Sites free ads kill newspapers
The popularity of sites with free ads (the most famous of them is Craiglist with a monthly audience of 42.2 million people) in America has more than doubled in the last four years. Currently, 49% of American Internet users visit websites with private ads (for comparison, in 2005 there were 22%), and every tenth person does it daily.
At the same time, paper newspaper revenues from advertisements began to fall at an alarming rate, according to statistics from the Pew Research Center . This is not surprising, because it is difficult to compete with free service. The graph shows the income (in million dollars) for the last 28 years. Over the last three years they have fallen from $ 17.3 billion to $ 10 billion.
