How I make $7/day with Amazon 5 minutes work required.

putting it on ebay will get your account banned. i know, i tried this a few months ago.
 
Wow...cool method! Too bad Craigslist is making it so hard for people outside the US to post ads.
 
This is good for long term.
Did anyone tried to add some backlinks?
I think I'll give it a try right now.
 
There is one easy way to find out. TRY IT.

I just posted an ad for a tv at $350, amazon's normal price is $400, but they sell it for $300. Gonna see if I get any emails. I intentionally was vague in the posting (said 32" HDTV, but didn't say the brand or anything) in order to (hopefully) get some emails asking about specs. I will then direct them towards the amazon page (through my aff link) to the tv, they will see it is cheaper and hopefully buy.
Also I am faking the referrer as my real blog site that has actual ads for the tv up.

This is good for long term.

The only way to get around craiglist for non US is buy phone verified CL (search in bhw) and make sure you login with DEDICATED proxies or else you're gonna get your account banned.
 
Is anybody still using this method and making at least $10/day? Is it better to email back a non-shortened Amazon link or should you shorten it? I doubt that Amazon will ban you 'cause the referrer is an email...comments?
 
I've been trying this for a week or so now on a smaller degree.

All in all it's basically 200+ views across 13 ads (6-38 views) every two days posted in one city. Only 5 clicks to Amazon between 4 of the items and no sales. The one with two views is the second highest ad viewed and the other 3 are popular kids toys.

Just trying to get a feel to what people are looking for before going into multiple cities.

I can see this still working and once you find something that converts you can increase the amount of cities you post it in to get more conversions while minimizing your time on the project as it's simply reposting.

As for my ads, I post the links directly in them (I don't use CL) and don't use a shortener. I may try it for my next repost and see if the clicks to Amazon increases at all.

idk guys ive done this it didnt work for me, not too poop on your party but Craigslist bans man pretty quick you need multiple mobile verified accts. and the only thing you really get out of doing this from my experience was targeted leads...
 
has anyone tried this with other classified site? I have a list of over 1200 classified sites and that's a lot of work but for long term money it may work?
 
Can you get flagged for this by Amazon if they find out?
 
Great idea from 4 years ago. Even now with a great VPN and lots of PVAs you could scale this to 200 bucks a day. I think the best idea in the whole thread was to look in the wanted section, and then Email those members looking for something to buy. Ex: Are u still looking for that Car/TV/laptop? Then when they respond to you in email, you respond with your ad that has your redirected link in it. Or i have a brand new one of those, check this link out.. Either way its all about dropping that cookie so if they do end up buying it on amazon you get the credit.
 
Wouldn't it just be easier to list on CL for slightly more than the amazon price and have them e-mail you. Then when they do just have them pay you and then have the item shipped to them? Or is there something wrong with this because from what people say it looks like people will buy at the slightly higher price, leaving room for profit (say $10-$20, perhaps more).
 
new to the IM journey and this method sure looks simple :P, thanks a lot
