An “SEO” title that converts

Your title = your positioning + your click rate.

✅ To do

  • Keyword first : “iPhone 14 Pro 256 GB”, “BMW Series 3 2018”.
  • + advantage : “like new”, “guarantee”, “1st owner”.
  • + location (optional): “Lausanne”, “VD”, “1205”.

⛔ Avoid

  • Vague titles: “for sale”, “good deal”.
  • Too many CAPS/emojis.
  • Key information missing (model, capacity, year, etc.).

🔥 “Top market” examples

iPhone 14 Pro 256 GB — new condition — Lausanne
BMW 3 Series 2018 — 1st owner — maintenance OK — VD

Photos: the rule of 10

You sell with your eyes. Photo 1 does 80% of the job.

📸 Photo checklist (copy and paste)

Clean main photo (light background)
Front/back/sides
Details: brand, label, reference
Flaws (yes, that’s reassuring)

Tip: natural light + no flash + no filters. You gain trust.

Description: simple structure

Readable = credible. Credible = messages.

🧠 “Top of the market” template

Summary: 1 sentence (what + condition + reason for sale).
Features: list (brand, model, size, year, accessories, etc.).
Condition: mentions the faults (this avoids 50% of the questions).
Discount & payment: city/NPA, slots, TWINT/cash.

An honest ad = fewer returns = better reputation = better sales rate.

Price: how to set it

Price too low = suspicion. Price too high = silence.

💰 Method in 60 seconds

  1. Compare 5 similar ads (canton + state + accessories).
  2. Take it median price as a basis.
  3. To sell quickly: place yourself -3% to -8% below the median.

Tip: a “clean” price (eg: 490 CHF) converts better than 500 CHF.
