Will free online classified ad syndication take over craigslist?
Filed Under Jobs |
I have tested many free classifieds and found craigslist had a ton of traffic. However my classified ads just seem to get flagged and then I need to go and repost them. I have tried other free classified sites but found the traffic just isn’t there…. Two days ago I received a notification from stumblehere and I decided to test outthe Ad Syndication that stumblehere.com is promoting.
What is online classified ad syndication? Well, Stumblehere.com now provides an amazing online service that enables you to develop professional-looking classified ads. These ads are then posted for you so you do not have to make multiple postings yourself. How much is your time worth? How long would it take you to post 150 free classified ads?
What this means is stumblehere.com saves you not only money but time too. The power comes from entering your ad only one time. After that they do all the work listing your ad in online marketplaces, classified directories, RSS feeds and the top search engines. And this is all done rather quickly, usually within 35 hours or less.
No more having to repost my ads daily to flagging. And the quantity of top networks provides an amazing traffic solution. Where do I start?
So I know from experience that free classified ads work on stumblehere, but how about these new paid ads? Are they really worth it? In doing my research I decided to try their new betterpost product. The way I understand it is the betterpost classifieds are ads designed in beautiful templates, with full ad syndication. Basically I can spice up my ad and get traffic to it without web programming knowledge.
The best way to explain betterpost is - An ad upgrade feature, for 7.99 you build a professional and attractive ad and then stumblehere.com syndicates that ad for you. They place and syndicate your ad for you so you do not have to make multiple ad postings yourself!
Right now stumblehere only offers betterpost in their vehicles section. I am going to test it out. I need to sell my car anyways. Stumblehere is offering 85% off through the end of October 2008 for anyone who wants to beta test their betterpost ad syndication product. Simply enter ‘halloween’ all lowercase in the promo code box after posting your ad.
Wow ummm so I can test this out for only $1.20? I think I can afford that test. I placed the ad and paid my buck. My Ad is gorgeous. No really, it looks fantastic, not boring like most classified ads.
First time for everything, my first time paying for aclassifed ad online. It has been 12 hours and I have not heard anything. I wonder if this will really work? I decided to go back to http://www.stumblehere.com and research it more. Their site says classified ad syndication can take up to 26 hours. I guess I will have to do some waiting.
About 7 hours later I got my 1st call… I tried to see what site they saw my ad on but, the gal couldn’t remember. She just talked about how she was impressed at how my car looked in the ad.
After I got up the next morning I had 3 emails and got my second call about 2 hours later (does this classified ad syndication stuff really work?) I decided to have interested parties come look at my car over the weekend when I had some time off work.
5 days after my post I had 5 calls and 8 emails! To answer my above question, I know classified ad syndication works! It was sooo easy and I only needed to submit my ad once. And it was not brought down from someone flagging it cause they were selling a similar car, etc.
