Even Facebook is going public this week, and will undoubtedly comprising their success by increasing the volume of ads. Craigslist on the other hand has done an excellent job at preserving their brand and making sure the users needs are met. Big fan. I honestly appreciate the fact that craigslist hasn’t sold out….

However I'm not sure how they generate any income from it. As mentioned in the post, it could be a case of wait and see. That is, wait until someone comes along with an offer that can't be refused.

Filters adult content and has safe meeting locations submitted by the users. You should try http://www.listburn.com

I guess I wouldn't mind if they have advertisements, but I hope they're not as annoying as those little banners at the bottom of YouTube videos that get in the way. I think I shut myself off of ads anyway. Gee, now that you mention it, how does CL make money?

I do know that some areas of it are over run by scammers. My brother tried to buy a truck this spring. I bet we had 5 fakes for every 1 real vehicle for sale. He did eventually get an honest guy on there that he bought his Dodge from. But, you wouldn't believe the number of trucks he had to look into!

It looks so old, is so popular and they don't monetize it. If I owned the site I would charge to list ads in at least a few categories. AND give it a much needed facelift!

The whole operation has under 20 staff and it kept marketing, promotion and sponsorship to a minimum. I think it reflects the lack of an ego in the owner compared to the other social media bosses.
