    Hi JC!

    Let me try to enlighten you by answering your questions.

    First, yes you can post 20 ads daily but you will be needing 40 to 50 Phone Verified Accounts or PVAs. You will need to post with 20 PVAs EVRY 48 HOURS ONLY. Hence the need for more than 20 PVAs to be able to post on a daily basis. SInce you need to rotate them.

    Aside from PVAs, you will need to post using a unique US based IP address EACH TIME. Unique IP adresses or proxies can be bought from elite proxy companies out there.

    And when you do post, widen the interval of your posting sked. And use unique ads everytime. DOn't post the same thing over and oer again or it may send an alarm to Craigslist, and get your account banned or placed on hold.

    Ghosting is seeing your ad posted from your dashboard in Craigslist, but you can't see your ads when you try to search for it.

    HOpe these helps!

    I seen one company advertise boat loads of ads. They either have a boat load of phone numbers to be
    doing this, or they have some type of financial arrangement with CL. You can not tell me they can run
    so many ads and CL not know about it, and I am not talking about 2-3 ads, I am talking 50-75 ads...

    If it's a local business. You can post your ads on the local Craigslist in your area. And you do your postings there... But honestly if your business is targeted to the local market, doing it the old fashioned way of fliers, brochures, presentations would be the way to go.
