I immediately got caught up looking at the items advertised on this site so it must be effective. AdFlyer is an online marketplace where you can buy and sell a wide variety of goods and also tickets, property and pets. Whether you’re looking for a new puppy, a holiday villa with swimming pool, antiques or everday items, you’re likely to find them here.

The site is well organised with a full menu of goods listed by category, plus appealing pictures on the home page of the latest and most popular adverts. At the time of writing Christmas caused most popular gifts to appear and scroll through, giving plenty of ideas and opportunities for impulse buys. There’s a great selection in each category and clear options on the tags to go to the Buy or Sell sections.

Clicking on the Buy tag takes you to a full alphabetical list of items by category and by specific product type. Clicking on the Sell tag also brings up a full list of categories so you can choose where to advertise your item for free. There’s also a paid option which adds extra features for sellers. With so many websites around offering an online marketplace it’s a difficult place to succeed, but with free adverts and a good design this one has attracted a large number of sellers already.
