    I'm seeking a successful way to get traffic to my site at low cost. Anyone with a successful marketing effort with low budget? I'm trying to market new site. http://www.thelgnteam.com

    On a limited budget I would focus on SEO, Link Building, Article Marketing & Social Bookmarking.

    For a more detailed explanation you can checkout my post on another thread by CLICKING HERE!

    If I were you though I would go after a less competitive niche.

    I turned to a Craigslist posting software called ezadposter.. basicaly it's full of bugs.. and would not recommend it.. so I have tried the Craigslist thing.. for other things but when you post in excess they filter you IP them basically get blocked.. so I'm out of 100 bucks and now back to link building and SEO Basic...

    I spent Spent Tons of $$$$ on Development on trying to match the largest website
    CreditCards.com on theme style and graphics..

    Suggestions tips n feedback here's my new website

    That is easy to get around. If you have a laptop and wifi antenna just drive around town and pick up an open wifi network and use the program from there. If they ban the IP then just move to the next open spot.

    If you post to a US city from a non-US IP address, apparently the post doesn't appear. Has anyone else noticed this?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but can't you just use a proxy?

    Oh ya! Posting on craigslist has never been easier for me!

    I am getting free traffic and making sales off them for only
    30 mins of work each day.

    Can easily make $300-500 per month on it :p

    Sad (or Happy?) to hear so many struggling to use it.

    Hmm so your using this EAP? what's your secret? I have tried the Proxy thing and everytime I get the " communication error" - I believe that it times out because of latency..

    Any suggestions.. would be Greatful!

    you should try some more work with proxy, there are so much software out on the internet to make your connection go through a proxy.

    But I have never had any luck with cragslist, I just gave it up a while ago, maybe all success stories are a lie, or I'm doing something completely wrong. :)

    I make about $150.00 a day selling tickets on Craigslist. I do know what some of you are talking about with having difficulties. I have tried to promote other affiliate programs that I am in and they will block your IP but only for a couple of days. I just wrote about this topic on my blog earlier today. I am still new here and admin will not let me post a live link. You can copy and paste it. If for some reason admin removes that, I will copy and paste my article. Here it is : http://ticketaffiliates.blogspot.com/2007/10/putting-your-ticket-affiliate-links-on.html

    Hi, what are your tips and/or advice.. I've hit some roadblocks when posting to CL... i have tried the proxy thing.. but it seems to " time out " because of latency... due to the location and quality of the proxy server..

    Any suggestions on a good proxy service here in the US? All of the premium proxy (paid) seems to be based overseas i.ie, India, Pakistan etc..and any posts that comes from outside the US to CL usualy get blocked very quickly

    Anyone? have any suggestions?
    thanks!

    Regards,
    Art..

    They haven't blocked my IP, but i have had my ads deleted quiet alot. LOL.
    I get up and post again. My reasoning is, if you don't like what iam selling, just move on. Iam just trying to make a buck!
