Enhance your listing and stand out from the crowd!!
 
Xstreet has different ways you can help boost your sales by adding a little pizzazz to your products. Which one will you choose?
 
Enhancement costs are listed in the article describing [[Linden_Lab_Official:Xstreet_fees|Xstreet fees]].
 
== Bold ==
Notice how the eye is drawn to '''bold text'''? Imagine that on your listing! Bold text is an excellent way to increase exposure and sales. Try bolding your listings today!
 
== Border ==
Set your listing apart from the masses with an eye-catching border. Perfect for making your listings ''"pop!"'' Get your merchandise noticed with the power of a border.
 
== Highlight ==
Don't let your listing get lost in the background. A soft highlight, a little splash of color, grabs the eye and gets your listings noticed.
 
== Featured Item ==
With a Featured Item, you'll get the benefit of all three Basic Enhancements (Bold, Highlight, Border) with more effective "Top of the Page" positioning (explained below) at the top of the page, plus a label. And, if that's not enough, you'll also get a Featured Category spot in Categories that have such an offering. Example:

"Top of the Page" positioning means your item will remain on whatever pages it would normally be on, but it will be at the top of that page, not buried further down.
 
For example, let's say you decided to add a Feature Enhancement to "Super Maze", which is listed under '''Recreation and Entertainment > Theme and Amusement Parks'''. As a Featured Item, the following things happen:
 
# "Super Maze" is displayed in the list of Featured Items for '''Recreation and Entertainment''' (the list of Featured Items that shows up when you click on '''Recreation and Entertainment''').
# Under '''Theme and Amusement Parks''' where it "lives", "Super Maze" is moved to the top of whatever page it would show up on normally. For instance, if you saw it on the fourth page of '''Theme and Amusement Parks''' before it was Featured, it would still be on that page, but it would be at the top instead of further down.
 
Why is this better than moving them to the front of the overall search results? If you search on '''Art''', you'll find thousands of listings, which means there could easily be pages and pages of Featured items, which doesn't help anyone stand out. However, if your item is one of just a few Featured items on a page, the odds of its being noticed are much greater.
 
== Homepage Featured ==
{{KBtip|''The ultimate enhancement!'' This is the best way to get the exposure you desire.}}
 
The Homepage Featured Enhancement includes all the benefits of Highlight and Featured Item, with the added bonus of being included in the rotation of Featured items on the Xstreet Homepage. Example:

Homepage Featured listings must have at least one associated image.
