Navigating the Vivastreet homepage

The homepage is the best place to start at Vivastreet. Designed for easy navigation, it offers a clear starting point for all users.

When you open the homepage, you’re met with two main options: searching or posting an advert.

The search bar is located prominently in the middle of the page. Simply type in keywords to find what you need. You can also use the filters to narrow your search by location, price, or other criteria.

However, if you’re unsure what to type, you can use the category tabs to browse by category to explore specific listings, such as ‘Property’, ‘Jobs’, or ‘Adult’.

 

 

Want to post an advert? Click the orange ‘Post your Ad’ button in the top right corner.

Finding what you need

No matter what you’re looking for, Vivastreet is here to make the search seamless. We’ll quickly break the searching process down into a few key elements.

How to search

Searching is easy once you’re in the swing of things.

To get started, use the search bar to type in keywords, such as “cleaning services in Manchester”.

Select a category from the drop-down menu to narrow down your search. You can also apply filters to refine your results further.

Now, you should have a page of relevant results.

Understanding advert details

If you’re not used to classified ads, it can be tough to understand the results at a glance.

Here are the key marketing elements you need to know:

  • Titles – Offer quick overviews of the adverts
  • Descriptions – Provide detailed specifics; always read this carefully to get the full picture
  • Contact information – Allows you to reach out to the poster via SMS or telephone

Most adverts also include images to give you extra insight into their products or services.

Posting an advert

Not looking for anything? You can also use Vivastreet to sell an item, offer a service, or list a job.

Posting an advert is very simple, but first, you’ll need to make an account. Then click the orange ‘Post an Ad’ button on the homepage.

Choose a category and subcategory for the advert, fill in all required fields, including title and description, and add photos. You’ll also need to set a price and location.

 

 

Pro tip: Always carefully review the advert before you publish to ensure the information is correct!

Extra tips for posting a Vivastreet ad

You can make sure your advert has more success by following the ad best practices. These include:

  • Using clear and concise titles
  • Including detailed descriptions with accurate information – ask yourself what you’d need to know if you were searching
  • Adding high-quality images to attract attention

Advert promotion options

Vivastreet offers paid options to boost your ad’s visibility, such as featuring it on the homepage or highlighting it within search results.

There are four ways to promote your ad: featured ads, highlighted ads, reposted ads, and combined ads.

Promoted adverts require payment via a premium advert plan. The team will approve your advert, and then you’ll receive a confirmation email.

Safety tips

Vivastreet is a secure platform, but it’s always good practice to know how to stay safe online – especially when buying or selling products and services.

Firstly, you’ll want to be aware of scams. In general, you should stay cautious of deals that seem too good to be true. Users must also be wary of sharing sensitive personal or financial information and always verify the authenticity of the seller or buyer before proceeding.

Next, you must know how to stay safe when meeting service providers. For safe meetings, choose public places for in-person interactions.

You may also want to bring a friend or inform someone you trust about your plans and thoroughly inspect items before making any payment.

Lastly, you should also prioritise secure payments. Use reputable methods like bank transfers, Neosurf, or PayPal, which have buyer protections.

Troubleshooting & support

Vivastreet prioritizes user safety and satisfaction. If any issues arise, you can report them and contact the support team.

  • Reporting problems – You can report suspicious listings using the ‘Report Ad’ button. The team will review the ad and remove it if it doesn’t meet the guidelines.
  • Customer support – The Vivastreet customer support team can handle any problems or account-related issues. You can send a message via the contact page or call the Vivastreet team on 020 7362 9499 (Mon-Fri 8 am to 7 pm).
