Craigslist posting is not ALWAYS showing up.. why?

Have you guys had posts in Craigslist that just don't show up in the listings even though it is not flagged?

Sometimes, I have to repost the same post again for it to show up. Is this something to do with Craigslist or my posts are stuck in their filters?

It's like a 50/50 chance of it being post.

Any thoughts?

    I've used Craigslist in the past. I have two 'beefs' with craiglist. The first is that they hate affiliate marketers and list building, or in their words, "a pyramid scheme"...

    The second reason is because I've never had a single ad response on Craigslist, also as a bonus I find that they are unreliable for just about everything, including posts disappearing.

    For those reasons I am going to recommend you to stop using Craigslist and switch to a site like Kijiji, I have had a 100% success rate with successful responses to ads from Kijiji.

    If you're set on Craigslist, then goodluck dealing with them.

    Cheers

    Man oh man, I really hate Craigslist sometimes. I have given up posting on there. What it is good for is getting gigs and putting up backlinks.

    But to answer your question, CL is so picky when it comes to what they will and will not allow. Plus if you get the "Flag Patrol" on your case it will be gone in 2 seconds flat.
