How To Get Traffic

There are also free classified ads that you could avail of. These are usually sites that are built for the sole purpose of displaying ads per category. The problem with this option is that, because it’s free, you’ll be competing against thousands upon thousands of other advertisers vying for the same market. Additionally, people might not have the patience to sift through thousands upon thousands of ads. For this option to work, your ads would need to stand out from the rest of the pack.
Here are some tips to help you come up with a killer ad for free classifieds. • Formulate an attention-grabbing headline. Your headline is your only chance to capture the interests of the readers, especially in a venue as crowded as free classified ad websites. Make sure that you clearly state the main benefit that your readers will derive from what you are advertising.
• Keep your ad short, but sweet. People won’t have the patience to read a mini-sales copy. Stick to the basics and present your ad as concisely as possible without compromising its appeal.
• Try to capture leads instead of generating sales. You may not be able to garner immediate customers, but at least, you’d be
able to inform them about your website and your business for future considerations.Free classified ads may not be as powerful a technique as the other tactics we have discussed in this chapter. But they’re free, and as with everything else that does not come at a price, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by trying out this approach.
