Classified advertising for your business
By business on November 28th, 2009
Classified advertising is a form of advertising which is particularly common in newspapers, and online. Classified advertising differs from standard advertising or business models in that it allows private individuals to solicit sales for products and services.
The market for classified ads in the United States was $15.9 billion (newspapers), $14.1 billion (online) according to market researcher Classified Intelligence. The worldwide market for classified ads in 2003 was estimated at over $100 billion. Perhaps due to a lack of reporting solidarity Market Statistics vary concerning the total market for internet classified ads. The Kelsey Research Group lists online classified ads as being worth $13.3 billion, while Jupiter Research provides a conservative appraisal of $2.6 billion (2005) and the Interactive Advertising Bureau lists the net worth of online classified revenue at $2.1 billion (April 2006). You can promote your business in online classified ads like Craigslist, Kijiji, and postclassifiedsblog.
