Have you ever tried to post the same ad over and over again in multiple cities on Classifiedads.com or Backpage.com? How did that work out for you? Not too well I bet.
Most likely all your ads were deleted. You see when you post ads to the top tier sites they do not want to have their sites blasted with ads all having the same titles and information. It looks really bad and affects the user experience in a negative way.
But the problem is if you just post one ad on these sites you do not get enough traffic to make it worth it.
So what is the solution? The solution is to develop 50 unique ads that you can post every few days to these sites.
But you are only promoting one product or service so how do you come up with 50 versions of your ads?
First of all you need to get creative. Let’s look at the titles.
My first suggestion is to go to Backpage.com and Classifiedads.com and even Craigslist and look at the titles your competitors are using. I guarantee you that you will get a lot of ideas. Take those ideas and modify them to your product or service.
Now go to YouTube and type in your keywords. Look at the titles of the most popular YouTube videos in your niche. Titles are the most important element of your ad because it is the first thing people see. If your title catches their attention they will click to learn more.
YouTube is the 2nd most used search engine after Google and Google owns YouTube. Yes, more people search for stuff using YouTube than both Yahoo and Bing. So if videos are getting to the top of YouTube you can bet they have great titles. Observe, learn and modify to suit your needs modeling those who are already successful.
Now let’s add some spice to your titles with a nice list of superlatives. I will give you my very own list of superlatives right here:

Warning:
Add some of these superlatives to your titles to make them even more interesting, intriguing and diverse.
Now what about your descriptions? One trick is just to use one of your titles as the description and then add a call to action.
For example your title could be: “Do you like to watch?”
Mix and Match Titles in The Descriptions Along With Calls to Action to Create Unique Descriptions
Then the description could be. “If you like to watch then this will blow your mind! Click here to watch this free video showing you how I am earning 6 figures from my laptop in a beach in Thailand.”
I used some of the title ideas in the description as well to create a unique description.
Another idea is to create ad descriptions from your Frequently Asked Questions section of your website. Each ad description can answer one FAQ and then include a call to action to offer them more info on your site.
Do you have blog posts? Each subject of your blog post could be an individual ad title and description.
Do you have YouTube videos? You can direct people to your different YouTube videos as well and these can be unique ads.
I am sure you can see that just be using your imagination you can come up with unique titles and descriptions. This way when you post your ads on Backpage.com and Classifiedads.com or any other site for that matter you will be posting unique ads and most likely your ads will not be deleted.
This is also a great way to test ad copy. You will see what titles work and which ones do not.
