Using online classifieds to market your products and services
Tips on Posting Classified Ads
how to write effective classified advertisements
==> Add good related pictures to your classified ad. Pictures speak a thousand words.
==> Write good ad copy. The length does not really matter as long as you list the benefits and features of your product.
==> Let the readers know why they need your product and why it is better than other products available.
==> Add your classified ads to the correct categories. People select on categories to view ads and if you are selling mobile phones on pets category then no one will be interested.

I like online ads for convenience. Plus, more and more people are doing some or all of their holiday shopping online, which means traffic and sales for people who sell online.

Online is the best way to start because it is free and you can get almost instant feedback. Later you can add offline classified ads.

- I've used classified ads and feel it is a good way to start your promotion efforts. But, I drop the ball and don't keep it up. Have to set up a system to promote and stick with it. 5*s
