There is great traffic to be had using Craigslist. What you describe to attract marketers is just one way (though I think the job section of CL is the worst spammed of all the categories). I think soon CL will charge all cities to post in jobs, which is now the case in over 7 cities.

I think there is room for commercial buyers and marketers to find a voice on CL - it just needs to retain what makes it so attractive to users.

With that in mind, research will soon show that overposting and posting in the wrong categories will actually hurt you. Just as we cap impressions in online media for display and text advertising, the same should be done with your ads on CL.

So, in other words, you lie, right? Sure fire way to get booted from CL.

Who lies? In every faction of marketers there are those that go about things in an unethical and unreasonable manner. There are many advertisers on Craigslist that provide great products and services that users love and do not feel the need to spam or lie to succeed.

As for what Craigslist will allow - Craigslist knows marketers use the system and they welcome them, so long as they follow the rules.

I'll buy that if these posts go under gigs, but not if they're being posted as jobs (which is what it says) because there's no job and no intention of making a job offer. Be honest in your intent is what I'm advocating.

It seems everyone is selling there but no one is buying.

I am posting on craigslist for long time. I promoted various products on various categories, e-book to laptop, work from home to government jobs, services to gigs.
Genuine products/services get great success on craigslist while dubious e-books/work form home advertising get flagged so quickly. Still even such dubious campaigns can get success for limited time. You need to apply some technique. Visit this http://enamul.info/craigslist-ad-posting-tips.php if you are interested.

We go and advertise job openings for marketers (no experience necessary) and the traffic rolls in....and on top of that, it's USEFUL traffic...people surf my site, sign up to be a marketer, THEN market my site for me...only getting paid, when I get paid.

Genius.
Hi,
Do you have a marketing company you reccomend that places multi postings on Craigslist?
Thanx Toni

I would assume it would be like those eBay middle people who list your auctions for you? Remember, there are a couple of Craigslist sections that are pay-to-post so I'm not sure how that would work out.
