In our last article about how to sell beats online we discussed Article Marketing, in this article I will tell you about Classifieds Marketing, another way of getting links to your beat selling website.What is Classifieds Marketing?
Classifieds marketing is posting ads on Backpage, Craigslist etc. it is a great way to build back links also which will help improve your search engine rankings.
It is a great way of getter cost effective targeted traffic, because it’s free and allows you to pick what section and city to post in.
Tips for Posting on Classifieds Sites
Here are a few tips that I can give you for posting on classified sites.
Titles
Your titles should be eye catching, and stand out from the rest. For example;
The hip hop beats YOU have been hearing about…
Need HOT exclusive dirty south beats?
The beats you rap on SUCK!
Using a question mark and ellipses invokes the user to think.
Body
There isn’t really any secrets of what to put in here, basically all you want to do is describe your beats, why they should buy your beats and not anyone elses.
If you have had any placements include them in your ad, this helps improve the potential customers’ confidence. Include 3-5 placements.
You will want a good call to action, of what you want them to do. For example;
For a GREAT deal call us on (+44) 79 743 86 467 RIGHT NOW!

Pictures / Video
You should always upload pictures or a video with your ad, this helps you ad stand out. The pictures can be your logo, a picture of you or your video could be a sample compilation of your beats, it really doesn’t matter as long as you have one or the other.
