Hello guys,

I have a plan to start a niche website (adsense mini site). I am thinking about doing nothing but promotion on classified websites alone. But its true that if we stop the process it will stop the visits. But I think if conversions are there it would be great to continue. What do you think? I have tried some simple ads and it did work great!

Feel free to share your experience!

    Well, it really depends on what you are marketing on classified ads.

    For example, if you are marketing a home business type opportunity on a classified ad site such as Craigislist. you may want to post an ad for this opportunity 1-2 times a day.

    Other classified sites such as Usfreeads is nice, because it you can actually play with the HTML and wording to maximize the Search Engine Optimization of your Ad. Also Usfreeads is friendly with google search engines

    My personal advise is to keep up the classifieds, but at the same time creating content and proper keyword optimization to create traffic for your site or blog.

    In the end how you are going to make money from an ad-sense mini site will be from organic traffic from Search Engine Optimization

    This is my personal experience on the matter

      I think with usfreeads if you place an ad for the Atlanta, GA area, your ad will also be visible to the entire US. That's how they used to do it.

        But they don't allow free users to place ads over multiple cities I guess. Isn't it?

      Would the return on the adsense sites be worth the cost of the advertising, you will need quite a few clicks to make back what you spend on usfreeads.

      but i guess if you say it works for you then good work.

        But there are lots of free ad networks right? The only problem I feel is the ad expires often and we have to update frequently.
