It's been one week now. I have removed my L$50 classified ad.
To cover the keywords contained in my previous ad, at $50 each, would require L$1200 per week. At about 4 sales a week, this is not an expense I can afford. This is only counting the 24 intentional keywords contained in the ad. Not to mention the other 50 words in the description. Prior to search being disabled, I had been considering increasing my classified budget.
I am now unwilling to pay for any additional time for this ad, as it is only searchable now if someone (unlikely) types in the word "Eclectic" (first word in the name of my business).
Since I do not own the land my shop is on, the effectively removes my store from the grid. In the unlikely event that someone is flying around some first-land infested mainland sim with land set aside for a road but no actual road, and happens to fly around 300m in the air, they MIGHT locate my store... but I doubt it.
I will consider replacing my ads when search functionality is restored.
When will that be?
When will I receive a refund for the last week of non-service?
