Publishing a Classified Ad

To learn more about creating a Classified Ad, please see the article titled Creating a Classified Ad.

Overview

MHParks.com offers two methods to publish your Classified Ad. You can choose to publish the advertisement immediately while you are creating a new ad, or save the advertisement and publish it at a later date directly from your list of Classified Ads. 

When you publish your advertisement, you will be offered the option to upgrade your advertisement to a Premium Ad.

Immediately after you publish your ad, both free and paid members will receive an email notification about your advertisement. Your advertisement will also start displaying on the Classified Ads page of MHParks.com.

You will be notified via email when your publishing period ends, so that you can also republish your advertisement.
