How can people can post the same ad with the same wording and same pictures and same contact information on every craigslist in a 200 mile radius?
I tried to do it a couple times myself because I see it done all the time, and got slapped down by craigslist #2 IMMEDIATELY because it knew I posted the same exact ad on craigslist #1.
So, I tried changing the wording. Cragslist #2 IMMEDIATELY slapped me down again because the wording was "too similar" to another ad on another craigslist.
So, I completely changed the wording. Cragslist #2 comes right back and slaps me down because the pictures were the same as what I'd posted on craigslist #1!!!
So I used different pictures. Craigslist #2 slaps me down AGAIN because I'm using the same email address!
In order to post to multiple craigslists, you have to:
1. Completely rewrite the ad, using NO words from the original ad. "Farmall M" has to become "International Harvester tractor with letter between L and N" or else it won't let you post it.
2. Use completely different pictures. Apparently it compares some tag imbedded in the picture.
3. Come up with a completely different email account for each posting.
Yet, I see people posting IDENTICAL ads on half a dozen craigslists in the area! Sometimes half a dozen times on the same craigslist! HOW?
