Classified advertising is a form of advertising that is usually textually based, often seen in newspapers, and can consist of as little as the type of item or product being offered for sale. It can also have a telephone number to call for more or further information related to the product, a name to contact, an address to contact or visit, and detailed description of the product or products. There are generally no pictures or other graphics within the advertisement, even though sometimes a logo may be used.
Internet or online classified advertising or ads do not typically use per-line pricing model, so they tend to be longer than the printed classified ads in online newspapers (ePaper) and other periodicals such as online magazines (eMagazines). Online classified ads are also more readily searchable unlike the offline or printed classified ads. And tend to be local classifieds with a great sense of urgency because of their daily structure. Some companies such as Pressmart provides electronic classifieds (e-classifieds) solutions to publishers, television stations, media companies, city guides, online communities, career listings, auto dealers, real estate marketplaces, and other leading web sites.
The main point is that no matter how powerful and important your online product is no body will know about it if there isn’t any advertisement to show that the product really exists on the internet. This is exactly where classified advertising comes in. There are many products in the same niche as your products. That is, you have many competitors fighting for the same space with you and the earlier you find out that such competitions exists the better for you. Every business, particularly online business is at the mercy of advertising. The more you advertise the more you generate traffic. And your classified ads must be better than your opponents’ if you really want to be above them in terms of getting more of the targeted customers into your web sites.
The classified advertisements should be able to describe what exactly the product is intended to do or the problem it tends to solve.

The technology is united in recent years to communication such as the digitization of television or radio. Now it is the turn of the paper, which in few years will undergo a major transformation of the formal history of the press, the so-called electronic paper (ePaper) or digital. This breakthrough will have a direct, not only in newspapers but also in all content captured on paper, such as newspapers and other print media.
The first question we must ask is because the paper applied to the press has not yet disappeared because the digital editions have many characteristics that make them more useful than the traditional system. But before getting to be a “paperless”, we should establish a digital communications network, “easy” to maintain. But we must not underestimate the rapidity of technological change and its potential for change. These new technologies are transforming our society.
One of the biggest advantages is the role of cultural familiarity; the use of paper is integrated with our culture. The cultural inertia ensures the existence of the paper at least for the next two decades. But it has its advantages that make it necessary for society. The role is desirable, is transportable and storable. The role also is recycled, as well as available and affordable, flexible and incredibly versatile. It’s as well as several publishers create advances in publishing technologies to produce editions of newspapers, magazines and journals. One of the main disadvantages of paper with regard to the digital medium is its physical nature. The distribution of printed paper requires physical delivery of the product and that’s an extra cost.
Now, for the publishers, it’s time to think about the new technology mediums in order to attract the readers to increase the readership rate.
