Online Classifieds Take Newsprint Down
According to the findings of an April 2009 survey by the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project, the number of online adults who have used online classified ads has more than doubled in the past four years. Almost half of internet users say they have ever used online classified sites, compared with 22% of online adults who had done so in 2005. And, on any given day about a tenth of internet users (9%) visit online classified sites, up from 4% in 2005.
