About WhyNotAd:

Made for the community, WhyNotAd is a Web 2.0 wiki style free online advertising portal. You are able to post as many quality free online ads as you like.

We found it difficult to place free online advertising on the Internet, having to use many different sites for the same purpose and being restricted on what, how and when we could do it; so, we created the WhyNotAD free online advertising portal.

  1. Spend no more than 5-10 seconds on the home page. Is the service provided obvious? Yes. The name speaks for itself.
    ï‚· Are you inclined to post a free ad? Yes. Since their service is free, I would want to see how far my ads would go.
    If not, why?
    ï‚· How do you think the site compares to other similar sites/competitors? I would need to spend more time at the site to make that judgement.

    ï‚· Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have. There are plenty of web sites that gives you free advertising services, the question is, which one is the best?
     

  3. Spend no more than 5-10 seconds on the home page. Is the service provided obvious? aside from the tag line to the company name, no. there is nothing saying who you are or what you do. just category links and images.
    Are you inclined to post a free ad? If not, why? no cause there is not easily viewed info on how it works and how you do it.
    How do you think the site compares to other similar sites/competitors? not alot of info on homepage, some digging must be done which is not user friendly
    Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have. should add a “who we are” “what we do” blurb on the homepage. something to welcome people to the page and explain who you are.

    Not initially.  There is so much going on when the page comes up that it is not initially clear what your product is.  After taking the time to read the top area of your page, it is quickly clear but that is not where attention is initially drawn when entering your site.

    Are you inclined to post a free ad? If not, why?

    Not initially.  With so much going on it did not feel extremely professional to me and if I were to advertise I would want to do it in a place that made my audience feel calm and that I was a professional person.

    Good product, love the idea of the free advertising.  Just need to increase the professional image.

    Again, there is so much happening that it feels very chaotic.  With all of the pictures at the primary attention area of the page, focus is drawn there to see what your product is about.  Then boxes popped up everywhere talking about social networking and the chaos felt like it just increased.
