The other day I was asked what was the hardest part about starting freeadlists.com. Most people would think technical implementation as being the most difficult. Not hardly. Well, it was — starting it. It was very difficult to gain traction. Frankly speaking, people do not trust new websites in general for obvious and varied reasons. On the surface, classified ads seem like an easy business model to work – people post ads, people view ads. But as most small business owners already know, it’s not that easy with any small business. Anyone that tells you starting a small business is easy, you should run or get a shovel—it’s BS. But after 3 years, we are definitely gaining traction. More and more people trust our website, which was definitely not an overnight event. Our bounce rate is now one of the lowest in the classified ads industry.  I hope the site’s momentum continues and we will continue to improve its usability for our buyers and sellers.

Thank you for making freeadlists.com a success.
