If you have just moved to a new city or city and do not know how to settle down or even find the basic amenities that you need on a daily basis, then you only need to enter Craigslist! Many people will ask for a difference, instead, instead of the main search engine Google. Well, I agree, Google is the best thing that has happened to the Internet.
What is it
But the thing with Google is that you need to know what you are looking for. But what about those times when you can’t point out exactly what you are looking for? We all go through these phases, right? Not knowing exactly what we want. So what kind of help is Google? That's where sites like Craigslist appear.
Craiglist was founded by Craig Newmark in 1995. Basically, he designed Craigslist to serve those who lived in the San Francisco Bay area, but he knew very little that Craigslist was what it is today — it’s a site of gigantic proportions! In just five years, Craigsland spread its wings to cover four cities, and six years later it grew phenomenally to cover about four hundred and fifty cities around the world. Craigslist continues to grow today and is your only source of information - almost throughout - about a city or town.
Using Craigslist
Craigslist is an amazing resource, but you need to know something about how to use it in order to take full advantage of it. First, it would be better if you used Craigslist using a separate email account. It gives you more security and, more importantly, great peace of mind!
You can sell products on Craigslist - in fact, this is one of the best platforms that do it online, but do not accept personal checks for your transactions, and do not agree to a money order or even a cashier check. In fact, Craigslist is also a buyer's area, especially if you have something specific. All you have to do is subscribe to the RSS feed. What should you do for this:
• Go to Craigslist in your city and select the category of the product you are looking for, “Tableware”.
• Then enter information about what you are looking for, how much you will pay, etc.
• Then press Enter and scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will find the orange button with the letters RSS on it, just click on it.
• Then you will get a code page in your browser, what you need to do is copy the paste of this URL into the reader.
• It's as simple as it is now, every time something picks up your criteria on Craigslist, you will be informed!
Many people have managed to use this amazingly versatile site. No matter where you are in the world, Craigslist can definitely help you!
