How to post a free classified ad in Lebanon
To post a free classified ad in Lebanon, create an account on Lebanese Sooq, choose the category that matches your item, add clear daylight photographs, write a title that names the item plainly, set a price in US dollars or Lebanese pounds, and publish. Listing is free and the ad goes live after a short review.
Write a title people actually search
The title is what appears in search results and what buyers scan. Name the thing plainly - make, model, year, size - rather than writing a sales pitch.
- Good: "Toyota Corolla 2015 - 120,000 km - Beirut"
- Poor: "Amazing car, must see!!"
- Include the model number or year, because that is what people type
- Do not pad the title with symbols or repeated words
Photographs do most of the work
- Shoot in daylight, against a plain background
- Take several angles, and photograph any damage honestly
- Make the first photograph the clearest full view of the item - it is what shows in search results and in the link preview when the ad is shared
- Avoid screenshots and images taken from other listings
Price it to be found
Buyers filter by price, so an ad with no price or an unrealistic one is filtered out before anyone reads it. Quote in US dollars for higher-value items, which is what the Lebanese market compares in, and mark the price negotiable if it is.
Stay safe when buyers get in touch
- Keep the conversation in the site's messaging until you are ready to meet
- Meet in a public place during daylight
- Be wary of anyone offering to pay above asking price without seeing the item
- Never share bank details, card numbers or verification codes
Faq
Is it free to post a classified ad in Lebanon?
Yes. Posting an ad on Lebanese Sooq is free, including photographs, across all categories - cars, real estate, electronics, appliances and pets.
How many photos should I add to my ad?
Add as many clear photographs as the item warrants - for a car or an apartment, six to ten covering every angle. Ads with several good photographs get substantially more views than ads with one or none.
Why is my ad not getting views?
The usual causes are a vague title that does not match what people search, a missing or unrealistic price, and poor or missing photographs. Rewriting the title to name the item plainly and adding daylight photographs is the fastest fix.
What can I sell on Lebanese Sooq?
Cars, motorcycles and auto parts, apartments, villas and land, mobile phones, tablets and computers, home appliances, and pets - anywhere in Lebanon.
