I was reading an ebook, I forget which one, and it gave an example of how this guy made a killing on Craigslist by combining it with a dating affiliate site like Match.com.
Basically these dating affiliate sites pay per lead, meaning some give you $1 for every free signup you get plus a percentage of any upgrades.
The guy simply created a personal ad in several different craigslist areas and asked them to email him. He then emailed them back telling them to sign up for a free account at whateverdating.com and they would then be able to view his profile. He got $1 for each one who signed up.
Morals:
Of course he had to act like some 22 year old hotty, but it worked and made him money. Is this morally ok in your mind?
