Will free online classified ad syndication take over craigslist?

by Amy Sanders

I have tested many free classifieds and found kijiji had a ton of traffic. However my online classifieds just seem to get taken down and then I need to go and post them again. I have tried many online classified sites but found the traffic just isn’t there…. Yesterday I received a notification from stumblehere and I decided to trythe Ad Syndication that stumblehere.com is promoting.

What is classified ad syndication? Well, Stumblehere.com now provides an amazing online service that enables you to create 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 your staff to post 100 local 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 40 hours or less.

This is how they get traffic to your ad. Not only is your listing on their site, but it is on all the top networks as well. And now I dont need to repost it daily cause a competitor maliciously flags my ad. Okay I am sold!

I am gonna test out the betterpost ads. Since I am relatively new to the web, I am excited to try their walkthrough and have my classified ad built for me. Then as part of the betterpost process the ads will have full syndication. I will let you know all my results on how thier process works.

What is the betterpost Premium Ad Feature? The betterpost Premium Ad Feature saves you time and money! They help you create an attractive ad. For a small fee of $7.99, once you place your ad in stumblehere customized templates, they will automatically syndicate and post your ad. Yes, they post your ad for you so you do not have to make multiple postings yourself! This will save you hours upon hours of personal time.

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.

Total cost was only 1.20. This test is not going to cost me anything. I really like the way my ad turned out. It looks really sharp.

This is my first time paying for an online classified ad. After 7 hours I still had not received any response. I read the faq on http://www.stumblehere.com and it said how it can take up to 25 hours for syndication to happen. Now I need to wait it out.

It was not too long until i received my first call. He told me how much he enjoyed the look of my car and how well it was presented.

After a good night’s rest I decided to check my email. There were already 4 emails in there about my car. Later that day I got call number 2 and set up some appointments to have people look at my car. Soo classified ad syndication does work?

3 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.
