Styxtrader.com, of Port Hueneme, CA, announced the launch of a new web site they hope will become the search engine of choice in the world of extreme sports. They are a classified ad site for surf, skate and snow sports where users can advertise new or used equipment such as surfboards, kite boards, skateboards, art, clothing, or whatever.
Customers can get online and fill out a form, upload pictures of the items they're selling, and have people all over the world looking in no time. The site was specifically designed for companies, shop owners, manufacturers, artists, photographers, surfers, skaters, and snowboarders. Shops can have their products seen by the public, and will also be able to redirect traffic from Styxtrader.com to their own sites.
"We are dedicated to keeping our site pure and visually beautiful to inspire use of the site," a Styxtrader press release said. The site was "specifically designed to be in the spirit of the surfing and sport community."
Styxtrader.com does not warehouse any products. For a flat fee, the user can list the product, and the buyer deals directly with the advertiser with no middle man. Banner ads in different sizes are also available for those who want greater exposure of their product or business. Now, instead of having to sell used surfboards by displaying them in the shop, owners can reach the surfer down the street or on the other side of the world. Items can be categorized by region, by the type of merchandise or service, or by sport.
For more information, visit the site, or call John Doeppl at (805) 201-0611.
