It’s All Over, Folks. Hurricane Craig(slist) Has Flattened North America.

November 05 2013

showmojo hurricane craigWe only just finished our Hurricane Craig Tracker in time to watch the bitter end.

Did you see it? The change rolled through Florida all of last week. And it hit Texas on Friday. Today, all of the sudden, it went nation-wide and into Canada.

Dubbed Hurricane Craig, this change is a seismic shift in Craigslist's posting policy throughout North America. Many of the most commonly-used HTML tags in Craigslist are now disallowed. This includes images, tables, most text markup, and anything but the most bare-bones of links.

If you are posting to Craigslist, what does this mean for you?

Practically every Craigslist template ever written can now be put through the shredder.

  • You have to upload your photos using the much-lampooned Craigslist photo gallery. Pro tip: when selecting photos to upload, use the Control key (Command key on the Mac) to select all the photos you want to upload in one go.
  • Readability just became much more important. Your template and over-sized photos will no longer carry the day. Renters are now going to have to face down page after page of mind-numbing text. So structure yours for an easy and quick read, with the most important items first.
