Online directories you should be using

Following are open stats for the last couple of weeks on a few of the top performing flyers created on ClassifiedFlyerAds.com.  The counts are for the top performing flyers combined but should give you an idea on what directories you should be using. 

Note: Flyers created on ClassifiedFlyerAds.com automatically post to most of these directories.  Some directories such as Craigslist do not allow open tracking (against terms) so are not included within these counts.

As you can see natural Google search outweights opens from directories by far.  This means you should be looking into ways to get your listings ranked in search engines for natural searches. Following are a few suggestions on how you can accomplish this.

  1. Blog and post your listings to your ActiveRain blog.  When you post your listings to your AR blog make sure and choose the "For Consumers (Posted to Localism)" option and choose "Post to Localism" group.  Google picks up many AR posts and increases your chances of making page in the search engines.
  2. Get all of your listings online by creating online flyers or single property sites for them or by creating a unique listing page for each listing on your website.
  3. Create online profiles and on your profile pages make sure and add a link to a page that includes all your listings.  A few good places to create a profile are LinkedIn, ClassifiedFlyerAds.com, MyBlogLog, FaceBook and of course ActiveRain
  4. Syndicate your listings to top directories

Hope this helps you decide on the best ways and places to market your listings.
