I'm currently on the bench after my last contract finished and to enjoy the time off, thought i'd sell the SV for something fruitier.

Wrote a web page for the bike which, as i was bored, got turned into a full classifieds site as i like to tinker. If anyones selling, feel free to try www.ridetrader.co.uk (http://www.ridetrader.co.uk). Costs nowt to advertise and i'll be marketing the thing over the next few weeks at Oulton and various bike sites (reckon MCN would mind if i take out an 8.95 bike ad to plug it? ;)).

Couple of issues that should be sorted over the next day or so are, looks bad on iPhone and graphics need sorting as visuals are a bit ropey, asides from that should be fully functional and am currently bunging on a load of SEO enhancements to get your bike sold.

Anyhow, if anyone gets the urge to advertise, if you could let me know any feedback good or bad and anything you thought could be improved. Not going to be a big money spinner but hope to get a few quid from traders once its up there. PS, admin - posted this under the assumption it would not be seen as spam as is not intended as such.

Ta,

Durbs

Thx, just got to work out how to market the thing now, methinks i'm going to have to put my hand in my pocket for a bit of advertising which i really didn't want to do given i'm currently not working (plus want the cash for nice big new thou!).
