Where can I find content to fill my empty classifieds and business directory sections on my website?

3 replies
I have a few sites that I've built and am trying to fill them with worthwhile content. I have a business directory and a classifieds plugin installed and would like to know how to quickly get content into these sections. Anybody know something about this or am I asking for way too much?

    Do you have a printer?

    If yes then you should print out flyers and put them outside your local billboards, walmart etc to get started.

    Also, tell you friends to help you out.

    Another awesome way would be to contact non-profits (libraries, clubs, schools, etc) and offer them free inclusion (assuming it's a paid directory).

    If it's not paid, just start cold calling. If it's not costing the business owners anything, you'll be getting high conversions in no time.

    There are several ways to "populate" your site fast:

    (1) You can purchase and import directory data;

    (2) You can pull in a data feed from another classified site; or

    (3) You can outsource data entry of the first 1,000 listings.

    Hope this helps.
