Zillow now charging for Rental Listings

Zillow now charing $9.99/wk for a rental listing. Greedy scum since they didn't turn profit this quarter. They say you IF you don't get any leads after a week it's free....but I know if its any leads like you get as a Real Estate Agent I'd rather take a bullet to my head as they are not quality at all

What other sites are landlords using that are FREE?
Craigslist?

Hotpads and Trulia are owned by Zillow so no getting around that.

Just seeing what other landlords are doing to work around this. OR if they have noticed their PM up charging them now for advertising on these websites?

Facebook is by far my best source. There's likely a Cleveland, Ohio rental group on Facebook (assuming that's your local market). Join it and post your listings there for free. I would venture to guess 75% of my vacancies have been filled thanks to Facebook and now that number will rise as I'm not paying Zillow or any other site for that matter (mainly because Facebook is superior and free).
