Thanks Linda,
You can do affiliate marketing on CL. Some of the affiliate links are blocked. They done this because of spam(too many affiliates over posting). But you can advertise national products on a local level. That is why i used "weight loss" as an example. You just need to do it on a local level instead of national keywords. They are too competitive for craigslist to default into the top 10. For the seed keyword "houston weight loss there are over 800 daily searches(estimated). So an affiliate could target these phrases and get default top 10 in 3 to 5 days on google.
To do this you will need a url, and put up a meta refresh page with your affiliate link.
Remember, you only need 3 to 4 ads a week. and this is not a violation of the T.O.S.
How about wynn las vegas. it is travel, it would work on a local level for most cities.
Just do not abuse it and everything will be ok.
This is the method i use to test new affiliate programs i am interested in before i push a site up for it. I always make sure it converts first.
Just use your head, and be carefull not to over post or spam and you will never have a problem. You are allowed 1 post every 48 hours on CL. Play by the rules, and you are ok. I am sure you could write a paragraph with several phrases in it.
It is not that hard to do.
