Using Yahoo Classifieds

The Yahoo classifieds at www.yahoo.com is one of the most highly visited classified sites on the net.

Here's a strategy for using them effectively.

  1. Go to: http://www.yahoo.com
  2. Click on the 'CLASSIFIEDS' Link.
  3. Create an account, then click on SUBMIT ADS. (If you have an account, skip to STEP 6).
  4. Place your ten ads - no more (it takes TWO DAYS for Yahoo to place them).
  5. WAIT THREE DAYS, Go back to Yahoo! (STEPS 1 & 2).
  6. Click on "EDIT ADS", Click on "DELETE ALL".
  7. Go to STEP 4 and REPEAT THE PROCESS (STEPS 4,5,6,7)

The reason this strategy works is this: It takes Yahoo about 2 days to place your ad online. When this happens, your ad is at the top of the listings and is in the best place to get a lot of hits.

As other ads get placed above yours by Yahoo, your ad drops down into a place where it's basically useless (this will take 24 hours, tops).

So, by deleting and replacing your ad, you get it back up to the top on a regular basis.

NOTE: In the Business Opportunities section, you will be presented with TWO sets of subcategories. The first one has 12 sections this is the IMPORTANT ONE. Choose 10 of 12 (1 ad each!) - for maximum results. The second set is only used for searches... pick the one that makes most sense.

Strategy: Vary your headline and ad to fit the category you're placing it in. This will affect whether Yahoo accepts your ad!

For the "Services" category, make your ad and headline seem like they're for a service. For the "Biz Opp" category, make your ad ad headline seem like Biz Opps.  Here are two examples:

Service: Headline - "6-Figure Internet Income - Start building your business TODAY"  Ad - "Learn the PROVEN technique for building your business online. Generate new leads INSTANTLY. Go to www.sixfigureincome.com/free/?yourID"

Biz Opp: Headline -  "Your 6-Figure Internet Income - Start making money online TODAY."  Ad -  "Learn the PROVEN technique for building a business online. No experience necessary. Get started INSTANTLY. Go to www.sixfigureincome.com/free/?yourID"
