The classified program is a great option for any active website that wants to capitalize on its traffic by selling ad space or providing a free classified for their users. The program is a standard feature at is available to everyone with a hosting account.

The classified is very configurable allowing you to specify categories, sub categories and pricing and options. You can allow users to post free ads or charge them for the ads. The program will auto expire ads at the time interval you specify, so all ads are current. The maximum ad duration is 3 months with a minimum ad duration of 1 day.

Ad pricing can be set by category, so you could allow free ads for "lost pets" and charge $10 for "realestate for sale" and charge $5 for a car for sale. This allows you flexibility in ad value.

The program supports up to 500 concurrent ads with 1 photo each. Photos are optional and you can even charge an additional fee to insert a photo in the ads. You can let users edit or delete the ads or just let them expire at the set interval automatically.

You can also charge a premium for featured ads. The featured ads will appear on the main page as well as appearing in bold print in their main listings and searches. You can choose to fill the slots with unpaid ads when there are no paid ads available. As soon as there are paid ads the system will stop displaying the standard ads.

The program also allows users to search all the ads so they do not have to scroll through 50 pages of 10 ads each as your classified fills up.

This classified will work well if you want to run a small classified for an organization such as a church or club or an all out business to business services classified. It will work as a personals classified, a jobs classified, an industry specific classified, a local community classified or pretty much a classified for anything you can think of.

The program can also be a huge income generator. If you run ads for 30 days and charge $10 for each ad, 500 ads would give you a monthly income of $5,000.00 or $60,000.00 a year. Even with only 100 ads at $2.00 each that is $200 a month less the $10 for the website hosting leaving $190.00 profit.

A program of this caliber has massive potential and appeal. The earning potential is huge and the possibilites are endless. But don't get over confident and don't lose sight of what your website already has in the search of the big advertising bucks.

It is always easier to launch your classified in a smaller or targeted market. If you run a car club, offer the listings to your members and others will surely add their own cars. Or target a local market or community that is reachable through local advertising. If you can get people to your classified, the programing will do the rest.

This is a fully automated system that can change the dynamic of your website and make it an interactive and informative marketplace for your industry.

The program should be used for what it is and you should not expect to be launching the next craigslist. It will serve as a great small classified and a powerful tool on your website. A website can be built around the program or the program can be an extra for the main site content. In either case, it will is powerful tool and is available to every website.

Our company runs many online classifieds and it is not an easy market to enter. However, it is very easy to enter a small niche market or capitalize on existing site traffic. Try to focus your efforts on something manageable and do not think too big out of the gate.

This program uses some of the same technology as our own classifieds with tens of thousands of ads. It is very powerful, but it's capacity must be limited to fit our very low hosting price. We want to make the highest level of technology available, but we want it to be affordable also. Nevertheless, it is one of the most powerful programs available.

It is also one of the most difficult programs to configure. If you have a background running classifieds, it will be easy. But for the rest of us, the learning curve may be a bit longer.
