I just started using Backpage since Craigslist has essentially banned me.

200+ ads posted across the United States, and abysmal hops.

With Craigslist, on a slow day, 200+ hops, plus adsense revenue.

With backpage, and 200 ads across major cities, 11 hops.

Backpage so far has been the worst performing free classified ads page I've ever worked with.
