Using Online Classifieds
There are two things that are a must for online classified ads, and they have to be done right otherwise you will not get the responses from your ads you are hoping for.
First: The Headline
This is very crucial. When people look through classifieds online, your headline has to grab their attention immediately. If your headline doesn't grab their attention, they will not click on it and never see your ad. Headlines for your classified ads are the key!
To use classifieds effectively you should create several different headlines so that your ad headlines are not duplicated when posting your ads to the classified sites.
Second: The Ad Body
Once a person opens your ad, your number one goal is to get them to respond to it - That's It! Do not try to sell them in the ad at all - PERIOD! Your ad should only build excitement to where they want to see more.
This is where we see many people make mistakes when using classifieds. If you give too much information in your classified ad, the person reading it will have no reason to click on your link and see more. Always keep your classified ads short and build excitement. Get the person reading it to want more information.
For your classified ad bodies, you will always want several ads to avoid duplication when placing your ads on the classified sites.

Notice: Backpage has implemented an ip marker and an account tracker with their systems. This means if you place more than 3 ads on in their classified network using the same ip address and/or same email address, they will block your ads from being posted and also prevent you from placing further ads.
There are ways to get around these systems, but it involves switching your ip address and using multiple email accounts.
This may sound complicated, but it is not. If you do not want to go through the trouble of switching your ip address or having multiple email addresses, that is fine. Just only place a maximum of 3 ads a day on backpage.
To switch your ip address is not that complicated for the most part. Often times you only have to disconnect your internet connection then reconnect it and you will have a different ip address.
To check to see if this will work for you, simply check your ip address now, then disconnect your internet connection and wait 30 seconds and then reconnect your internet connection. Then check your ip address again.
If you do not know how to check your ip address, just simply go to the link below.

This will display your ip address.
Now if the above doesn't work, you will want to create an alternate connection with a dial up service such as copper.net or if you can use some of the available software online to switch your ip address while placing ads on backpage.
Now if your ads do get blocked on backpage, then you need to take the above actions to switch your ip address before trying to place any more ads. Once you have switched your ip address, then you will want to use completely new email accounts with backpage so your old accounts and your new accounts have no connections.
Remember to create several email accounts for backpage, and be sure to switch your ip address every time you use a different email address.
When you set up your email addresses, be sure to set-up the vacation responder to send out the following message:
Creating An Alternate Connection & Hiding Your IP Address
One of the ways to switch your ip address is by creating an alternate dial up connection with your computer. Please note that this would be an alternate connection specifically for placing ads on backpage and will not replace your normal internet connection.

Another way you can switch your ip address is by using software to mask your ip address. One solution to switching your ip address with software is "Hide My IP", and it works very well.
