You probably know that the local paper does not offer free classifieds. The Internet does. There are many free classified advertisement web pages on the Internet. You can post most anything there that will help sell your product or service.
You can place many types of ads on the Internet free classified sites. They are open to all, and they usually have great results. This is often a better way to sell items for people who want to avoid fees as you would get from the local classifieds or on e-bay.
Imagine how many people are online at any given time of day; now imagine how many of them are looking for things to buy online. This could be your buyer in that bunch. Take the time to find the right classified website for your needs. Do a web search to find the ones listed in the top results. These are where you want to place your classified ads. More exposure means better chance of a sale and even a faster sale.
Free classified websites make their money off of click ads that are placed on each of their web pages, and also by charging extra feature fees such as for placing a picture with your classified ad this seems to keep them running quite well. They are not all free, so be sure you know what you are getting into.
To start do a search on the Internet as if you were looking for something in the Classifieds online. Make a note of which websites come up first through third place in the results. These are the websites you would want to use to place your ads, as they will get the most exposure. You can advertise on more than one website.
Do not give out a phone number to call, people will call you all hours of the day and night. Dive an e-mail address for contact. I would create a free e-mail account just for this purpose. This will save you much grief. Place in the ad what type of payments you will accept. PayPal is my favorite, but you can take money orders and checks. I would not release the item or service until the check clears. There are scammers who use the "I will send the money once I know you have sent he product". Do not fall for that.
When you decide on a website to sell on, check to see if they have a forum or message board there. Read them to see how well the ads on this website work. Get involved and ask questions as well. The better informed you are will make you a better seller.
When you decide which free classified website to use, make sure that you read the terms of service for any fees that may not have been mentioned before, look for restrictions on the type of content they allow, and also how long you can expect your ad to run. Generally 7-10 days, some instances they can run up to 30 days. Do a bit of research, and you will find the place that is right for you. - 16755
