Is Craigslist On Its Last Legs? Ebay Launched A Competitor.

[braver55b]

Have any of you used craigslist to generate traffic? I have and it works and now a new competitor looms on the horizon.

Kijiji.com (a mouthful meaning village in Swahili) its owned by ebay (by the way ebay currently holds a 25% stake in craigslist) and has been operating kijiji overseas and have launched the US site not too long ago.

Has anyone used this new site with any real degree of success?

I doubt they would ever catch up to craigslist 9 in alexa (US) 46 worldwide.

Ebay is a big company and it might take a while, but on second thought its not outside the realm of possibility for

Ebay's site to become a major player given that CL is not monetizing their site for all its worth and you know that Ebay is aggressive in their expansion plans into various ventures.
