Let’s face it — everyone would like their advert to stay at the top of the list all the time, but that simply isn’t possible. Adverts are displayed strictly in numerical order by advert number, and this cannot be changed. Editing or modifying an advert will not change its number or position, and adverts cannot be manually moved or bumped.
This keeps the system fair for everyone, especially those advertisers who have just posted a new advert.
The only way to return an advert to the top of the listings is to replace (renew) it. When renewed, it becomes a new advert, receives the latest advert number, and naturally moves back to the top of the list until the next advert is submitted.
