How do i post my ads?

How can I mass post ads on Craigslist?

  • I have a friend who owns a furniture company and he's looking to expand onto Craigslist. The only problem is he wants me to post 400 or so ads daily so I need a software to help post on Craigslist. Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

  • Answer:

    posting 400 ads daily will be very expensive and not worth the trouble. He should focus his efforts on SEO instead, as it is more sustainable. here is a cost breakdown. Good postig software $1000 plus $50 monthly, phone verified CL accounts, $8.00 each you should only post 3 ads a day per accounts, subscription to reliable voicemail transcription service to automate the reverification of phone verified CL accounts $30. a month, credits to outsource the solving of captchas $30. a month give or take, You cant post 400 ads on one ip address so you will need proxies or a DSL service that is not already blacklisted from CL $30-$400 monthly. Furthamore furniture for sale section on CL is VERY VERY VERY competative, so unless your buddy has a very unique product or VERY competative prices, he might want to reconsider his marketing strategy.

CL does not ban commercial adverts, it just expects you to adhere to acceptable conduct. What that means is that you should not post that many ads at once or during one day, nor should you do it from a single user account....Especially to a single geographic location such as a furniture store would be. there is a piece of automating software for doing what you suggest, but you should be cautious. there was a fellow on Fiverr selling the 'Pro Standard version". here is a link to the software site http://clbotpro.net/ hope it helps.

It won't be appreciated. You are limited to one item per category every 48 hours. Lots of people cheat and get away with it. But it violates the spirit of CL. Have him run an ad as a dealer in For Sale By Dealer in the Furniture category.

Craigslist prohibits commercial ads. Your activity will get your IP address banned and people will keep deleted the posts.
