Just about everyone has placed a classified ad in the newspaper. If you have something to sell you want people to know about it right? Everyone knows that classified ads cost money. Sometimes something everyone knows is wrong. You can post classified ads for free.
Newspapers are the old school way of doing things. Newspapers provide a limited audience for what you want to sell. The classified ad in the paper is limited to only those who get the newspaper and then only those who are interested in buying something. A free classified ad posted on the Internet gets you more exposure and no cost.
You don't need to be a computer genius to search for websites for free classified ads. Your search will provide you with more pages of websites than you will care to scroll through. Before you post your free classified ad, you will want to think about who you want to see your ad.
Chances are you have heard about Craigslist. Craigslist is a website that posts free classified ads. Posting a free classified ad on this website involves little more than putting the item you want to sell into a category and then deciding what city or town you want it to fall under.

Unlike Craigslist, some websites provide free classifieds that are tailored to a particular locale. To find a website for free classified ads in your particular location, simply begin a Google search with the city name, Memphis for example, followed by free classifieds.
