Craigslist Tops India Business Classifieds

So where does one go in India to advertise their services or products for sale?

I’m not surprised by our winner but I am stunned by how close Rediff Classifieds came to Craigslist India in terms of page view Rank. According to Alexa, Craigslist India is about 46th most popular while Rediff Classifieds finishes a respectable 105; not bad for a site that doesn’t focus on classified advertising.

I suspect Craigslist India receives a lot of page views due to the large amount of people in the US that are searching for India talent. Most non-Indians in the US don’t know about the other sites while Craigslist is popular within the US. If you are looking to promote your services or products to the US, Craigslist is an excellent (and free) site to start.

Local news, business supplies for sale, real estate and web design are probably better off advertising somewhere else since they contribute less than a whisper to the overall site traffic.
