Importance of Classified Ads in SEO
These are very useful to promote the website as they get posted immediately and can generate sales queries in a couple of hours. Classified Ads are posted on Resources which already have traffic and have a lot of people refer them for quality products and services. The best Classified Resource that I have used is: www.craigslist.org here you can post your ad in the desired category and it gets posted in about 15 minutes for people to view and contact you. There are other pretty good resources on the SEO Agency Website as well please find more Classified Ads Submission sites here: http://www.unbglobal.net/classifiedsubmissionresources.htm
As mentioned above the biggest advantage is that the ads get posted immediately and the customers can contact you immediately. You don't have to wait for 4-6 months to get into the organic ranking. The disadvantage that I see is with the credibility and the price. Mostly the customers here are looking for cheaper services and you have to make a lot of effort to convince them to buy your products and services. Customers here negotiate a lot.
Classified Ads are a great resource for someone who is not in the organic ranking.
* For Small Businesses who cannot afford to
promote themselves within the organic listings.
* For start ups which want business from every possible resource.
* People who want to sell their products and services immediately.
* Companies which want to bid for client requirements as a lot of customers
looking for specialized services place ads here as well.
