How to increase traffic with classifieds
Lots of webmasters are using free classified ad partner programs to open new markets and give their site visitors a reason to return. If you can provide your prospects a reason to return to your website, you have more opportunities to gain their trust…and their sales.
Here’s how to do it. You create a hyperlink to your classified ads site using appropriate keywords for your market (“Free BMW Ads”, “Classic Car Classifieds,” “New Car Ads,” etc.). Engines like Google just love these types of links, and including these keywords will certainly improve your ranking for exactly the type of buyer you want to attract to your web pages. Greater visibility means greater site traffic.
Here’s an added benefit. When your site guests post free classifieds, they are presented with an offer to upgrade their free ad with enhancements (feature ads, color, italicized listing, etc). This sets their ad apart from the other ads and gains better exposure for them. Most classified ad partner programs will pay you a percentage (usually 10-25%) of the upgrade fee.
Have your own web site? Use this great classifieds plugin to generate your very own classified ad site and earn 100% commissions yourself. You might decide to give away free classifieds or charge a small fee as your visitors post ads to buy and sell their products on your site – you set the terms. Simply attach a WordPress blog to your existing web site, apply this theme, and you’re up and running. You’ve just added an additional revenue stream for your web site.
By creating and incorporating a classified ad partner program into your web pages, you create the ultimate win-win-win. You provide your guests with a free benefit, you increase your rankings with the search engines by incorporating keyword hyperlinks into your site, you add additional markets to expose to your product, you create an additional revenue stream as they upgrade their ads, and you give your prospects a reason to keep coming back to your site again and again.
Join a free classifieds partner program today and watch as your business improves.
