Here are my top twenty classified ads websites.
Craigslist dominates the classifieds space on the Internet and forecasted to make an estimated $80 million this year. A few years ago, they were making a lot less, but I guess they decided there was just too much money being left on the table. eBay owns a 25% stake in craigslist.
Ebay-owned Kijiji is much larger than I expected.
