What is a classified ad?

A classified ad is a form of advertising typically found in newspapers, online classified websites, and other mediums. They are short, concise advertisements that are usually grouped together based on category in order to make it easier for readers to find what they are looking for.

Classified ads are commonly used by individuals and businesses to buy or sell goods and services, advertise job openings, promote events, and more. The ads usually include a brief description of the item or service being offered, contact information, and sometimes a price.

Classified ads are a cost-effective way to reach a targeted audience and are often used by individuals looking to buy or sell items locally. They are also commonly used by smaller businesses and startups to advertise their products or services without the high cost of traditional advertising.
