Although Craigslist is a popular place for advertising, there has been a lot of press lately about crimes and scams that are generated through the site. Sure, this could happen on any similar site but not to the same degree as long as the proper precautions have been put in place. Is there a safer free classified ad site? Yes, and it is Flugpo.com. I will tell you why:
Top 10 Reasons Flugpo Is Better Than Craigslist On Safety:
- Flugpo has a community to go along with their free classified ads which helps build recognition and trust.
- In order to post an ad, you need to be a member of Flugpo. This helps to put a name and a face with each ad.
- Flugpo allows you to choose who you want your ads shown to. You have the option of advertising to the whole community, to specific regions or just to your friends on Flugpo. Select the privacy level that you feel comfortable with.
- Flugpo has a testimonial feature. Testimonials allow you and others to provide written statements or endorsements for particular sellers and/or their products. This helps build credibility and trust within the community.
- Flugpo pays attention to the ads posted on the site. Flugpo has zero tolerance for scammers and has stopped scammers in their tracks.
- Flugpo asks its members to report misconduct and will take the proper measures to prevent misuse of the site.
- There is site entirely dedicated to the crimes associated with Craigslist ads. It is Craigscrimelist.org.
- Another site focuses on the "assery" of many Craigslist ads which shows just how many bogus ads are on there. It is Craigslist Curmudgeon.com and as the author of the site says "Because someone has to say it!".
- Flugpo is safer on your wallet. Although most Craigslist ads are free, there are some ads that you have to pay for. Flugpo is free. Always.
- Flugpo does NOT have an erotic section. Craigslist does and that is like having an open door policy to crime related ads.
