Online classifieds make for hot searches these days. Sites like Craigslist have made it a very popular form of buying and selling items online. OLX has become one of the top players in the realm of online classifieds in the past few months and it is not difficult to see just why. The site has its presence in nearly 90 countries around the world and this makes it one of the largest classifieds sites on the web today.

With people from various regions and languages putting up items on sale, it has become quite a hub for buyers online. With the usage of mobile web growing on a day to day basis, there is more stress for site developers to ensure that their site is listed on popular classifieds. OLX has forayed into this category and has made a site that can be easily accessed through the mobile web.

BlackBerry loaded with communication goodies like GPRS, EDGE and 3G, makes an ideal phone for surfing sites with a lot of multimedia content at the touch of a button. However, the penetration of fully loaded phones in India makes the number of mobile browsers almost negligible. With this information in mind, OLX has designed their mobile web portal, http://m.olx.in/ that it is low on graphic content and thus can save on accessing costs for the user. OLX, with its widespread technical expertise has devised a very clever low bandwidth website that can be easily accessed from not only high end BlackBerry’s but also through phones with low specs and basic browsing capabilities. With this barrier overcome, OLX has so much to offer the user with its wide ranging classifieds that house everything from computer hardware to jobs and services.

The ability of OLX to streamline searches makes it a worthwhile visit to users and is guaranteed to rake in buyers. The site already has over 400 Mn page views in a month and with mobile compatibility it should definitely lure in a fair share of BlackBerry and other mobile users who are very likely to find what they are looking for.

OLX has become a newer and fresher version of craigslist and this is never a bad thing. A mobile version site that promises fast accessing also does loads to boost its global reach.
