Craigslist is a free online business classified posting site, that allows an internet user to post free of cost advertisements, jobs, real estate buying, selling or renting,  personal needs and wants, services, territories, posting resumes and setting up a discussion session. It was founded by ‘Craig Newmark’ in the year 1995 and has its headquarters located in San Francisco, USA. The owner began the service as an email provider to his friends but eventually joined the classified network and has now expanded to about 70 nations across the globe.
These sites are of utmost help to the people because of the fact that they get 20 billion page views per month. Moreover, they rank 37th in the world as far as websites are concerned and hold the 10th rank in entire USA. It is also considered as the leading classified service as it receives 80 million new classified advertisements every month. It also receives as much as 2 million new job postings per month for the unemployed personnel. With all the facts and figures of a good online business site, craigslist is emerging as a pioneer in the field of ad posting.
There are some advantages of using this free online ads sites which could be stated as below:

Speed of the affair:
The speed of the business and its transactions could be greatly amplified using craigslist because it tends to do away with the middlemen, (for example PayPal etc.) making funds directly enter your pocket. The transaction could be done in as less as a few minutes time. It also reduces the shipment time and overheads in a business if you prefer face to face interaction with the client. In this way it could save your time as well as money.

Grab in the local markets as well:

If you run a business single-handedly or in association with others, craigslist could make you reach a vast no. of buyers and sellers as it gets billions of views every month. What, if a potential buyer is looking for an ad like yours and you haven’t even cared posting it? Surely the opportunity goes out of your hand making your business suffer a great deal.

Elimination of chargeback:
Chargeback are the types of transactions that are disputed in nature. They arise due to a conflict arising out of credit cards in which the merchant is forced to pay back the money of the customers. Craigslist eliminates all such possibilities on their websites.

Far and wide access:
Craigslist allows displaying your ads all across the country while you post it locally. You may prefer to work within your office through emails and telephonic conversations, but this website would offer to display your business far and wide, where it could obtain millions of views from the potential customers looking for it.

Post with caution:

You cannot disagree to the fact that fraudulent people are present in each part of the globe and so is with the craigslist. Try to perform the business in emails and telephone calls. If you are to meet a stranger, accompany somebody to a public place. Perform the transactions with utmost caution and foresight. Better be safe than sorry.
With all these advantages of paving a better path to the future of your business craigslist is certainly a boon to online marketers.
