You will see your ad there, then click on it.
- PRIVATE ADDRESS: If you selected, “Private address,” you will need to view our site when not logged in to your account, to see how it appears to others. When you are logged into your account and look at your ad, you will always see your address, even if you selected Private Address. Instead of logging out to look at your ad, you can open up a different browser (meaning, if you use Google Chrome, open up a Firefox browser, or a Safari, Edge, Bing, Duck Duck Go or other browser or vice versa, where you are not logged in instead.
- SOCIAL MEDIA & OTHER LINKS: The website urls you enter must start with https:// for them to hyperlink.

The ad will stay unpublished until the inappropriate content is removed.
