This really depends on the classified site your are posting to. The key is to do split tests, also referred to as A/B testing. And, there are multiple ways you'll need to test in order to become successful at it.
First, test different verbiage in your ads. Mix it up some. Try using different headlines. Headlines are the key since this is what will entice prospects to click on your ad. Pay attention to your stats within each classified site. Most will have some type of reporting to show you how many times your ad was displayed and clicked on. If you're getting a lot of clicks but not a lot of sign ups, then it's most likely the text within your ad. If your ad is being displayed a lot but you're not getting a lot of clicks, try mixing up your headline. Think of headlines that would cause you to click on it. What would get your attention?
The next thing to test would be the day of the week and time you're posting your ads. To do this, you'll need to post the same ad on multiple days and times. Use different key codes to test what day and time works the best. Once you find a good combination, make sure to continually post during that time.
You may also find that each classified site is different. Don't completely abandon an ad just because it didn't do well on a particular site. It may work great on another site.
This may sound a bit confusing, but all it really takes is some time and observation. Once you start to see success, rinse and repeat!
