The Problem
• People post ads all over the place
• Impossible to find ads in a single place
• Can’t have categories via web interface

You always have to fill tons sign-up and submit forms to
publish ads to various websites
The Solution
Start a classified ads website
How it works?
Send your twit to us
The website grabs it
And the account RTs it

service just by sending a twit

Internet users

blogging websites
