How to Create a Post on Craigslist

Craigslist is a website that allows users to post classified ads in a wide variety of categories, such as personals, employment, goods, services and housing. The site offers local ads for more than 700 communities in 70 countries and receives more than 20 billion page views per month. You can place an ad for free in most categories, but the site charges a fee for therapeutic services advertising, brokered New York City apartments and job listings in certain cities.
