The Evolution of Classifieds




  • If you wanted to buy a second hand car 25 years ago, the most common and efficient way to do that would be by collecting the local paper from the doorstep, sitting on the couch and browsing the classified’s section until a particular Ford Mustang caught your eye. The process would then involve calling a phone number or visiting a house address to go purchase the car. Buying from print classifieds was always a slow and tedious transaction and it was just a matter of time before someone would reinvent the market. In 1995, Ebay and Craigslist created innovative products that would change the internet forever- online classifieds.
