Craigslist


Craigslist is the brainchild of Craig Newmark, and has become one of the most popular sites on the Internet. Started in San Francisco in 1995, craigslist is perhaps the ultimate site for classified listings. It offers job advertisements, personal ads, ads for cars, pets, home supplies and a plethora of other choices. The website is built around communities, and craigslist now offers sites in 450 cities and countries throughout the world. Financial information about the nonprofit company is not disclosed, but business experts believe craigslist is worth over 10 million US dollars (USD).

For the most part, posting and reading ads on craigslist is free. The revenue made from craigslist is generated by people posting job ads at significantly below market rate. As of 2004, job ads for large businesses cost 75 USD in San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area. In other cities and countries, job ad postings cost 25 USD. To post an ad in the "gigs" section of the want ads is free. Craigslist does not post banners ads, preferring to earn money only through job posting revenue.

With caution, craigslist can be an excellent site for searching jobs or for finding just about anything. Also, craigslist has numerous forums for people seeking information about new cities they may be visiting or moving to. Some users of craigslist devote time to “watchdog” blogs so that other users can check out the claims of craigslist ads prior to responding to them. The Craigslist community can be a great asset for buying and selling things, discussing popular topics, or when looking for: information, jobs, friends, mates or dates. Here are some of the main sections presented in order as they currently appear on the site.
