Free Advertising

I just can't believe it. Promote, Promote, Promote.


Isn't that what we are supposed to do to advertise our business?



Well, I just checked out my Web Analytics and found that 23 customers had clicked on a link that said: Beware of .....LydiasTreasures4U.  So, I immediately researched the comment and this is what I found.


I posted on a free advertising site named Oodle. My ad showed a pic of my jewelry and informing everyone that I sold Homemade Jewelry and Accessories.

Well, my add was blended in with their everyday warning disclaimers and this was the end result of the oodle ad that advertised my jewelry.

The whole ad reads: always meet the seller locally and inspect all items before you buy. Beware of....LydiasTreasures4U on oodle-Fort Walton, Beach, Fl.3 weeks ago. ft waltonbeach.oodle.com/sale/?0=75.cached page.

This ad is false and in no way represents my shop, my jewelry creations or policies. I strive hard
to please all of my customers and to insure they are happy with their purchases.

If you look at my etsy shop, I have a 100% customer satisfaction rating.
