A three-person nonprofit startup, Classify Advertising, has issued an open invitation to everyone around the world to “transform Craigslist posts from boring, ineffective ads into dynamic cash cows.”

It counts more than 80 million listings each month across 700-plus local sites worldwide. The quality of postings has improved recently, with bigger pictures and greater interactivity, but problems persist with how users display items and craft copy.
