In December 2016 Craigslist finally went to paid ads in the For Sale by Dealer Sections. Craigslist charges $3/ad in most sections with a couple of sections charging $5/ad. The bottom line with For Sale by Dealer ads is that you are able to post much higher quality ads which in turn can increase your sales and conversions. Ultimately the Paid For Sale by Dealer ads enabled those needing to post higher quantity of ads the ability to reduce their overall ad spend whether you were posting manually or utilizing a posting service or outsourced manual Craigslist Posters.

However, Craigslist posting limits per account remain in place which can and will effect your marketing effectiveness if you are trying to post ads manually or with software that doesn’t work. For those that need to post multiple ads per day and especially for those that have products to market in multiple or even nationwide markets, it can become virtually impossible.
