Congratulations if you’re using Craigslist for marketing! But you can probably make it even more effective if you use hyperlinks (‘clickable’ links) and graphics.

So instead of just boring text like above, you could add a graphic in your post something like this. Which paragraph is more interesting, the one above that is just text, or this one that has the photo in it? Of course the pretty girl helps, but the photo could be of a rock and it would be better than nothing if the rock were pertinent to the topic.
Of course you’d want to include a graphic that is relevant to your posting. If you’re in the flower business, what better than to include one like this one of beautiful Nicole.

Be sure to pick up my entire tutorial on how to do this. It’s a video that is about half an hour and shows how to upload a photo to a free photo hosting site so you can easily place it in all your Craigslist ads and how to make the photo ‘clickable’ so prospects will go to your website when they click on it. It also shows how to make your website link into a hyperlink (make it clickable) so they can just click on that too. See the difference below.

Are you taking advantage of the powerful — and free — capabilities of Craigslist marketing? You can place classified ads in a variety of sections to generate interest and then direct interested prospects to your website from there.
One sad mistake I see many people making is that they don’t make their website addresses or their images ‘clickable’. Or their images are clickable, but the clicks send the prospects to the image hosting sites rather than to the marketer’s website. I think that is a real stumbling block in the marketing process.
What I mean by that, is when a prospect hovers their mouse over an image and clicks, it’s often good marketing to send them to some destination. That’s especially true in Craigslist ads where you really should not try to sell anything — I think you should just try to generate interest and work on getting your interested prospects to your website via clickable weblinks and graphics.
Stay tuned – I’ve been so busy helping clients and learning Facebook, I’ve pretty much ignored this site. But I’ll soon have a video course available for entrepreneurs who would like to understand Facebook.
Way back when, I created a Facebook profile for my personal life, and a profile for my consulting life, and another profile for my hobby life.
I’m learning that they want you to create you’re personal profile and then create ‘pages’ off of that. Or start with what’s called ‘Pages’. And those are much more powerful for business, so if you just created regular pages for your business use, you should look into the more powerful pages. I’m doing an entire video series on the subject so be sure to check that out.
Today I’m going to show you how to make the links on your website open a new window so you keep your website open when visitors click on external links. Don’t lose your web visitors when they click on external links!
If you have as much trouble as I do aligning photos in WordPress, you might like my little video on how to deal with it.
