Classifieds search tips
Using keywords well
Type
a word or phrase that you expect will appear in the ad you seek -- called a keyword(s)
-- in the search field. Follow these rules to make your search more specific:
- To search for multiple words,
leave a space between each word, which will imply the word "and." For example,
if you specify computer programmer, the search engine will return all
ads that contain the words computer and programmer.
- To search for a specific phrase, place words inside of quotation marks. For example, if you type "computer programmer", the search engine will return ads that have the words computer and programmer in succession.
