Detailed Instructions for Posting Your Camp after setting up Your User Profile
1) Click on “Post an Ad” - (orange button) on the menu bar.
2) Select a category and location.
3) Complete your posting - All fields marked with an asterisk (*) must be completed. Enter as much info as you’d like. If your “rate/class” information is too detailed to list, please refer people to your website for more info. (i.e. – See website for more information on rates and/or classes).
4) Photos - The first photo that is uploaded will be used as your primary image and also as the “feature” photo (optional), so make sure this is your preferred image (square or horizontal photos work best). Up to 8 images (photos/graphics) may be added to your listing. Images may be no larger than 1,024k. “Featured” photos work best as a 300 x 300. You can also use descriptive text for each photo. (Please use the name of your camp/business for the first primary photo.)
5) Featured Listing – Check the “featured Listing” box if you would like your listing to appear in the slider box at the top of the main page. (See our “Frequently Asked Questions” for more information on our Featured Listings)
6) TAG Words - A ”tag” is essentially a keyword used to describe your camp or your camps activities. Tags will help your camp’s visability when visitors search our site. TAGS should be separated with commas and without quotes. (i.e. baseball, swimming, summer camp, day camp, baltimore, etc.) The more descriptive tags, the better!
