Craigslist Traffic?

Here's the thing; we all want more traffic to our websites and/or blogs. At least those of us who want to earn a nice passive residual income. Every web guru known to man states over and over again that it's all about the traffic! If you want to earn more from programs like Google Adsense, Yahoo Publisher and affiliate sites, you must get more traffic! Well, what about Craigslist traffic?

It's been said before and countless web publishers and bloggers are taking advantage of it. It's FREE Craigslist traffic. Basically you post somewhere on Craigslist and leave your link or links behind. Heck, now someone has even written a manual about how to attain major traffic from Craigslist. Could there be a catch?

Well, while we all want as much free web traffic as we can muster, achieving ample Craigslist traffic may be easier said than done. Unfortunately numerous regulars on the Craigslist scene despise bloggers and web publishers leaving their links behind. Even though you may not be trying to sell them anything, they tend to brand your postings as SPAM. Yes, this can really stink! One moment you're creating a post for Craigslist and a minute later it's deleted.

So you may want to do a bit more research prior to using sites like Craigslist to get traffic. Or, at least be tactful when creating posts to bring more traffic in. Be honest, post in the right category and actually give people what you pitch to them in your Craigslist post. This can make all the difference.
