How effective is marketing on Craigslist, Google Base, and USFreeAds??

4 replies
Of course, all of these sites offer free advertising. So, you can post your articles and then your site link or your affiliate link. Is it worthed to post your articles on any of these three sites? Is anyone getting any good conversion rate on either or both of these sites? Will it improve your site ranking?

How often and how many articles do you post on any of these two sites? I know it's a pain to post one article per city at a time on Craigslist (You can only post to one city at a time per post. You cannot choose multiple cities at once.) How many cities do you cover?

Tell me about your experience with any of these three sites including your traffic stats. Thanks.

    I mainly use Craigslist, but you have to post everyday. Also depending on what you are posting. I usually use the General Community Section for Marketing Promotion, and the Services section for Yard work Service for myself as well as House cleaning and painting service for my Mom.

    Search the threads for those specific items (freeads, craigslist). You will find a ton of information on how people really feel about each.

    Let me know if it works out and what the results were, I've been thinking about trying this for a while but haven't found the time.

      Free classified sites are more effective when promoting a specific product (especially a product that is discounted or significantly less than retail). They tend to be a lot less effective in recruiting to mlms, biz opps, aff. programs, etc.
