Hi,
My client needs a social networking site that can publish advertisement all over the world. The site must be a dedicated one instead of a commercialized. I was trying to search the same. Some one recommend me to go on Craigslist. I had never heard about this site. What is this about. Is it a social networking site. And how can it help me in the donation process. Is this a chargeable or free. If it is a paid service then what are the charges and services provided by it. Thanks in advance.
