Creating a successful classified ads portal does not have to be a difficult and complicated task.
If you plan to launch a website that is supposed to present ads, it is worth using a ready-made solution as a template for Joomla. In this article, we will describe how to quickly and efficiently set up an advertising website using a template, and what kind of opportunities it gives.
Creating a website of this type is first of all an opportunity to generate a traffic on the website and the basis for earning money.
Presenting adverts and the ability to generate profits are two important elements guaranteed by DJ-Classifieds component.
This Joomla extension allows you to build comprehensive ad pages in an efficient and effective way. All templates from the "advertising portal" category are based on this component. It allows you to create a web page without advanced programming knowledge.
This solution gives you a full control over ads settings, no matter of what kind portal you want to build. This may be a similarity page to OLX or Ebay, a portal with job offers, car sales, local classifieds or real estate ads.
This is not all, it is worth paying attention to highly specialized portals or niche industries, which also offer considerable opportunities and a big chance of success.
Below we present two examples of web pages based on the DJ-Classifieds component. These are custom-made projects for our clients, they come from our portfolio:
It is worth adding that we can enrich the DJ-Classifieds extensions with selected commercial applications. At the moment, these apps are available:
Along with the purchased template, customers receive a copy of the demo version. If you want to get an exact 1:1 copy of the demo site (recommended), just use the included quickstart package. In this way, you’ll avoid configuring everything from scratch.
We encourage you to watch a video showing step by step the installation and explaining what to do. More information can be found in the installation section, which you can find here.
In many cases, there is more than one version of the demo page for a given template. Purchasing a template guarantees that you will get all available existing versions. For example, the JM Car Classifieds template offers an example for car classifieds websites with search module in header.
In case you want to configure the website yourself or you need to change the graphic design or layout, the package with the template for installation is included.
It contains folders with quickstart.zip, installation package of free extensions (modules, components, plugins), graphic design template (.PSD) and two installation files for the template.
Making changes is easier than you expect because our templates are based on the EF4 functional framework, which is a powerful tool with a lot of useful settings to personalize the look of the web page.
Our Joomla templates for the advertising portal have a sufficient number of options, allowing you to modify the page according to your needs (eg. Color change, arrangement of modules or page layout). This is possible thanks to the EF4 framework, which includes such useful tools as Layout Builder or theme customizer.
Layout builder gives you the ability to customize the template layout for computers and mobile devices, and a Theme customizer makes it much easier to modify the template - you just need to select parameters from the list!
