June 20 2013
Guest contributor Properties Online says:
For all the attention given to Zillow and Trulia, the fact of the matter is that even if you combine their power, Craigslist still drives more traffic to single property websites. Craigslist's sheer size, volume and community offer a landmine to real estate agents online. This is why Craigslist is your ticket to home sale leads.
Seasoned agents know the truth – when you place a listing on Craigslist, it gets you more traffic and leads than any other real estate portal.
Craigslist> was started in 1995 by Craig Newmark with the modest goal of helping people find affordable housing in San Francisco. It is now the most popular online classifieds website in the world, with over 10 million monthly visitors.
"Agents can take advantage of this huge traffic by posting free ads and by scanning 'seeking homes' ads and answering them," says Amanda Cornelius, cofounder and CEO of Properties Online.
Craigslist is free to use in most locations, making it a valuable, affordable lead-generating machine. Create single ads for specific properties, or an ad listing all your available properties for an area, with no coding design or HTML knowledge necessary.
