Back to Basics: Free Classifieds Work

Its time to get back to the basics, there are so many different things on the internet and so many programs to teach (mentor) you it can become all too consuming to take on. So here we are back at the start. Back to basics - Free Classifieds.

Free classifieds ARE a good STARTING point for marketing affiliate programs on the internet, most free classified sites allow affiliate links so you can send your customer directly to a sales page, and you don't have to write copy or create a sales page/website of your own.

For those of you who are just starting and can't afford other forms of advertising and the testing involved. You can use Free Classified advertising to test your ideas, advertising copy and/or products and then you can make the decision on how to proceed from those results. The best part of using free online classified ads is that you can see results quickly.

The real "secret" to making money using free classifieds is to build a portfolio of products.
Don't limit yourself to just one product. Set up your first product across several sites and then set a goal for yourself: one new product per day, week, bi-weekly whatever works best with your time schedule. But add, add, add.

Secret #2 Headline - it must be compelling

Secret #3: The most recent ads are listed on the top of the ad search or ad listing pages. The means your window of opportunity may only be two to three hours. So you must post often.

Secret #4: Always use photos or banners in your ads.

Secret #5: Tailor your ad to the category it appears in

I like this analogy I found during my research.

"Think of your advertising this way. You want it to build like running water against a dam! The momentum builds and any crack in the dam lets the water out from a trickle... to a flood. You have to keep going until the crack appears, then keep pushing until the trickle turns to... a flood.

Don't expect this water to start moving on its own, it needs constant pushing to build up the necessary pressure. By following the system I am going to detail to you, consistently each and every day, Monday through Friday, you will break the dam... and receive your flood."
