This is a permanent web address who can't be changed but if you want, after full set-up, you are free to buy another Domain Name and to redirect it to your permanent initial website address. If you want to do this but don't know how to do it, do not hesitate to contact us and we will assist you. You'll also get a second URL which will be the access to your Admin Panel protected by password. In this area, you could see all information about your customers, the ads posted and set-up the cost about paid ads, advertising banners. This is the back end of your website where everything can be monitored.

If you need more information about that, feel free to contact us.
