Definition

In IM directories, classified ads are listings posted into categories on ad boards. Many sites encourage daily posting or offer auto-repost upgrades for ongoing visibility.

Posting tips

Consistency beats one-off genius copy. Use free posting to baseline response before paying for highlights.

Destination

Send clicks to a tracked page you control — preferably a squeeze or content bridge — not a raw checkout.
