Why, you ask? Because it's free and many free classified sites get thousands of hits per day. Most have search capability, which means you have a good change at someone seeing your ads. Many webmasters have used them continuously with great success. Most marketing experts and marketing E-books recommend placing free classifieds daily.
Why daily? Because most free classified sites will place new ads on top, which means in a day or so, your ad will get pushed down. Also, most free classifieds sites will generate a new page for your new ad, which allows for search engine bots to index your ad making it more visible to the public. Can you image your exposure by placing one ad each day to 10 or more "free classifieds" sites? It is also worth noting that free classifieds enable you to attract targeted visits, which we all know is the best visit to get.
In order for you to get the most exposure, you must write quality ad copy. Treat your ad like it is an Ezine article, just not as long. Remember to use as many keywords as you can in the ad title as well as in the ad body. By doing this you will better your chances of getting selected by the site search and by someone searching from the Internet.
Don't try to make a hard sale from your ad, instead give enough information in order to entice the person to visit your site. Your site is where you have space to provide all of your product's detail information.
Here is a good example of a well-written ad:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Title => Selection of "Choice Work from Home Opportunities"

Notice the keywords in the title and body of the ad? Also, there is just enough information to tease you with a link at the end to invite you over for a visit.
A Google search using "free classifieds" will give you hundreds of places to submit your ads but only post on those sites that are page ranked at 5 or better. By not doing so you will most likely be wasting your time. |
