Classifieds refer to online advertising posts that list products and services in categories. Advertising spending on Classifieds includes the fees advertisers pay to display an online ad and to list it in a specific category. The fee has to be paid by the advertiser regardless of the outcome of the ad and does not depend on factors such as the ad's position, size, or display duration.

Structure:
Advertising spending on Classifieds is separated into four categories: Jobs, Motor, Real Estate, and General.

• Jobs covers ads by businesses offering permanent employment (e.g., Indeed, Monster)
• Motor covers ads by companies or consumers offering vehicles for purchase (e.g., Cars.com)
• Real Estate covers ads by companies or consumers offering real estate for rent or purchase (e.g., Roofstock)
• General covers all forms of ads that are not included in the other categories, including consumers (private individuals) looking for other private individuals to complete small-scale, non-permanent jobs (such as contractor services) for them (e.g., TaskRabbit)
