    I heard it requires programming knowledge to tweak it.

    And another thing, do you know what he's talking about? how is he making those sales? what kind of money or who's hiring to post those ads. what kind of ads are they?

    Suffice it to say that he/she is lying. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof and a 'screen shot' is not proof of anything. An image and words is all there is here and you guys are getting excited. There is no magical Craigs List marketing plot.

    As far as programming skills go, sure you can write a program that exploits some current weakness in CL defenses but the question is how long will the exploit last once you start using it? Probably not very long.

    Sorry for the delay in responding to all of your input. Basically I had a 5 computer setup with the CLBOTPRO software over 5 dynamic DSL connections out putting roughly 800-1000 ads a day. I was getting paid from my employer. Basically what I was doing is advertising an informational kit with local listings on how to get into a foreclosure and pre foreclosure scenario. I created the ads and setup the campaigns to produce the leads for the business. I didn't have any other involvement other then I was paid a percentage to generate leads. Based off that percentage is how I made money. It was a nice sum of money to be posting ads on craigslist. I couldn't have done it without CLBOTPRO. One person running 5 computers at once, would be nearly impossible manually entering captcha. Although Captchaking CLBOTPRO'S human captcha entry bypass has worked wonders for getting those ads up consistently and constantly. Just figured I would throw up a little bit about how and what I did. Hope this clarifies the process for you.

    Once I find a picture of my old lab/setup with the 5 computers I will throw it up. Searching for it now.

    I use craigslist for one of my websites. It can make you money. But you have to be realistic, not every type of website is going to see benefits from it. The vast majority of people here are running blogs and generally thats not the type of website that could really see any traffic from craigslist. Usually you need to be in ecommerce or something along those lines.

    You need to find the proper product to sell. Pre-foreclosure listings are hot in the apartment for rent area on CL.

    *chuckles* Jesus, this guy will believe anything.

    I heard some sell brains there.

    You might want to buy one.

    Once you find a good fit, let the other idiots in this thread know too.

    God I used to love killing CL back in the day. Had my admaster fired up, running on two of my machines, the traffic was insane, I was banking 1.5-2k/week with ease ... But boy how things have changed. I got tired and burned out of always changing or adding something to my posting techniques. So I moved on, but I give a nod to those of you who have stuck it out and overcome the beast.

    I see that craiglists is filled with ads for sex in the wanted section. basically adult sites and adult services
    others are "loans" get your loans for this and that, go to this website, etc.,

    this is the stuff that the guy is talking about making him 170k in 6 months.

    When cl fails that will be the day. There is no way that 1 billion pages views a month is going to change. There is to much traffic and money being exchanged. Its great for the economy. There backed by google and ebay. Good luck.

    BTW I was selling a technique of how to get into a pre-foreclosed property with no credit check and no down payment. It was 200 a pop for the membership that I offered on craigslist nationwide. We were making about 50+ sales a day. You do the math. $200 * 50 sales * 30 days gets you a gross of 300k a month. There are people that are making way more then that. The key is to have a hot product that everyone wants. Everyone wants to own there own home and stop renting.

    Does anyone actually browse all those CL ads?
    CL is OK like other classified websites but the main problem with it is the thousands of spam messages posted there day after day.
