eBay's
Kijiji US Debut Competes With...eBay
By David A. Utter
The only part of Craigslist that isn't
under Craig Newmark's ownership belongs
to eBay. That 25 percent was picked
up by eBay in 2004.
eBay opened Kijiji to the US market,
after having operated it internationally
since its founding in 2005. Ina Steiner
at Auction Bytes said Kijiji users should
expect to see something they won't see
on Craigslist, in the form of ads:
eBay has an advertising agreement
with Google internationally, but has
partnered with Yahoo in the US. So while
Kijiji Canada sponsored links are powered
by Google, it's likely any sponsored
links on Kijiji's US site would be powered
by Yahoo.
