Spanish term or phrase: Meses de publicación
Hi all,

I am translating some content for a website and I am not quite sure how to translate the following sentence so it sounds natural to an English-speaking audience:

Perfil de empresa
2 meses de publicación de la ficha profesional en el portal (...)

Perfil de empresa
6 meses de publicación de la ficha profesional en portal Experttos Canarias, más 2 meses extra gratuitos.

So basically they're listing the different options they offer in terms of memberships, for instance with the second one your profile would remain available on the website for 6 months and you would get 2 extra months for free.

My try:

Post your professional profile in Experttos Canarias for six months, plus 2 extra months free of charge.

For some reason it doesn't sound completely right to me. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

English translation:List for [XX] months
Explanation:
This is how I would translate the entire phrase: List your professional profile on the Experttos Canarias site for six months, plus two additional months free of charge.

That being said, "list/listing" are common terms in the US. I'm unsure if they're common in the UK, and the target variant isn't stated.

6 month listing


Explanation:
My personal preference for visual purposes would be to stick to the format of the original text (Number first, description second) so it is easier for the reader to digest and compare information quickly.

Example sentence(s):
  • 2 month listing of your professional profile...
  • 6 month listing of your professional profile on Experttos Canarias + 2 months extra free of charge.
