FAQ About Mammoth Classifieds

What is the purpose of Mammoth Classifieds?

Our goal is to create centralized location for all things local in the Eastern Sierra. Social Media is great, but we find that posts get lost in separate groups, and buried by other posts. 

Why was Mammoth Classifieds Created?

When moving to Mammoth Lakes, ourselves and many others find it hard to connect with the best in the Eastern Sierra. From the Best Contractors, to the Best Homes for Rent, Events, and much more. 

We’re hoping to help people find local information about the best in the Eastern Sierra, through Google and our own Marketing Channels.

How is Mammoth Classifieds better than Social Media?

Many reasons! 

  • Your listing will likely show up for keywords on Google, Bing, & Yahoo. (plus other search engines)
  • You can feature or promote your listing on this website.
  • You can cross-promote your listing on Social Media Channels.
  • Your listings can stay live for extended periods of time vs social media posts which can become buried or expire. 
  • You can get a custom consultation for other marketing needs related your business.

Who is behind Mammoth Classifieds?

A small team of web developers, content writers, graphic designers, and marketing strategist are behind Mammoth Classifieds. 

We love helping local businesses generate leads.
