I love craigslist, but the people on my team are having a hard time with it following their guideline and now they are getting ghosted on all of their ads. I show them my trainings on how to properly post without getting ghosted, but not every is fooling the rules. So is there a better method than craigslist to help my team out. Thanks.

    Well what are you trying to do on CL? If you and your team are spamming the crap out of cl, then you should be ghosted. Usually that only happens when you're trying to be shady and spam.

      I love Craigslist for finding great deals on stuff people are selling, but I noticed it is infested with spam and scams. It's like looking for a needle in a hay stack to find what you need.

        I can convert your Non-Responsive website to Responsive website ... How sweet is that? :)

    Well we are promoting our business opportunity, but we do it in the small Business ads in the service section which should be ok. I have not had any problems with it.

    I don't think we spam, I simply advertise my business in the service section once a day in three different cities and have had no problems. I believe some people on my team do not follow that rule and repeat their ads in the same city and ad section to get red flagged.

    Tell them to try out some paid ads. It's definitely easier to do especially for those who don't have much time and skills to do CL. It definitely takes patience to get noticeable results with CL. They can start for as little as $5 a day doing FB or Youtube PPC for example.

    For the UK there is Gumtree. In the USA there is backpage.

    I think Craigs should offer a "paid offers" portion for affiliate marketers. It would let the affiliates get their piece while still offering services, and they get money.

    Everyone wins.



    PS: There is no replacement for Craigslist really. They are like sub10 alexa I believe, so they are hard to unseat. But backpage & gumtree are the runner ups I think.
