vb.org Archive - View Single Post - What are you doing about DEAD Craigslist Links?

oldengine · #1 10-16-2014, 12:11 PM

Craigslist finders and posters are a PITA. At first, I set up a forum just for those listings and it got out of control. There are craigslist ads throughout my site now and the links are dead in seven days or less. The guys like the ad finders, but there has to be a better way.

What are you doing about the dead links? I did a search here and found nothing negative about their dead links. I set up a classified ad section for them, but they want discussion capability about the ads. Unfortunately, they post only the link, no text, no photos, so when it's dead it's REALLY DEAD!
