Today, Craigslist is one of the most well known of all online urban communities
on the web. It allows people to place free classified adverts relating to various
subjects, as well as having forums where people can discuss various topics.
Craigslist was founded by Craig Newmark from the San Francisco Bay Area in
1995. Then it became incorporated in 1999. Since its incorporation as of
November 2006, there were over 450 cities where a Craigslist has been
established.
The business now operates with a team of 24 people, and the only way they
make any revenue today is through the job adverts paid for in selected cities
around the States. Ads placed by companies in the San Francisco Bay Area
cost $75, while those placed by companies or businesses in New York, Los
