Hey All,
We need some advice. Can any of you help???
My husband and I have been working on building our business QuickSaleListings for the better part of a year now and finally we are getting ready to open the doors –So to speak- it is an online listing site!!! So, we are now looking into online marketing right now and have heard that posting ads on craigslist is extremely successful in bringing your site traffic if you can get past the system change issues. That being said we signed up and went onto craigslist to see what other ads we could find. We really just wanted to get an idea of what type of businesses were posting ads on craigslist. We found that there were quite a few and even ran across an ad from a craigslist ad poster company. We are new at this and are wondering if any of you can provide us with some advice on this, so we can determine if this should be one of our marketing strategies.
Have any of you tried posting on craigslist to advertise your company?
We contacted that craigslist posting company whose ad we ran across on craigslist. They claim they can post thousands of posts a day and that they have a solution for the ghosting issues people have been having. They also have pretty cheap rates. My issue is that I can’t seem to find any information on the company other than the fact that I see their ads on craigslist.
Have any of you ever heard of this company?
Auto CL Posters
Any information you can provide would be much appreciated as we are trying to get some major marketing out for our business and need to move on it pretty quickly.
Thanks Again,
Melissa Thomas

i would call a "posting company" simply spammer.

... and i wouldnt give any advice about a company that spams on craigslist.

do it or dont do it... your decision...
 
Yes, I can help

#1 Your text color is annoying
#2 Try breaking your post into things called paragraphs
#3 Don't spam a forum full of webmasters and professional spammers
#4 Post pictures of your boobs if you really need assistance.

Have a Wickedfire fucking day!
 
I post ads on CL all the time... not quite the same shit everyone else posts... dating and other crap... with a pretty good success rate.

Quick Sale Listing? Real Estate? What is your "niche" or rather what are you trying to sell...

Don't pay for the fucking bots that post... you're going to get nailed every time and wont even know it, YOU will think your ads are up, but they're not.

The only real special features like proxies (which will take days if you wanted to post 1000 threads) and their awesome random phrases (scrapes wikipedia for random bullshit to put in the ad as "transparent" so it looks unique compared to the other 999 posts you just made about selling widgets.

Shoot me a PM with as much detail as possible... What you are specifically marketing, a few demographics... male/female... age...

We can talk more, I just need to know if this is something worth teaching to you... In my experiences, CL can be gold or a bitch....

Like I said, PM me some details

not sure whether this is spam or just someone very naive, but the text is black because she copy pasted it out of Microsoft Word 2007. When I go to edit her post it shows Calibri as the font, which only ships with Vista & Office 2007
 
WOW. Nice language children...

Although I feel I do not owe any of you an explaination I willd efend myself as you all have felt it your right to judge me and slander myself and my thread.

I'm very new at forum board posting and in an effort to get a diverse audience without having to spend endless hours posting my question over and over again I created a message from word. I'mnow figuring out that there is a wholelot of spammers on the internet these days and it is very easy to be misconstrued as such. I also put my messages into word to spellcheck them.

If your intention is to continue to slander my name and my thread you need not reply.

If you intention is to offer serious advice please feel free to share your thoughts.

Thanks!

First of all don't call us children, we're not children. Calling us children will make us want to "slander" you more.:nopenope: Secondly, I don't believe your a spammer, just a n00b. It's ok to be a n00b, but being as you are such, you should get off your fucking high horse, crawl the floor and beg for the knowledge that the all mighty hold around you. If you can get over yourself for 2 seconds, you might learn something. But for now, to be safe you should probably post your questions in the newbie section. You may still get beat up but it's usually a little less severe.

Good luck and welcome to wickedfire. :D

Guessing you didn't spell check that post?

I'm sure you have had more mature responses from the numerous other forums you have spammed.. I mean posted on, but if you look up at the top left there's a button labelled "search", click it and type "craigslist"...

Amongst many other threads about CL you will find a recent one by Jon about a recent crackdown there.

It's a shame you don't seem to have the intelligence to read a bit here before posting (to at least get a feel for the place) and even after a couple of direct replies to your question you have chosen to insult us all rather than take on board that advice.

Oh well, another one bites the dust.
 
Since this thread sucks I'm going to change the topic...

Lazy hippy... Did your sig really make $273 last month? I do not believe it!

3 YSM UK Sign-ups @ $91 each (+ anything I might get over time for affiliate network referrals).
 
Interesting... I remember I signed up for YSM under you a while ago and I thought to myself "Damn, I'm making this kids day... I bet nobody ever signs up from his sig... Ever!"

Haha cheers! Unfortunately the US program doesn't pay nearly as well!

Kid?? 30 next year so I'll take that as a compliment!
 
Ah, I'm 18... But I view everyone on the internet as the same age as me since I can't see what they look like and you can't usually tell how old someone is by how they type. I just picture me sitting at my computer typing.

Anyway, gratz on the referrals. I didn't think that stuff worked in forums.
