Cards In The Window Classified Advertising
CardsInTheWindow.com
Cards in the Window takes the concept of traditional local shop window advertising onto the web. People offering local services or selling items often pop a card in their local corner shop window, and find that the response is often surprisingly good.
CardsInTheWindow.com does a great job of transferring that classified advertising concept onto the web. The interface is cleverly designed and brings a smile to your face when you see the familiar shop window with cards in it, advertising local services and items for sale.
The cards are in fact category areas to begin with, leading you into topic areas with the individual cards beneath them, which makes it very easy to drill down and find what you're looking for. Each card has a full page with picture and description, and contact details.
At the moment, Cards in the Window covers a selection of 16 regions in the North London area, from Kingston through Richmond to Hammersmith. They are hoping to expand soon. With such a good concept we are sure that they will.
The classified ads online concept has been done before many times, but we like the twist of wrapping it in a familiar shop window format. This makes the adverts easy and intuitive to navigate through, and it is easy to jump between sections. The shop front also carries personal ads, local events and job adverts.
Usually a card in a local shop window would cost around 50 pence per week, but the best thing about this website is you can place your card for free! It will also get a wider exposure than just the local shop customers, so register for free and give it a go.
A lovely concept, and well executed, the Cards in the Window site is sure to be expanding to your area soon. For good measure there is also a forum called chit chat, which you can use to natter about local events, share your recommendations and even advertise lost and found items.
