Best Classified Sites
In my opinion, the best ad sites should meet a few levels of criteria and have certain key features. There are a lot out there but few offer all of the key features that I would want.
It's Free
There are too many free resources that are good on the Internet for you to be paying to place any ad online. The main reason is there are no guarantees as to traffic and visibility of the ad. You will also most likely place more than 1 or even 5 ads.
It Allows for HTML links
A major key to a classified ad site that I will use is that it allows me to place html outbound links on the ad. Not all classified ad sites allow it.
It can be indexed by a Search Engine
A major benefit to a good classified ad site is not only the people searching for the ad within their system, but the ability for Google and other search engines to index it.
Length of Ad Expiration
One of the things that bothers me about Craig's List and a few of the other ad sites that are most known is the short expirations. 7 days, or even 30 days can seem short and be frustrating to renew. This is especially true with Craig's List because they don't even tell you when the ad expires. That annoys me. My long term marketing strategies needs long term ads.
Nick's Classified Ads
So if you allow some self promotion, I will tell you that it was because of all of those flaws in most other sites that I started Nick's Classifieds. I made sure it had the features that YOU and I want.
