What’s the most frustrating part of buying or selling on Kijiji?
Long Renewal Windows: The ad renewal cycle should not exceed 7 to 10 days. When sellers are locked out from renewing their ads quickly, they feel helpless and often forget about their listings entirely. This long waiting period frustrates users, lowers their interest in the platform, and drives them to search for or cross-post on competitor platforms. Shortening this duration will keep users engaged and noticeably boost activity metrics on your platform’s traffic graph.
Missing “Pending” Status: There should be a “Pending” or “Sale Pending” tag available for items where a deal is struck but the pickup is still awaited. This status creates a sense of urgency (hype) for potential buyers and visually demonstrates live, real-time activity on the platform.**
