If you are selling a tractor, use a keyword of: Tractor
That doesn't seem too dang difficult to figure out for the buyer or the seller?
If you want to search for any tractor, then you can search for: Tractor
Again, that would be self-evident?
If you are only looking for an Allis, or Ford, or John Deere tractor, then logically you would expect if you search for Allis Chalmers, you will see _Allis Chalmers_ tractors (along with combines, or other AC items).
That would be logical and thinking of others and helpful.
Now I see as how you can put down Ford or New Holland in your keywords if you are selling a Ford 1720, as they came as both. And even if you are selling an older Ford, sure I see how you would list it as both and just be properly listing your goods.
And the Case and IHC relationship can pair those together to where you better off listing Case, IHC, Farmall, and International if you are selling any of the Red machines. That would make good sense to most all.
But if you are selling an AC tractor, that just don't have no relationship to a Ford tractor at all, so you probably tick off more people than attract intrest when you go that far outside of what you got for sale.
Me, I don't bother with it all that much, people are gonna be people and some of them are rude. Just how it is.
But it's noted, and we go on.
Other people have different opinions, and that's fine, ain't no big deal to me.
Not making a big case outta this, but it came up, and that's how I feel:
Such behavior is a little boy jumping up and down and making a fuss, 'cause everyone is supposed to notice him first, and only him, and it don't matter what is on anyone else's mind, we all should look at _his_ ad because he's the center of the world, very very more important than anyone else. Me me me.
Well - blech on those people. But again, that's just my opinion because you asked, don't care what others think and no one has to think like me.

Today's Featured Article - The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's). I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches.
