Classifieds is a way that use to work to get traffic. Does not work well anymore. They just don't generate enough traffic to them anymore. Unless you are talking something like craigslist.

You can use Classified Ads to drive traffic to your affiliate site and it is potential traffic to sell your product. Why not try that if that source of traffic is reliable and good.

Classified Sites are a great way to buy sell anything online. However, I haven' see anyone promoting affiliate products using classified sites. Most of the top classified websites does not allow you to add links in the ad.

I used to use classified ads to promote affiliate products, but it never
really worked very well for me, even several years ago.

BTW, I used Backpage ads. Never really tried Craigslist.

Classifieds is a method that utilize to work for visitors. Doesn't work well anymore. They simply don't produce enough traffic to those . Unless you're speaking something similar to craigslist.

Hi Hugo,

Not sure if they work today but worth a try and see how it goes, a few Classified ads that I remember: Craigslist, OLX, Gumtree, Backpage, Classifiedads.com


Good luck

DISCLAIMER: I have not applied the method personally.

But to think about it, classifieds get highly-targeted traffic who are basically looking for a SOLUTION to their problem.

This is in contrast to content marketing where people are mostly researching solutions. What . . . Why . . . How-to . . . List of . . . You have to get their emails and then convert them later.

However, classifieds are "marketplaces" where people come to BUY stuff.

So, running affiliate advertisements on classifieds are definitely worthwhile.

First, what do you mean by selling through classified ads? If you mean, placing your affiliate links in them, yes it's possible but make sure to read the classified ads' TOS first. Also, if they allow it, make sure you configure your links, both for security purposes and to make appear more legit. As you probably know, affiliate link urls tend to look like mumbo jumbo and people can see that in the browser when they hover their mouse over the link.
