    I have plan to start a free classified website. I did some research and found few platform to use for classified ads.The site for visitor to post their ads free. The idea is, to run this site for long term and integrate some monetize method like adsense. I know I have to do lot of things to grow traffic. I am ready to do and not in a hurry. My concern is to complete the planing part before start. So these are my questions.
    1. What is the best script between 'osclass' , open classified, Jom classified and finally '
    'wordpress'
    2. Which one has better perform with mobile access.
    3. Which is the best secured platform to run classified site.
    4. As a classified site, content will be grown fast therefore what kind of hosting is better.
    5. Can I hire some one to built complete new site without using script or platform like above mentioned.
    6. What are the other technical and general aspects should I consider.

    please give me your advice it is worth for me
    thank

    Just start with one and see how you get on.

    The free osclass is a good start.

    You have entered a massively competitive niche, how many grains of sand on a beach, thats about how many classified web sites there are. I do not want to rain on your parade, but you should be aware of the steep road ahead of you. I really wish you the best though, good luck !!

    Yes, Classified Market is heavily crowded and it is really hard to make most out of it. You have to heavily invested in Google Adwords to promote your classified sites.

    Dont use any open source. Just make your own scirpt. I have bad experience with this open script when the website hits, start creating problem.
    VPS hosting is good for starting
