Formally, Craigslist is a free-to-use website for viewing and posting ads. This website works similar to the Classifieds section of a newspaper, where you can find almost anything, from jobs, apartments, garage sales and used cars to personal ads and a lot more.
Craigslist allows people to easily connect with others near them to find, buy, or even sell literally anything. And because it is a free platform, users are able to find things that people don’t normally post on a paid classified ad. Many have even posted things for free, as long as buyers are willing to pick them up.
Signing up on Craigslist is very simple and easy, as well as making a post. If you want to verify you phone number before posting an ad, then there is a perfect tool for you: virtual numbers provided by us, Major Phones.
Our US Non VoIP numbers for verification can easily help you bypass Craigslist phone validation process in a fast and secure way. In this guide, you’ll learn how to create a Craigslist post and to verify your phone number with our SMS verification service.
This guide is made for users residing in the US, but if you’re not in the US and still want to set up your account as if you were, you can use a residential proxy. This way you can connect to web pages of the United States from a residential IP address, just as if you were there.
Step 1: sign in through our homepage
Go straight to our website and click on “Sign Up” if you still don’t have a Major Phones account, or click on “Sign In” if you already do.
For more information, go watch our main tutorial. Next, enter your email and password and click on “Sign In”.
Step 2: purchase a Craigslist virtual number
Now that you’re on your Dashboard, click on “Select Country” at the top right and select “United States”. Then, go to the “Services” tab and click on “Short-term numbers”.
On the search bar, type “Craigslist” and go to craigslist.org to start creating your post. Once you’re there, click on “my account”.
Step 3: sign up
Once you’re in, enter your email and click on “Create account”.
To continue with your sign up process, go to your email to verify it.
Once your email has been verified, create a secure password and click on “Set Password”.
Then, click on “Go to my account home page” and then on “create posting ”to create your first post.
Now, choose all the options about your ad.
Once you add a description about your add, it’s time to enter a phone number provided by us: Major Phones. Once this is done, click on “Continue”.
Step 4: purchase your Craigslist short-term number
Our short-term numbers can be used for one-time verifications – some of them might even be re used, but not all. If you need to verify your account again, it could be possible for you to re use your virtual number to do so. However, we strongly recommend you to purchase a long-term number instead so that you can use it as many times as you want within the rental period.
Go back to our website to get your Craigslist temporary number and click on the blue “Purchase” button.
Click on the checkbox to confirm your purchase and then on the “Next” button.
Once you get your number, click on the “Copy” button.
Step 5: enter the assigned number
Now that you have entered your Craigslist number, you will have to add your location on the map. After this, click on “continue”.
Once you are satisfied with your post, click on “publish”.
Now, you will have to verify the number you entered before, so paste it again on the “Phone Number” field and click on “continue”.
Go back to your Major Phones account to get the verification code and, once you paste it on the empty field, click on “submit”.
Once you have successfully verified the number, click on “Return to your account home page” where you will see all the details about your post.
If you want to get more information about your Craigslist verification number, go to the “Purchases” tab and click on “Short-term numbers”.
Share, post, sell or buy safely on Craigslist using our virtual numbers without compromising your real phone number. Go ahead and sign up!
