Craigslist Posting Tool & Tips to Getting Craigslist Postings Optimized for Search Engine Rankings.
Is there such a thing as "Craigslist optimization" for “"Craigslist optimized postings"? I believe there is, but why is there no content in Google about how to optimize your Craigslist postings?
I couldn’t believe that no body has written about the simple tips to optimizing your Craigslist postings. I had to check with yahoo’s monthly search volume tool to see what people our typing in.
You have 1,706,716 people typed in “Craigslist”. Then you have 145 people looking for a “Craigslist posting tool” to help make it easier to post on multiple sites for the frustrated now 60 people looking for “Craigslist posting”. But lets get back to the facts, why wouldn’t you want to optimize your Craigslist postings for the 1.7 million people looking for Craigslist in search engines and the 10 million people that visit Craiglist each month?
So we know there is a market and that people are looking for a way to post. That is why I’ve put together this Craigslist optimization tips article. As a calling card affiliate program manager, I wanted to help my future phone card affiliate partners with ways on how to find your Craigslist niche. I hope this article gives you’re the Craigslist posting tools for high search engine rankings to compete with the 8 million posts that Craigslist gets each month.
Posting for Craigslist Rankings:
You first need to think of where the traffic is going so that you can stand out from the other 8 million postings. So first think of posting in the top traffic sections being: 1) jobs 2) housing 3) for sale 4) personals 5) forums. Then you need to build a system to stay on top of the rankings by editing you’re posting on a daily basis or changing your postings daily so that you stay on top of the search pages. Craigslist posting service providers recommend ten different Craigslist posting ads to change up daily. But keep in mind that changing your ads daily means that there is no way of getting Craigslist rankings in search engines. So load your post with lots of one to three word keywords to attract the pure 10 million Craigslist visitors. I’ve seen case studies that have shown a local plumber in
Optimized Craigslist postings:
If you want search engine rankings, you’ll need to focus your time on postings that will stay up more then the usually 7 day listing. This will give the search engines time to spider Craigslist. I would suggest focusing on the high traffic job postings section for the
Now that you know where to post, you’ll need to make sure your copy is unique and that you focus your keyword phrase in the title of your post as well as mentioning it 3 to 4 times within the ad copy of your post. This strategy is a great way for affiliates or people that want to make some side money, such as a phone card affiliate program can compete against the big super affiliate sites. An example with phone card affiliate programs would be for the keyword “Pingo Coupon”. This keyword phrase “Pingo coupon” has over 135k pages indexed competing for this keyword ranking. However you should see a top ten Craigslist ranking from an international Craigslist page. I’d suggest picking a keyword phrase that has under a half a million index pages in Google. Don’t forget to add text based links in your ads with quality content that might get picked up in RSS feeds that might land your links on other sites that will give you a permanent link for additional link building for search rankings.
Craigslist Posting Services:
You might be thinking that you don’t have the time to post to the current 190 Craigslist sites in all 50 US states, and 35 countries. Plus you have to factor in the frequency of changing your ads daily and posting in multiple sections. There is plenty of Craigslist posting tools and service providers that can help you ranging from offshore for ten cents a posting to locally based companies charging a buck a post.
Once you have taken advantage of these simple Craigslist optimization tips. Check MSN first then Yahoo and finally Google for your search engine rankings. It seems that this is the order to which search engine is indexing Craigslist content the fastest. Now you’re on your way to finding your Craigslist niche for your business. Or you’re using these Craigslist tips to become a power super affiliate.

2. Hi Craig,
Yes, we always advocate “smart listing” within the craigslist system. We training our clients how to add listings and hyperlink their listing to their websites. We also train on how to use the self reporting system and how to respect craigslist and its rules. It is very standard for us to tell our clients to use craigslist within the rules or you guys would begin charging.
We see what you are doing as helpful for our clients and see it as a great tool for them. We even have training sessions specific to craigslist that we run for our Realtors. We do these at no charge and no real benefit to us. We are here to not only provide a website solution to Realtors but more importantly to educate our Realtors on the internet.
Learn how to take craigslist to the limit to our clients means learn how to hyperlink, bold text, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to write me and I hope that I have explained what we meant by taking craigslist to the limit.
I look forward to meeting you one day.
Sincerely,
Steve
