Classified advertising can be a very powerful marketing tool if you know how to use it. You can use classified ads to sell any products under the sun. You can also use classified ads to send visitors to your websites. Listed below are some benefits of posting classified ads:

  • Online classified ads can be viewed at any time and anywhere in the world. The entire web population can be a potential viewer of your advertisement and not just your local town if you were placing an ad in your local newspaper.
  • Free to low cost. Posting classified ads online is very cost effective. Many sites will even let you post your ads for free. Big sites like USFREEADS allow you to place up to 2 classified ads with pictures for no cost.
  • Online classified ads are indexed by search engines and show up on their search results page. When somebody searches for your specified keyword on Google or Yahoo, your classified ads show up on the search page.
  • Classified ads can act as a mini website. You can list all your selling points, feature your products, add pictures and direct them to a website with more information. Just like a minisite. Now isn't that nice?
  • Products advertised on classifieds have a perceived value of being of good price. Compared to other advertising medium, products posted on classifieds are considered to be had for a lower price than other places.

So as you can see by the five benefits above, posting classified ads can be a great marketing tool and if you are not already using it, you should start so immediately.
