How to determine if your ads are flagged by Craigslist or normal people

You might wonder if it's really important to know why your ads are removed from Craigslist.

If you are working as an ad poster, you really want to find out why.

First of all, ad removal affects your phone verified account.
If you get too many flags, your account will be stopped quickly even if the account is a newer one.
So, the best thing is to know how to keep your account active and safe.


You will get notice by Craigslist if your ads are removed by the Craigslist admin., assuming they are not ghosted(which means that your ads appear to be fine, with no notice, but they don't show up on CL ad pages).
It simply says that your ads are removed from the lists.
This means, your ads are too easy to be determined as duplicates.
In this case, take great care to change your ads!!
Because shortly, Craigslist will stop your account.

If your ads are removed by normal people, you won't get a notice at all.
It'll just be removed, or flagged for removal.
But, this means, your ads will be flagged for some reason in Craigslist soon.
Those ads removed by normal people are not as important as removed ads by Craigslist, they can flag them for any reason, basically. I had a guy that I found out was flagging my ads because he was posting ads for a competing product! There are a LOT of haters and self-appointed CL cops on craigslist, beware!
However, if you get too many removed by other CL users, Craigslist will also stop your account.


Now, you see the trick.
The removal from Craigslist means, you have to change your contents soon.
The removal by other users mean that you're being warned. You need to change the contents if you get too many flags.

WAHM.com

I think that everyone knows about this site.

WAHM.com is here.

I won't say that all of the jobs that this site lists are good, but this site has a very good forum, so you can post and get help from other people.

Whenever you worry about some companies, just go there and search if other people have posted about them.

How to post the same ad on Craigslist??

If you don't know about HTML code, this is the way to post the same ads on Craigslist.
I think that you already know that Craigslist prevents duplicates. You cannot post the same ad even if you change the states, cities, countries, etc.
When I started to post ads, this was a big problem because Craigslist's system reads & scans the first and second sentences you post, as well as other parts (which change frequently).

So, you really don't need to change other sentences, what you need to change is the first & second sentences.
Now, it becomes a bit easier!
You simply post easy greetings if it is difficult to make extra sentences; for example, "Happy holidays!"
However, sometimes they don't read the exclamation mark "!" and question mark "?", but only the period ".".

If they didn't read those, change the sentence to "Happy holidays."

You can also change around the placement of both sentences.

For example, if you post "Happy holidays! Are you looking for a great deal on a car?"

The next post, you can do "Are you looking for a great deal on a car? Happy holidays!"
Sometimes, this will come back as a duplicate, but it still works sometimes.



Also, if you have some pics you are posting, it is possible to be "ghosted".

(Ghosted ads mean the ads are gone even though your accounts show that your ads are successfully posted. You can't find your ads on Craigslist, either.)

I think it's because of the same pics.
Does it sound like too much work to post ads?

No worries.

Craigslist's system searches for duplicates from Monday to Sunday.

This means, you can't use the same sentences for a week; however, you CAN post the same sentences that you posted a week ago.



So, Monday is always the easiest day to post ads :)

Is New England Crafters (Magical Gift Company) a Scam?

Many people worry if Magical Gift Company is a scam.

This is a real job.

You get paid for what you work. However, you don't get paid that much.
Once, you are approved as a crafter, you receive more materials.
Many approved workers struggle at this time because the products take too much time, even for just 10!
Some crafters can take 2 to 3 days to make 10, but some workers take up to a week.

It's very difficult. NEC is a real company to sell what you make, so they always need good products and workers.

Of course, you can make it! But you need to make all of them perfect otherwise, your products will be rejected and you won't get paid.

This company, NEC, is very legitimate, and has great customer service. If you need help or have questions, you can call New England Crafters or go to their forum. They have a great forum for the crafters who need help to get approved.

However, there are many complaints for this company.

Why?
Because, many people realize that they won't get paid as much as they want (If it takes 2 days to make 10 $1 projects, the pay is $5 a day), or they can't pass their inspections for a long time, etc.
It could be many reasons.

They never say to quit because you can't pass. Some crafters require doing the inspections over 7 or 8 times before they are approved and start to work. You also have to wait until your inspection comes back. It takes about 2 to 3 weeks. If your inspection was approved, you'll see your name on their "Newly Approved Assemblers" list.

For me, this job is not for everyone who is looking for a work at home opportunity.

Then, who is good for this company?
Just go to their website and check it out.
You realize that the workers are either retired people, moms who need to stay at home for babies, college students, etc.
They are all busy doing something else.
This job is good for those people, I think. The workers are all happy that they can have a work at home opportunity including myself.

If you think you have a lot of time and can make many as a full time worker, just take a minute and think it over.
You really can't work with this company full time.
The company is always busy, so sometimes, the shippment for the projects don`t come for over a month.
Some people call this company up and try to hurry them, but they are going as fast as they can.
So, you really can't decide how much you can make in a month, it's really up to when you receive the shipment.
I would say this is a part time job.


Don't make a decision yet!
Once you are approved, and make 10 pieces, you realize that this is way too much.
I think you may have read a couple of websites about those difficulties.
Yes, during the first 10 pieces, and the next one, at first, you might think this is a slave job. (Because you get paid $1 for a piece, and it might take even 3 hours to make one! )
But, as you make their products, it will become easier and faster, so if you just started, hang on for couple months!

I always think these difficulties are nothing when you consider using gas to go to a job.
You have no boss and you don`t have to travel.
It's good for people who need a little extra money.

Some of the crafters have main full time jobs and work as crafters part time.
You can be at home at night and make products while listening to your favorite music or something.

You can also post and ask a question to real workers on their forum. They are all nice and love to help each other!
You just need to be patient with them. Very patient!
