Trying to make Craigslist postings easier to do as well as add elements to make the posts look more attractive (i.e. HTML design elements).

So I created a simple HTML template in Dreamweaver then cut and pasted it into a Word Document to use as a template.

I then took the text areas that are unique to each property and isolated it with extra space (Craigslist ignores extra space thankfully), then I made the editable areas a large, red font that says "Place X Here" (see sample below).

Then all I need to do when I want to create a new listing is:

1) Cut and copy the template into a new Word file.

2) Replace the Large Red Text by cutting and pasting the text I need out of our MLS.  Ignore all the black text so it's unchanged.

3) Save the finished document so I can use it again later.

4) Cut and paste the entire document into Craigslist.

Now in a few minutes I can have a Craigslist posting online that utilizes my IVR!

I'll attach my template in a Word format if anyone wants to use it.

SAMPLE:

When you're looking at my template it looks like this below...

</b></font><font color="#990000"><br></font><br></p></div>

<div align="left"><p><font size="-1" face="Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif">

Place Body Description from MLS Profile Here- Edit if needed.

</font></p><p></p><div align="center">

<p><font face="Helvetica, Geneva, Arial, SunSans-Regular, sans-serif"><b>For up-to-the-minute pricing and availability please call</b></font><br>
