You. Whats is Siftin?
Me. Siftin.com =
Local Classified ads search.
You. What kinda classifide ads can I search using
Siftin's classifieds search
service?
Me. Some of the Classifieds
categories currently suported at Siftin.com are:
Household
Items search (including
Electronics, used Furniture)
Used Cars search
Job search
Pets search
Event
Tickets search
Deals/Coupons search
You. There are so many different places to
post classifieds ad on
Internet, How do you make sure you have
seen everywhere?
Me. We don't (infact, if anyone claims they do, they
should become a politician). Our motto is "SEARCH
BESTTM
sources, find best results". We only sift Top 10-15 sources for most
categories (except Vehicles).
We found that 99+% of the data comes from only few
top resources.
You. How is Siftin different?
Me.
- Selection: Siftin will let you select sites, where you would like
to search classifieds.
- Real time results: Siftin will fetch live results, unlike
Crawling/hogging content providers and providing stale data to
consumers. A parallel example will be Air ticket deal finding site like
kayak.com
- Greener: We don't crawl content providers and we fetch data from
client side, that means your computer's unused processing power is used
to get results.
- Great features: Preview, Save, Tell a friend, Print, and Research
(Jobs and Autos)
You. Why is Siftin.com sometimes so slow?
Me.
- Resources: We are a self-funded company, and actively looking for
external funding, which will get us better machines, network, etc
- Live results: Fetching live results is a risky business, as
sometime one selected site night be terribly slow/down.
