Craigslist Marketers group

5 replies
Hi everyone.
lately i had a chance to get familiar with Craigslist from marketer perspective.
What I found - that is totally different way of marketing, comparing to all other resources.

Definitely, Craigslist has very strong traffic steam but trying to jump in takes a lot of skills and efforts.

The main idea of this thread is to get together as much people as possible to share and discuss any ideas of working on Craigslist.

Being members of this forum already means that we are not competitors so I believe we not going to do anything bad to each other, talking about this way of promoting.

Any Questions are Welcome!!!!

    I'm experimenting with Craigslist right now, and I'm finding image ads work well than the standard text ads. But I'm having trouble with the best times to post and how may times per day?

      Well - what i found out - images needs to be hosted somewhere - not on CL
      Besides, thats better to make them clickable.
      There are some information in internet about how to post on CL - some good some useless

    There is conflicting info on the CraigsList site. They don't allow externally hosted image files anymore although it says you can in there html guide. You have to use the CL image upload service.

    CL upload image tool is your best bet and start getting use to it. I used to post with externally hosted images, some sections it still works ok (some ghosted, some flagged by CL) and in some sections it doesn't work. So I just ditched the externally hosted images and complied with the CL uploader. Basic text ads and CL uploader, nothing fancy. CL isn't portrayed as a fancy site, neither do they want they're posts fancy and filled with html.
