If you’re on a tight budget and need to find cheap advertising on the internet, there’s nothing cheaper than FREE classifieds and they’re literally everywhere.

The trick to FREE classified advertising is quantity and testing. Test every ad you run. And you will have to send hundreds of ads every week. Once you’ve found a dozen classified sites that work for you, you can focus less on running ads and more on finding new sites that work. Stop using all the classified sites that do not produce results.

Finding good classified sites to advertise on is relatively simple. Just do a search on your favorite search engine to find keywords like free work from home classifieds and you will find plenty of FREE classified sites to advertise on. You want sites listed on major search engines like Google and Yahoo. These sites are already getting the good targeted traffic that you need. And if they’re listed by Google and Yahoo, there’s a good chance your link will be picked up the next time you crawl the ranked site, which should help boost your link popularity.

Before posting free ads, I HIGHLY recommend setting up an additional business email address. Free classifieds are free for a reason: when you post ads, you’ll receive “confirmation emails” that your ad was posted. If you post to classified networks, you may receive hundreds of confirmation emails per day. You can set up a free Hotmail or Yahoo account. Once a week I recommend that you clean out your email account by deleting all emails so that your inbox does not fill up.

Try to stay focused when posting ads. It’s easy to be lured by some ads that say, “post 2000 ads here” or “this software will send posts to 500,000 sites with the click of a button” or something similar. You will find many attractive offers on those sites because they know you are a target customer! A good rule of thumb is: you will never find anyone advertising effective advertising. Logic: If the advertising is effective, it will be used by the owner himself. Shipping programs are useless; because they post on sites that are not visited by real humans. All good classified ad sites have protection against this software. Posting manually or with the help of a typing program like AdWizard are the best methods (the only methods). But if you want to try a free service that posts to over three million sites, go here: http://www.worldsubmitter.com AND PLEASE take my advice and use your business email address this time.

Do not spam FREE classified sites. Most have guidelines on how often you can post. Follow these guidelines precisely or you risk being banned from placing any more classified ads. I once found a really good business opportunity classified site that was converting really well, so I decided to run more and more ads. The owner of the FREE classified site recognized this and banned me for not following the rules. Don’t fall into this trap.

There is a tool that is essential for posting free classified ads and it is called AdWizard. You can download a free copy from the following website: http://www.wavget.com/adwizard.html
