Default Us Free Ads ?

Hi,

I'm considering trying US Free Ads for a few promotions and wondering
if anyone here has had any luck with them? I've seen some good reviews,
but that does'nt allways hold water.

Thanks for any feedback!
Mike

Hi Mike,
I've not personally used them, but have no doubt, read the same glowing reviews you have.

I know they have a free classified submission service, why not try that out first and see if it's any good. If you have some success with it, consider upgrading your account.

Default Thanks Teli..

Hi Teli,

Thanks for the reply!
I went there and it appears that their free ads will get very little traffic.
If I read it right, no links, html codes, or images are allowed.

I watched a video the other night that was all about a way to really dress
up youd ads (with the premium membership), and was very impressed.
When the demonstration was done, the ad resembled a website, complete
with an auto-responder. Pretty cool! If you'd like to see it, shoot me an email
and I'll send you the link.
Thanks,
Mike

Regardless of how COOL it looks, wont do any good if not many visit or buys there.

Probably depends on the product. If it's biz opps, MLM or Internet marketing products MAYBe because I would gues most of the visitors are other merketers
checking their ads or the competiton.

If it's for regular products I would think most searchers and buyers go to CraigsList, Google Base, Oodle or Backpages. All of which are free by the way but all or most don't appreciate affiliate links.

FYI even though I know Alexa is not totally accurate here is a traffic comparison between US and Craigs.

For whatever reason Google absolutely loves USFreeAds and crawls it alomost all day long. Although it is not an article site you can paste your articles in there for pretty good search engine placement. You may also want to try SearchWarp too - http://searchwarp.com/. I just got turned onto that one.

Default Thanks for the advice

I appreciate you taking time to respond to this.

Linda: The demo I watched was setting up a Clickbank product, and it
seems that this may be good for that.

Stephen:
Thanks for the link. I'm gonna check it out right now.

Wow, I've never even heard of usfreeads before now. It looks a lot nicer and more organized than craig's list. Its Alexa ranking is not bad either. Does searchwarp get indexed better than something like ezinearticles?

No, but Google is very favorable towards them like USFreeAds. You really only need to use those three sites and a few other for promotion. Don't blast your article out to every article directory and repository. One article per site for best results.

Let me give you all a hint.
Go to google
search for the term free ads
those top 20 different url ads sites that show up?
Thats where to advertise, FREE.
I pay the $9+ a month for US free ads,
I get back 20+ fold at least each month,
and my ads stays there.
Same with the search term message boards or forums .
Use your signatures wisely, on the forums, be nice & dont spam
You are on the forums to help others, just like I did here=)
Make yourself known there=) Blessings Diana
