marketing on craigslist

Expand Post »
Are you allowed to market your website through craigslist? Do they prohibit referring people to URLs from their site?

Re: marketing on craigslist

I don't believe they do prohibit this, although I'm not so sure how well it will do. Be careful you don't end up coming off as a spammer to prospective customers.

Re: marketing on craigslist

It's self-policed. If you spam it, your URL will be removed.

That said, I had tremendous success promoting on GL about two years ago, when the incentivized affiliate programs (free ipods, etc) were launching.

A half hour Enough time for you to edit your post to fix any typos or information you inadvertently might have left out.

Re: marketing on craigslist

You CAN use Craigs List to pull a little bit of traffic.

We devised a marketing system for our website. We pay marketers who run our system a percentage of any ads they happen to sell using our completely automated system.

So here's where Craigs List comes in.

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.

Re: marketing on craigslist

I think they don't allow it. If then also some clever guy did it. and got a link they will soon spot it and the link will be taken off and the I.P. banned
