Question posted by trevorcole24 on November 7th, 2010

When I Post A Craigslist Ad I'm Told It's Published But It Doesn't Show Up. Why?

My account indicates the ad is published but it is not. I've learned this is called "ghosting" and I want to know how to fix the problem with my account. I am not a spammer and don't post that many ads.
