New features released Monday 14th January

What’s New?

Since launching the beta SetYourRate.com site back in November we continue to receive hundreds of new feature requests and suggestions for improving the experience and usefulness of the site – thank you again for taking the time to send your suggestions! Today we released several of the most common requests we received:  

NEW Price on Application Pricing option for Service Profiles 

Service providers can now set the rate for your service profile as “Price on Application”. Previously you were restricted to “Hourly Rate” and “Fixed Rate” only. 

This means service providers who offer a customised service based on unique customer requirements, such as website design or wedding photography, now benefit from the extra clarity in their pricing for potential customers. 

Service providers can update existing profiles to “Price On Application” or the other available rate options via the “Edit Profile” screen which is accessed via “My Profile” from the main menu. Please note you need to be a registered user and logged in to access this feature.  

NEW Manage Images on Service Profiles: 

Service providers can now add, remove and edit the image for your service profiles.

This feature was requested to enable service providers to upload a photo, or image of your product and service at anytime. You can manage your service profile images via the “Edit Profile” screen which is accessed via “My Profile” from the main menu. Please note you need to be a registered user and logged in to access this feature.  

NEW Manage Keywords for Service Profiles 

Service providers can now add, remove and edit the keywords used to trigger service profiles in the search results. The keywords service providers enter support the search algorithm in presenting relevant service profiles to searches on the site, meaning better targeting for service providers as well. 

Service providers can manage their service profile keywords via the “Edit Profile” screen which is accessed via “My Profile” from the main menu. Please note you need to be a registered user and logged in to access this feature.  

NEW Subtitle for Service Profiles 

Service providers can now include a subtitle for their service profile, the subtitle is also displayed in the search results bringing more service information, benefits and relevancy to users. 

Service providers can add, remove or edit subtitles via the “Edit Profile” screen which is accessed via “My Profile” from the main menu. Please note you need to be a registered user and logged in to access this feature. 

NEW Manage your Account Image 

All registered users can now add, remove and edit the image used for their account. Your account image is used if you write a review for a service provider or request a service. 

Add, remove or edit your account image via the “My Details” screen which is accessed via “My Profile” from the main menu. Please note you need to be a registered user and logged in to access this feature. 

NEW Service Profile images displayed in search results and directory 

Service providers now receive further benefit from their service profile image as they will be displayed in search results and the general directory listings creating further appeal and relevancy for users.  

Other features requested will be shortly announced in a separate post. Please get in touch with any suggestions you have for SetYourRate.com.
