Contact Form Bug Fixed

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Unfortunately, the contact form on the contact page has been broken for quite a while now. It did appear to be working, but no emails were sent through.

We were not aware that this was happening, so any requests sent were lost. We apologise for this inconvenience, and we hope it hasn’t caused too much trouble.

If any of you have wanted to ask a question, please do it now – I am all ears!

To make up for this bad customer service, I will hopefully be upgrading the site in the next few weeks. This will give you all a much better user experience, and some new ways to list your birds on the Breeders Market. I will release more details as they come to hand.

Get the most out of your Listing

Sunday, October 1st, 2006

We are starting to see a few people signing up for the Breeders Market Directory. There are only a few free premium listings left, and then it will be up to you to upgrade your own listing.

To all those that have a listing – don’t forget to log into your user area and add your descriptions, images and products.

Your description lets everybody know what you do, what birds you have and any other details you want them to know.

Your images can be of anything related to your listing. It could be a photo of you, of your birds, or of your aviaries. Just follow the size guidelines.

When you have birds for sale, tell everyone about them, by adding your products. This will not only show up in your listing, but when people are searching for products for sale.

The Breeders Market Directory offers you a great way to reach buyers, and all it takes is a little bit of time to get the most out of your listing.

And Remember… If you need any help, dont hesitate to ask.

Adding photos of your birds and pets to your listings.

Friday, July 14th, 2006

Breeders Market gives you the opportunity to add photos to your directory listing. This will give users a great idea of what sort of birds or pets you are breeding, or what your cages or enclosures look like.

You can log into your administration area and add images to your image gallery, by clicking the Image Gallery button at the top of your listing details.

Add your image to the gallery by locating it on the hard drive and uploading it. Remember that your image can only be 600 by 600, and a maximum of 50K.

Editing your photos

You will need some editing software to do this. Photoshop is good, but expensive, so I recommend Google Picasa. It is free, and is good for editing and saving photos for the web. You can download it by clicking the following link.

Find the photos that you want, edit them using the tools available, and click export. You can then alter the size and quality to get the desired file size. then upload them to the directory!

Hello world!

Saturday, June 10th, 2006

Welcome to the Breeders Market. This is my first post on the site, and I look forward to many more.

In case this is your first time here, the Breeders Market is aimed at all breeders of all ages and all niches. Because I have a little bit of history in the bird breeding areas, that will be the main focus, but there is nothing to stop any dog breeders, cat breeders, horse breeders, or even ferret breeders from using the site.

The main aim is to provide a site that everyone can use to advertise their animals and products, but we also want the site to be known as the place to go to find whatever pet or livestock you are looking for.

We also want the site to be as user friendly as possible, and I hope that we have achieved that goal. If you find anything too hard to use or confusing, please contact us any we will help you as much as we can.

I will be posting some tutorials and tips here on the site, so please stay tuned and get the most out of the Breeder Market Online Directory
