Quick Tips to Improve Classified Ad Responses

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Here are some quick tips to help you get more responses to your listing on FreeAdLists.com – Classified Ads.

  1. Add some interesting details to your listing title. Don’t use outrageous titles.
  2. Add a detailed description to your listing and use the spell checker. The listing should include more than 2-3 sentences.
  3. Provide a price to your listing because most buyers don’t like guessing.
  4. Add photos to your listing. You can add up to 6 photos to your listing.
  5. Lastly, share the listing with your friends and family. There is a good chance your friends and family will share it with their friends on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Delicious or MySpace. You can do that by clicking on the “Share” button on your listing.

Suggest to Add Your City to FreeAdLists.com

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Lately, we have been receiving a number of requests to add cities for certain countries. Frankly speaking, we don’t mind doing that but we are looking to add cities that are over 1 million in population. Lately, we have received a few requests for cities under 10K. In these cases, please use the “other cities in state/country” option so we can keep the city database manageable.

Also, if you don’t mind, please help spread the word for your particular city.

At any rate, here are a few Indian cities that have been added in the past 2-3 days per request.

Delhi
Mumbai
Bangalore
Chennai
Kolkata
Indore
Hyderabad
Ahmedabad
Pune

Mumbai
Bangalore
Chennai

Loan $25 to change lives through Kiva.org

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

FreeAdLists.com Readers,

I wanted to let you know about Kiva (www.kiva.org), a non-profit that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur across the globe.

You choose who to lend to – whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq – and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It’s a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.

Personally, I have been micro-lending since November 2007. The repayment of the loans has been outstanding, so I just keep re-lending. Join me in helping make a difference.

You Are Living Under My “Hosting Platform Roof”

Friday, December 26th, 2008
FreeAdLists.com Blog

Readers: 70 Page views: 83 Offsite clicks: 1 Statistics | Widgets | Settings

You’re living under my … well, you know how it goes back in the day. Anyway, here’s full disclosure…

About a week ago, this blog used to be hosted at freeadlists.wordpress.com, but I had to move it to a server where I can control the censoring of content.  What happened? In a blog post, I harshly complained about the data entry, ad postings, paste ads spammers (The “*jobs for you* “.” com” type spammers — I think you know who I’m talking about) because their affiliates were incessantly spamming FreeAdLists.com. Well, WordPress banned me for my efforts. I’m fairly certain the ban was inadvertent and systematic; but apparently, naming those spammers was ill-advised since they were probably banned terms.  I emailed WordPress.org to plead my case, but they didn’t even acknowledge its receipt.  I think the ban was BS but “Live and Learn.” It was free platform hosting…what did I really expect?

By the way, before I moved the blog, I received about 35-50 visits per day. After I moved it to the server, I receive about 2-5 visits per day – no big surprise.  It was stumbled earlier so the aforementioned statistic was a surprise.

Happy Holidays!

Do Not Play the Fake Check or Money Order Games

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

Here is an astute seller. As I have warned repeatedly, DO NOT deal with persons who are not within driving distance, especially “buyers” from overseas. Why? There is a great probability that these distance “buyers” are low-life scammers. Don’t get taken by these fake check or money order scammers — do your own due diligence.

By the way, I received this particular email because it was inadvertently sent to the FreeAdLists.com no reply email system. 

Here is the seller’s comment: “hi there the MGB IS STILL AVAILABLE WILL SELL IT FOR $4400 USD CASH IT RUNS GREAT AND JUST NEEDS PAINT ALL THE BODY IS COMPLETE PLZ DONT PAY THE FAKE CHECK OR MONEY ORDER GAMES. I AM REALLY TIRED OF ALL THESE PEOPLE SENDING ME FAKE CHECKS. I DO CHECK EVERYTHING OUT, THANKS”
