Want FREE Targeted Traffic? Craigslist Can Help!

by Anthony Bae

Recently Ive experienced that craigslist.org actually helps in getting targeted traffic to my website. I wish Ive known this earlier when I had my own comparison shopping website. Posting ads on craigslist is free--yes, other than a number of states that craig charges for job offering posts, every other categories in all 50 states plus couple of dozen other countries are FREE! If Ive gotten your attention in giving you the idea of advertising your site on craigslist, now you have to read on.

You will get traffic even though you post 1 ad on a category thats relevant to your ad. However, the more posts you make, the more exposure you are giving yourself, which equal more traffic. But whatever you do, dont SPAM! Craigslist has strict rules against spammers, and worst comes to worse, they will block your IP so you cant even access their site--which means you will never be able to post ads on craigslist again! Not only do craigslist employees flag your ads and delete them, regular visitors like us have an option to vote on whether your post is relevant or irrelevant to the category. Even if they are in the right category, if they see similar posts that directs to you, they will vote for SPAMMING, and will be deleted. Surf around craigslist.org for yourself and you will know what Im talking about.

However to avoid being flagged or being accused of spamming? Dont make so many posts in a short period of time. Not only that, make all your ads differently; different titles and different descriptions. Craigslist wont allow you to post similar ads regardless of the category, country, or state. If you want to get the exposure you are looking for, be smart and post seldom in different states and categories with its unique titles and descriptions. That way, you may have a couple of your ads flagged and deleted, but majority of your ads will still be up on craigslist to get you the traffic.

One more important thing is that you shouldnt make it so obvious that you are posting on craigslist to advertise. Dont just put a link there and say "visit here" or "click here". Give readers something to read to get their attention--lead them to your site the right way!

Craigslist.org should be one of your sources of advertising. Dont rely on it too much because in order for one to avoid getting flagged and deleted every so often, there is a limit to how far one can go with posting ads on the site. But since its free, do take advantage of it!
