Searching by Keywords

To locate ads on the system that contain specific keywords, you may enter the terms you are looking for in the Keyword Search text box located at the bottom of most pages throughout the directory.

To perform a broad search of all ads posted, enter your search terms and select the option to locate any ad that contains "any of my keywords". This is the simplest of all searches and may return a large number of matches depending upon your keyword entered.

To further narrow your search, you should select the option to find "all my keywords" in an ad. This will only return ads which contain every keyword you have entered into the keyword text box area. For example: Entering the keywords Italian Dining would return all ads which contain the keyword Italian Dining. However by entering the keyword Pizza, only ads containing the keyword Pizza would be returned.

By performing an advanced search, you are able to further narrow the choices of ads you wish to find. You may specify the following criteria.

If your search criteria you set returns no ads, you should refine your ad by allowing ads without photos or by looking for ads which may have been posted prior to the date range you selected.
