Purchase a Cheap Classified Site
Work at Home with my new
Classified Ad Site
So you think you want to earn money by buying and
promoting a Classified Ad site??????
One day I decided that I wanted to earn money
by working at home, but I had no idea what type of work at home job
I wanted. After searching the internet for various work at
home programs, I finally decided that I wanted a work at home
business that would pretty much run itself, on auto-pilot.
I decided that I wanted a
Classified Advertising site, that allowed me to earn an income by
placing paid text ads, paid banner ads, paid display ads on my site.
As a second income stream I wanted to place google adsense on my
classified site.
Having a limited amount of
money to spend on getting my classified ad business up and running I
decided to find the cheapest classified site I could purchase.
I search online for days, and finally was lead to ebay, where I
keyed in Classified Advertising Site. Out of 15 or 20
results, and visiting the demo sites, and see what was offer in the
packages, I finally decided to purchase from
plconcrete(
376 )
This was a website being sold for only $19.99.
What a deal!!! It came with many extras, and rewards,
including lifetime support and a low $4.95 monthly hosting, which I
actually ended up getting my hosting for a discounted price of only
$14.95 per year, since the website seller owns the hosting company
Ankzone.com The demo site address will be
located here: __________________________ as soon as I can get
the server to respond. My actual classified site is located
below. I will try to upload a picture of what the site should
look like and a picture of what the site actually looks like to
google documents located here:
____________________________________once I can actually get either
of the servers to respond.
Hint:
Test your website before assuming
it is complete. Supply no feedback until your website is
working the way you expect it to.
After my website was up I went in to do some
testing and communicated with customer service what was working and
what was not. My main problem was getting the google ads that
were initially on the right border to work with the program.
Hint: Always visit the demo
site several times a day before purchasing in order to see if the
server is capable of bringing up your site, and not giving your
visitors a "page not found" error message. Visit, visit and
visit before purchasing
After, a few days of working on the classified
site, I was informed that a solution had been found to make my
google ads work correctly. I went to visit my site and
received a "page not found" error. this occurred quite a few times,
however I was ultimately able to get into the website.
When I went in to review the website my google ads
were now at the top left hand corner of the page, however the
classified site information was way down below, and you had to
scroll down to see what was suppose to be the top of my page.
I immediately sent a email stating that "this would definitely not
be workable" .
Hint: You can always monitor
your site and get constant updates on your website's performance by
signing up with some type of website monitoring program that will
send you alerts on your website's performance.
In an attempt to check to see if
the changes had been made I continued to check my website, and began
to get a lot of "page not found" errors. I wondered if this
was common and decided to sign up at AlertSite.com.
At Alertsite.com I began to receive constant updates on my site.
From October 12th the day I signed up to October 15, 2007 I received
close to and possibly over 100 alerts which I will paste a picture
of my scheduled alert information below.
My site was contacted 288
times and only available 165 times, with 123
errors. I received 64 alerts. See
the original alert posted here

Hint:
Send a few question to the
seller, if international. This will help you to determine if a
language barrier may keep you from being able to have a open, and
understandable line of communication.
I chose a domain name
www.esva-classifieds.com for Free and they hosted in Ankzone.com
for only $14.95 per year. My site was up in just a few days.
Yes, they had to do some adjustments, to make my google ads work,
but there customer service was superior during the process. I
was sooooo happy, I sent them a positive "I'm happy" email and I
also gave them great feedback on ebay.

From reading this report it looks
like my classified ad site was checked 288 times
and only available 165 times. That mean
that I would be losing a lot of possible visitors. This was not
something that I could live with, and I had to make a choice if I
would request a refund or continue hoping that maybe one day the
server would be upgraded. Well, after a few moment of
contemplation I decided against requesting a refund.
*** Did I tell you that with my purchase of
this classified site, I received lots and lots of marketing SEO
resource information??? *** Well, it was quite an
awesome bit of information, and it provided so much insight into
marketing your website, that I was quite overwhelmed. Just one
of the tips received from list list of resources really, allowed my
site to be listed in google in just a few days. This is
something that I'd always thought was a lot of hype, but it proved
to be very successful. So, I decided to keep my "not so nice
classified website", in exchange for the wonderful resources I
received &
if you check back for my updates I
might just share this information with you.
Did I lose money on my classified
website????
No, I don't thinks so....... When I applied to do this review,
to share my Classified Ad Site journey, I negotiated the review for
$40.00 with updates if necessary. I paid out about $35.00 for
the classified ad site, therefore I am in profit of about $5.00
currently. I plan to promote my review here, and with
advertising to my page I expect that my journey with work at home by
purchasing a classified ad website will be well worth the
investment.
It is October 15, 2007 and I have been trying
most of the day to get the server to open the demo classified
website and my website so that I can complete this program review.
If you have come to my page and the information is not yet
available, please check back. I will update this information
as soon as the websites will come up.
October 17, 2007 Its been two
days of trying to access my site, but this morning I finally got my
site to come up. I decided to take a picture and post it on my
google documents page
here;
http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ddzwknzk_6dsdzpc in the
event that you are unable to access the site for any reason. My
Document page show the original demo, as well as what I came out
with.
The original demo site is located here:

October
27, 2007 Visited my classified ad website
http://www.esva-classifieds.com/ and found
that it was
fixed.....perfectly fixed and just
sitting there. I was amazingly surprise.
So I am very glad that I did not complain,
complain, complain, and request my money back.
This web designer could have easily said "well,
they haven't contacted me so, I can just leave
it the way it is, however they did not. So
I would like to say
kudo's to the designers of classifiedtrix,
kudo's to the host Ankzone.com for
making improvements. Remember updates are
posted in my google doc above
