    Posting on craigslist is a numbers game. Even if you post a legitimate ad on there, your competition may start flagging it and it will eventually get taken down. Craigslist lets their users police the site and anyone can go into an ad and flag it.

    I'm not going to say here how to do it, but one person could get it done by using some trickery.

    So, you are going to have to deal with posting multiple times. Now, you just need to make sure that it is legitimate and benefits the community and you post in the right category. Also, if you are doing an affiliate program, most of them do not like you using Craigslist so you need to check with them first.

  • Read their TOS. What you are proposing is SPAM to them, and no matter how legit you want to make it look ... it's still SPAM and it's unwelcome.

    Craigs is SPAM Central so you'll probably fit right in.

    Interesting how the rules only apply to the other guy right?
