I heard stumblehere.com offers online ad syndication
Tuesday, October 14th, 2008Over the last few weeks I have been postingmore and more free classified ads. The problems I have faced is lack of people seeing my ad and being wrongly flagged. I decided to try the online ad syndication. Stumblehere.com has made syndication of classified ads the primary focus of their site.
I am still learning about the ad syndication process. I did a search on yahoo.com and found out that stumblehere.com uses classified ad syndication. They have a service that allows you to create classified ads through a template process. Wow, the system is easy to use. And the ads look amazing! Once I created the ad then they submit it to all the highest traffic classified sites and list my ad with directories and search engines. This saved me sooo much time. I only had to create my ad one time and then they did the rest. My time is far tooo valuable to site on websites all day and submit my ads everywhere.
Enter your classified ad one time at stumblehere.com and they will post your ad for you to the top classifieds sites, online marketplaces, RSS feeds, and search engines. Yes, stumblehere does all the work. This is how stumblehere allows me to save time and money.
Wow, so I can actually get traffic to my ad? I don’t have to spend time posting my ads 500 places? I don’t need to repost my ads every day due to being flagged wrongly? Sign me up!
So I know from experience that free classified ads work on stumblehere, but how about these new paid ads? Are they really worth it? In doing my research I decided to try their new betterpost product. The way I understand it is the betterpost classifieds are ads designed in beautiful templates, with full ad syndication. Basically I can spice up my ad and get traffic to it without web programming knowledge.
The best way to explain betterpost is - An ad upgrade feature, for 7.99 you build a professional and attractive ad and then stumblehere.com syndicates that ad for you. They place and syndicate your classified ad for you so you do not have to make multiple ad placements yourself!
Right now stumblehere only offers betterpost in their vehicles section. I am going to test it out. I need to sell my car anyways. Stumblehere is offering 85% off through the end of October 2008 for anyone who wants to beta test their betterpost ad syndication product. Simply enter ‘halloween’ all lowercase in the promo code box after posting your ad.
Wow ummm so I can test this out for only $1.20? I think I can afford that test. I placed the ad and paid my buck. My Ad is gorgeous. No really, it looks fantastic, not boring like most classified ads.
I had never paid to list an online classified before. 6 hours went by and nothing. Grrrr did I just waste money? I went back to the http://www.stumblehere.com site and read how it takes up to 24 hours to have listings syndicated out. Whew, ok so I decided to just wait and see what happens.
About 7 hours later I got my 1st call… I tried to see what site they saw my ad on but, the gal couldn’t remember. She just talked about how she was impressed at how my car looked in the ad.
The next morning I had 2 emails about my car. And later that day call number 2 came in off my syndicated ad. Is this classified ad syndication stuff working? I need to set up times for people to look at my car.
Now for some results after 6 days. 9 emails and 6 calls, not to shabby. To all the naysayers, I know classified ad syndication works!
