Hello Pat,
Thanks for asking.
There are 444 Adlander accounts as of this moment. The page with offers/request holds 40 ads. As you can see we can't display all members on the front page at the same time.
We designed algorithm which shuffles ads every 30 minutes. Due to the fact that out of 444 Adlanders only around 200 entered their ads, your ad can be found at any time on first four pages. I just found it now on page 2.
The reason why you see old ads is that some of the Adlanders have not posted new ads since they joined as Adlanders. We move to the top for each Adlander one ad which is the newest one.
I hope this explains it.
The only solution to put all people on the first page would be to make 200 ads long, but this would cause that some people would have to wait too long for page to load and they would probably not look at all.
As I said your ad is 25% of the day on the front page. In worst case on the second, third or fourth.
