    Most likely your CPA network wont allow it. Make sure and read their policies. For example Neverblue CPA Network says this:

    Affiliate must not place Neverblue ad codes on, advertise or otherwise promote any offers via third party website internal communications systems, message boards, chat rooms, or free classified sites including but not limited to MySpace.com, Facebook.com, Tagged.com, Craigslist, Backpage, Yahoo Answers etc.

    Yes more and more networks have these same terms. Sometimes they are more flexible if you drive classified traffic to your landing page or blog and then sell from there.

    Alternatively, you can drive classified traffic to your squeeze page and then build a list and promote via email.

    Yep, just gotta be careful and not break the terms of the network or all that work and money can go down the drain in no time.

    From Anywhere is a big statement. If you re-read what everyone is telling you, check with your affiliate manager before you use classified traffic in any method, including driving it to your blog.

    I've discussed using articles, Web 2.0, and videos to drive traffic to my pages, but have not asked about classifieds with my AM.

      Asking your CPA manager is always the safest.

      With that said, Jim Cockrum's book "Silent Sales Machine" talks about driving traffic off eBay. I don't see a money back guarantee on his landing page but it's only $5 as of this post. It may be what you're looking for.

    Yes each network and more specifically each affiliate manager will have their own policy. If you are brand new, then for some CPA networks if you even mention the term craigslist they will freak. As you build a relationship and have account history, then they normally become more flexible, assuming you are transparent with them. Even then, many still wont let you.

    If you are new with a network I wouldn't even go there.

    I know many people promoting dating offer using w4m craigslist leads , and few other offers using job leads. They are earning huge, which is not possible in ppc or ppv or other method.

    create a blog with more cpa offers related to a certain subject, analyze those offers and review them and then use classified site to get traffic to your site...
