When you advertise your rental on BoligPortal, you have the option to promote your ad by purchasing a promotion package. With an ad promotion, you boost your ad's visibility and thereby increase interest from potential tenants.

To promote your ad, simply find it on your profile under 'Advertised rentables' and click on '+ Promote rentable'.

Next, just select the promotion package that suits your needs.



You can ...

  • Get a placement on the top of the search results
  • Make your listing free to contact for everyone
  • Get your listing shared on Facebook and in SearchAgent emails to prospective tenants
  • Get a new listing date so the ad appears as a new listing


Depending on your needs, you can purchase the highlighting package that suits your rental. In this guide, you can read more about each highlighting package and how to purchase it for your listing.

How does Top ad work?

With Top ad, your rental property can be displayed at the very top of the housing seekers' list view.

When a user searches for housing on BoligPortal, the housing ads that match the search and have purchased a top ad will be presented.

A top ad is displayed in the first row of listings when a house seeker is searching for a property.png

There is space for three top ads in each search. If there are more than three top ads matching the search, the ads will be placed in a 'carousel', which continuously rotates. This way, all top ads are equally exposed.

If the prospective tenant clicks on 'More promoted ads', the carousel will rotate, and the tenant will then be presented with three new top ads.

A top ad is displayed when it matches one or more of the user's search criteria, such as area, rent, number of rooms, or area. This increases your chances of being shown at the top of the search results.

In addition to being placed in the top carousel, your ad will also always appear in its original position in the search results.

 


 

How does Free contact work?

On BoligPortal, all prospective tenants must have an active housing search subscription to contact landlords. Free contact means that all prospective tenants can freely contact you via your property ad, regardless of whether they have a paid subscription or not.

When you purchase Free contact, your ad image will feature a green banner with the text 'Free contact'.

Here you can see the free contact banner.png

This way, your ad stands out from the crowd, and it becomes clear to everyone that the paywall has been removed for your rental property.

 


 

How does Exposure work?

With the Exposure highlighting option, you get the full benefit and maximum exposure of your ad across all our channels.

 

You get ...

  • All benefits from Top Ad + Free contact
  • Visibility in similar ads
  • Visibility in searches in nearby areas
  • Segmented advertising on Facebook
  • Advertising in Search Agent emails to home seekers

How does Exposure+ work?

Exposure+ is the largest and most rewarding promotion package BoligPortal offer. It gives you all the benefits of the Exposure package – including Top ad, Free contact, and access to the Rental Data tool.


With Exposure+ you get:

  • Free contact + Top ad + Exposure
  • The ad on page 1 again (activated at the time of purchase)
  • Renewed date on your ad (activated at the time of purchase)
  • The ad in relevant Search Agent emails to home seekers
  • Visibility under similar ads in the 'Other homes in the area' section
  • Segmented advertising on Facebook
  • Free access to the Rental Data tool, where you gain insights into market rent prices down to street level. Read more about Rental Data here.


Eksponering+ is the ultimate boost for your ad

A promotion with Exposure+ is an effective option for you if you're experiencing declining interest in your property because the ad gets lost in the crowd.

It is also a good tool for you if you are making changes to your ad – for example, if you add new pictures, adjust the rent, allow pets, or install a washing machine in the rental – to attract house seekers to your property.
