How Do I Delete Craigslist Posts?
Craigslist.org, more commonly referred to as Craigslist, is a mostly free community posting website open to anyone and everyone for just about anything and everything. You can post jobs, small gigs, resumes, creative services, wanted ads, for sale ads and even rants on Craigslist. As of February 2011, Craigslist has localized community websites in cities all over the world, with versions of the website in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German and Portuguese. Craigslist lets you post ads and announcements without an account, but you must keep your confirmation email in order to edit or delete your post. If you create a free account with Craigslist, you can edit and delete posts without your confirmation email.
