Johnston County Classifieds

Just like other aspects of life, rural America gets left out when it comes to technology. I mean really, how long did it take to get the interwebs way out here? I can’t use my 3G iPhone in Benson and Charter Cable has no real competition here on the ground. Even when you’re looking to post an online classifieds ad it’s all geared towards metropolitan areas. Here’s the thing – if I want to sell my 3G iPhone because I can’t utilize their 3G network way down here, I have to post it on Craigslist and keep my fingers crossed that they will either drive to Benson to get it or hope they happen to live near me. That’s pretty inconvenient to say the least, which is why I started my own version of online classifieds – based by county. That’s right, it’s not centered around cities! Being that Johnston County always gets snubbed I decided it would be the best starting point (and well I do live there too) so last week I launched Johnston COUNTYfieds. While the website is still very much in its infancy it provides people a FREE place to promote their services, look for jobs, post community activities or sell their junk! If you haven’t already, become a friend on Facebook and help spread the word. Within the next month or so I will start rolling out Harnett and Wayne Counties. Start posting those ads!!
