This is the recommended feed format to use for including your classifieds in our search engine. By using this format, your ads will appear more quickly than with other formats and you will have control over all relevant information associated with your classifieds in our engine
Your feed can contain any number of ads and can be updated at whatever frequency you desire (daily, weekly, monthly), our system will automatically adapt.You can also provide all your classifieds in a single feed even if they are dispatched into multiple categories.
Tip: Please note that HTML tags cannot be added in XML feeds. You can put [CDATA] tags though.
