you are doing this with 1 craigslist account? do you care to explain in a little more detail

Unless you are willing to plunk down serious money on sophisticated software, proxies, and VPAs, I highly doubt manually hitting craigslist is the way to go. Also, there is already so much SPAM on that site that many of its users are probably DESENSITIZED to such drive by spam.

Sounds interesting, but probably not a very interesting way to make money, unless you can make big profit which i doubt.

I find it a bit hard to believe that CL would not have "Ghosted" your account pretty quickly for cross posting. They are very strict when it comes to that and also very good at detecting it. Once they do find you and slap your account it may seem like your ads are going live (the even give you a link to your ghosted ad) but they are not actually viewable through the main sites if you navigate manually.

It's a very effective system for reducing the number of spammers. Those spammers often even continue cross posting for a fair while before they figure out nobody is seeing their ads.


If anyone in this thread does want a real way to earn money online within 24 hours pm me or click the link in my sig. You will make money. Not a massive amount straight away (not going to try and feed you any BS there) but some money and it will grow over time and more quickly if you use our training.

This is totally free, no money required at all to get started.

Hi

Having used craigslist in the past without issue and as a good source of leads, and not jumping to the first negative conclusion I can think of to shoot down the OP, this is what I got out of his original post and follow-up.

1. You don't need 100s of accounts and proxies because you are not spamming craigslist, you are using it as many, many other businesses do.

2. The ad clearly states what to expect after the link/contact. Deceptive ads can get flagged quickly by the community. But if the same ad is not appearing every second line, it won't be as readily flagged as spam.

3. The destination is not directly to an offer, but to a specific custom landing page designed by the OP to articulate/presell the offer without appearing to be blatant spam.

4. The OP does not rely solely on Craigslist but alse posts on other free classified networks like BackPage, which is more tolerant of these type of ads than Craiglist.

5. The OP supplements his 'free' advertising with paid adverts and placement. This really works well on BackPage and Kijiji (in Canada)

6. The OP posted everything you need to know to replicate his success. Once you know it is craigslist/bp, free/paid, custom landing page and CPA offers you have enough to get all the rest from Google or searching WF without buying a WSO.

If I am incorrect in my assumptions, or missing a big piece perhaps the OP could correct me or add any missing points.

Like everyone here, my post is based 100% on assumptions.

But my assumption is the OP achieved the success he claims.

I've never done anything with Craigslist so I wouldn't know how strict they are on spam etc but why don't you post the method here as a lot of people are questioning your method if it's legit or not.

After all, you don't need the money, you made $300+ on your first day right?
