    Hi,

    Is it worth submitting my site to a list of free classified ads?

    Will it helpful for either generating traffic or SE ranking?

    Please put forward your thoughts on this

    Better concentrate on Blogging, Social Bookmarking, Forums, Press Releases, Articles rather than classified ads,,, and Social Web2.0 which would be better,,,,,,,,,
    Its more than enough for SEO,,,,,,,,

    I would definitely stress for Blogging + Social Bookmarking as its the best for getting backlinks

    If you would want backlinks, concentrate on something better. But, if you want some traffic, it may help you to get some...

    Yes it is really worth it, its just the same effect with the paid classified ads the only difference is you have to wait for a few days or even a week to be review and approve your site, and yes again when it comes to generating traffic and ranking because its an ad people are used to search for an ads and once you been approve you are having your one way link to that website.

    Classified postings sure do generate business but this would largely depend on the classified resources you use to post your Ad. By far craigslist is the best and people have generated lots of business from it. But beware, craigslist hate spammers and any attempt to do this would get you banned for ever.

    If you have some stuff to sell on your website, then you should use classifieds. You can expect some traffic from free classified sites when you post your stuff regularly there

    Yes, just don't post that often. Concentrate on other things like social bookmarking, blog creation, article writing, etc.

    I have had very mixed results, but it seems with posting to free classified sites can be more of a waste of time rather than a benefit. Hardly anyone seems to really read them anymore, yet new ones are launched all the time.

    Yip, I've tried a few with minimal results. As you say though, if they are still new sites being launched, something must be working.
