US Free Ads

13 years ago

If you just want to use it to get articles up somewhere it might be worth it. If you are expecting to get sales out of it probably not. I had a few ads up there to test it out for a while and never saw any clicks, nevermind any sales.

Yes it could have just been my horrible copy skills, but I suspect there just isn't that much demand on their site as they lead on. It seems to be more IMer's hitting it to get backlinks and spam ads.

Thanks

I would check out articles posted by other premium authors. If they page they're displayed on has a good pagerank and more views as opposed to those that are from non-premium authors, then I would say yes... only then would it be worth it.

If you are going to being using US Free ads then the premium account is the best option.

You can try it out for free first and see how well it works.

Set up some campaigns and see if it is making you money. If the campaigns from the premium account are making your enough money to cover the cost and some extra profit then it might be worth sticking to it and scaling this method up.

It will also have many benefits by lasting much longer as an ad. I've also seen them get ranked fairly well by Google. And since the ad will last for a while then it has potential to stay ranked and bring in consistent traffic.

I paid for it for a couple years, and although I had a lot of hits, I didn't have any sales. I think, like another poster said, people are clicking for backlinks.

IMO, US free ads is not that effective a marketing tool.

Exactly the same thing happened with my affiliate campaigns

Well take a look at the search engines. How often do you see US Free Ads ranking? I rarely do. I think back in the day it worked but with increased competition etc. it is not so effective any more.

  Maybe you should try linking to a squeeze page instead of a salesletter. See if you can build a list and sell them later.

  I have had 2 premium accounts for over 5 years. At one time, I could use them to rank for keywords but I just realize that they are almost useless for that purpose now. That's why you never see usfreeads ranking in the first page.
  
  As for traffic direct from them, I think you probably can't count on that. In my opinion, their days are over.
  
  Thanks

If it has been that effective, their fee must have been not that cheap.

I used to have a USFreeads premium account back in the day.

It worked well as a traffic getter for a few sites, but not for making direct sales.

Not sure about how effective it is these days.

I had similar results.

I did notice that these pages tend to rank pretty well.

That being said, I am not sure that I would pay to try them again.

I would say almost 2 years ago I tried US Free Ads. Didn't get much of a response. But I feel that's more of a basis to basis thing.

For $10 it's worth a shot in my eyes. Just make sure you take advantage of the time though and test everything out you can.

Thanks

In my experience USFree Ads used to have some juice, but not anymore.

However, its so cheap, it might be worth it, just to throw a few bucks at.
As far as pages ranking well, I don't see that at all now.
