Hello all,

Can anyone tell me if they know what, if any, affiliate companies accept Craigslist traffic. As a newbie, I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
 


You setup a site with a autoresponder, aweber, then you funnel them from craigslist to your website with your autoresponder link, then they have to confirm they want the information, once they confirm your aweber sends out another email with the link to the offer and basically your craigslist traffic just became email traffic. Don't ever send them from craigslist to the offer. Check out c2m's blog, ruck has posted some info about this kinda stuff.
 
What if I posted on Craigslist and sent users just to my website, where I have different CPA offers that they can then go to. Is that the same thing?

I can see both sides of the coin here, because the initial traffic did come from Craigslist. But, on the other side, that traffic is only being sent to my website, not the advertisers. The advertisers traffic is coming from my site only. This may just be semantics, but it is a thought. What do you think about this idea??? Thank you again for any responses.

Technically it's the same thing. If CL or the flagger nazis want to be nit picky they can report you. However, mostly they don't like straight out affiliate marketing from obvious landing pages so if you just send them to like a movie news blog site that happen to have blockbuster ads on it you're probably going to be fine.

However if you spam the site and piss off a competitor then they'll go after you through your affiliate network and your hosting. So try to fly under the radar. It also depends on the section you try to post in. Some are more tolerant than others.
 
I've had bad experience with smart Craigslisters who've made major threats, but they mostly do not follow through. It depends on your method, but it wasn't worth it for me in the long-run.
 
I have a friend using AFF with Craigslist...been doing it for about 5-6 months now without being banned...

AFF accepts any kind of traffic. they don't care as long as they can rebill the shit out of their customers.

but like others have said, ask your AM for approval. imo i've seen a lot of blackhat techniques using CPA offers on craigslist-- probably the reason why you may be rejected from using traffic from there.

Depends what type of audience you're targeting. If you're trying to get savvy internet people to sign up on your offers, then yes, you will probably be kicked quicker than targeting an audience that should be less savvy.

Here's what I did for awhile on cl before it became far too difficult to post.

Go get a picture of a really nice house- post it in the rental section of big cities at an unbelievable price.

IE let's say you're in the bay area and a 4bd/3ba is renting right now on average for $2500/month - get an amazing pic of the house- use a few stolen pics of gorgeous interiors (baths/kitchens) and write a short ad and offer it 'for rent' at $1,750.

Have a link to "more information about the property" which drops to a sub domain off a real estate looking domain. On the page have the exact same 'details' as in your craigslist post but have a contact form and note that 'due to overwhelming interest you're requiring everyont to have a current copy of their credit report when they view the property/turn in an application in order to streamline the process."

Expect to get about 100 emails an hour if you're in a big metro area (make sure you put cats/dogs okay) and have the email set to auto-respond w/ the same "thanks for the interest - we're so busy so you need a credit score - click here to do this and then email us back to setup a showing"

Basically funnel the shit out of it into a credit report offer.

The ROI was impressive when I was doing this- I just couldn't easily post to CL since geting that through isn't my area of expertise so it became too time-involved.
 
Just bounce all your traffic off a blog (that has the aff links on it) and then water down the conversions. Works for me...
 
as long as you funnel the shit out of your traffic you should be fine. If you direct link you will be gone pretty fast.
