Gumtree claims to be the ‘UK’s No. 1 in classifieds – jobs, property, cars and more’ on its website. This surprised me due to Loot‘s dominance in London, but as Loot only operates in a few cities in the UK, including Manchester, Liverpool and London, I can see why Gumtree may be able to make such a claim.
Both companies offer free listings for most categories, but Loot also places your add in there printed newspaper distributed through major UK cities. However, Loot does have a one-off placement policy so if you want to advertise your stuff until it’s sold you’ll have to pay to upgrade for this service.
We’d like to hear from you about which classified site you prefer.
