Is anybody having luck getting traffic from Craigslist? How do you get your ads to stay on the site without anybody flagging them as spam?

Good copywriting and get involved with the community. Also the product that you are selling should be useful to the category. I am not too sure if Craigslist allows digital product.

Free Classifieds are always a good way to get traffic. It is about the copywriting and following the Classifieds site rules.

All of my past attempts have been flagged and it wasn't even spam! lol

Ive had luck with this without getting flagged. I say that I am looking for local models for my site, give the url, and viola... traffic.

There are methods you can use to minimize the number of your ads that get flagged or staff deleted .

Get a product called Craigslist Marketer Pro. It comes with a guide, video and spreadsheet. It tells you how to use Craigslist effectively without getting flagged or deleted.

If I'm not mistaken, it also depends on where you are posting.

Guys I suggest you also tryout kijiji.com and backpages.com - almost as good as craiglist

Yes, Craigslist is a great way to advertise. Dont worry about flagged posts, just re-post every day.

That would get your IP banned, I believe.

Craigs is getting tougher and tougher. Even legit ads get ghosted or flagged. As one guy said at a different forum, it's amazing that there are people out there who have nothing better to do than browse around cl and flag posts.

I use proxies but cl makes it hard to post when you do use them.

Interesting the craiglist way but not sure that's worth enough to invest the time on that :sleep:

There are many other free ad listing sites that also do a great job bringing in traffic to your sites.
