Webdunia launches online classifieds in local languages
14 May, 2008
Indian language portal Webdunia.com has introduced a classified advertisement service in local languages. The new service allows users to post an advertisement and receive responses on the email, phone or by post.
According to the company, selected classifieds from Webdunia.com will be published in the Hindi daily Nai Dunia while a few select classified ads from Nai Dunia will be featured in Webdunia.
Pankaj Jain, COO, Webdunia.com, has said, “Webdunia continues to launch new initiatives to meet the emerging needs of netizens in the Indian languages. This is first of the several special services to be offered this quarter.”












Good move. Isn't webdunia the 2nd or 3rd player in language classifieds?
Although I’m slightly skeptical about the numbers… I still think this is a brilliant idea to reach the targeted netizens and an excellent move in the direction of localization. Going by Sukhwinder Singh Cassedy’s comments in a recent interview, even Google seems to be headed in the same direction. Wishing you guys luck!
