That means, you can target customers that are likely to visit and make purchases.

Posting an ad is very simple in both, the Apple IOS app and the website. After logging in, click on 'Add Post' button on the website or '+' icon in the mobile app. On the subsequent screen, select "Post a free ad" option. The following screen asks for all the information you need to provide in your ad, including media that consists of both pictures and videos.

Once posted, your ad will be available to thousands of visitors on alwire.

This way users can browse through all ads if they wish so. Other sections in alwire include technology news, travel news, sports news and latest stories.
