Step-by-Step Instruction for Posting an Ad on Craigslist

Step-by-Step Instruction for Posting an Ad on Craigslist

Craigslist boasts billions of page hits each month and with good reason -- its largely free online classifieds pages reach across the nation and around the world with dedicated sections for jobs, automobiles, pets, housing, personals, social events, garage sales and goods for sale or trade. With a few exceptions and restrictions, a user can find or sell nearly anything, and those who post can include up to four photos to make their ad more appealing.


1. Log on to Craigslist.org. Find your country, state and city, and then click to get to the local page.


2. Create an account for frequent selling and ease-of-use when logging in. Click "My Account" in the upper-left corner under the "Craigslist" logo. An account will give your listing more credibility with Craigslist. Click the link at "Sign Up for an Account." Enter your email address and verification code, then click the "Create Account" button. Craigslist will send a verification email to your email address.


3. Open the email from Craigslist and click the link inside the email. Agree to the Craigslist terms of service by clicking "Accept," and you will be taken to your new account dashboard.


4. Find your city in the pull-down menu in the top right corner of the dashboard, then click "Go." If you opt not to create an account, use the "Post to Classifieds" link on the main Craigslist.org page.


5. Click "For Sale" if you want to post an article for sale on Craigslist. Similarly, choose "Personal," "Housing," "Community" or "Jobs" to post an ad. Select the sub-category for the item you wish to post.


6. Enter a headline in the text box to best describe the item you wish to post. Create a compelling title that gives the reader a clear idea of your item. Enter the price, if applicable, and your location.


7.  Write a clear and concise description of your item. Click the "Add/Edit Images" button to add pictures if you like. Navigate to the file on your computer, and then click "Continue."


8. Enter the verification code. A confirmation will be emailed to you. Respond to the link on the email to post your listing.

  3. With the introduction of 1080p HD video recording, photographers now have
    the chance to move into the field of film and experiment with a bevy of large-aperture lenses such as the 50L and 85L.
    Some as well as components of the Nikon D700 are these:.
    For more information, take a look at the Canon EOS 5D Mark 3 technologies explained.

  10. I usually do not write a lot of responses,
    but I looked at a ton of remarks on "Step-by-Step Instruction for Posting an Ad on Craigslist".

    I actually do have 2 questions for you if it's allright. Could it be just me or does it give the impression like some of these comments appear like they are written by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing at other sites, I'd like to follow
    everything new you have to post. Would you make a list of the complete urls
    of your social networking sites like your linkedin profile,
    Facebook page or twitter feed?
