Do you know how to make money on Craigslist?  Craigslist is the world’s largest and best classified site.  And the best part is that almost all of the classified ads on Craigslist are free.

Craigslist started out as a simple email list that Craig Newmark sent to friends in the San Francisco bay area.  At first it was a list of the weekend’s parties and events.  As his personal list of recipients grew, people began asking him to list a roommate vacancy or a job opening.

Eventually, he decided to put the list online and let anyone post to it.  At first, the site was only for San Francisco area users.  But in 2000, they set up separate listings for Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Portland (OR), San Diego, Seattle, Washington DC, and Sacramento.

The site currently has more than 550 cities in 50 countries around the world.

Craigslist gets 12 billion page views a month and is the world’s 8th most popular English language website.

Knowing this, do you think you could make money on Craigslist?

Well, you need to keep in mind that Craigslist has an internal culture that isn’t overly friendly to internet marketing sales.  In fact, the official url is www.Craigslist.org with the .org reflecting the company’s “relatively noncommercial nature.”  There is a sense that it’s okay to list your couch for sale but not an ebook.

Still, internet marketers have found ways to make money on Craigslist.

There are several sections to Craigslist including community, housing, jobs, for sale, and services.  Craigslist asks that you post internet marketing opportunities in the appropriate services section.  For instance, a debt consolidation offer should go in the Financial Services section.

Not all marketers agree with the Craigslist guidelines and they post to other sections at their own risk.  For instance, you can create ads for ebooks and place them in the books for sale section or give away subscriptions to your free newsletter in the free section.

Many people promote affiliate marketing and other internet business opportunities in the jobs section.  This can be risky as these ads often get flagged.  If you get flagged too many times you can lose your rights to post to Craigslist.

The most visited cities are posted under “US Cities” on the right hand side of the screen.  San Francisco is, by far, the most visited page on the site.  If you want to get your web site indexed quickly, make a post to the San Francisco page.

You can make money on Craigslist if you use the world’s largest and best classified site wisely.

You’re going to get very specific with your internet marketing promotion very soon, but for right now take one or two topics you’ve come up with an actually write about them.  You’ll want to aim for an article of 400 to 450 words, depending on the minimum of the depository like EzineArticles.com that you’re aiming it for. Just convey your knowledge on the subject, and write like you talk.  After you’ve done a couple, it will get easier.

You want your internet marketing promotion to look as good as everyone else, so spell check your work and proofread it for errors. Add a brief author note at the bottom along with your link. Then submit the articles.  Now that you’ve had a little practice, find an online keyword tool like the one Google offers for free, and think of some keywords that relate to your business.

If you own a gardening center, then “growing roses” or “when to mulch” might be possibilities.  Use the tool to find popular keywords that don’t have thousands of websites already catering to them.

The next step in your article internet marketing promotion is to pick a few keyword phrases and write articles based around those. Use the phrase in the title if possible, and 4 or 5 times throughout the article.  This makes it more likely that when someone searches on that phrase, your article will show up high in the listings. Then when they read the article, they find your link at the bottom.

If you’re truly intimidated by writing articles, you can always hire someone to do it for you at a reasonable rate.  But it could become something you enjoy doing. Articles filled with good content can be a fun way to expand your internet marketing promotion efforts.
