PHP Classifieds Software — Local Listings, Deals & Services
A classifieds site lives or dies on posting speed, trust, and discovery. The projects in this section give you a working engine from day one: listing creation with custom fields, photo galleries and maps; user accounts and dashboards; moderation queues and abuse reports; and SEO-friendly category pages that scale. Start with a clean theme, set your locations and currencies, and you’re already close to launch.
- Listings
- Categories and subcategories with per-category fields (price, condition, make/model, bedrooms, services). Expiry dates, renewals, bumps and featured slots keep content fresh. Image galleries and contact options are built in; many scripts add WhatsApp/phone reveal and safe reply forms.
- Search & discovery
- Location search by city/region with distance filters, map results and saved searches. Sort by newest, price or distance; expose breadcrumbs and clean slugs so crawlers understand your taxonomy. Pair with site search for advanced filters and highlights.
- Accounts & trust
- Registration, profiles, verification steps and reputation signals (badges, response rate). Rate limiting and reCAPTCHA dampen spam; audit logs help moderators. Secure sign-in is easy to extend via Login & Authentication.
- Monetization
- Paid plans (per-listing or subscriptions), “featured/top” placement, urgent tags, bumps, escrow or premium categories. Connect gateways through Payments & Billing; issue invoices automatically and handle refunds with webhooks.
- Operations
- Bulk import via CSV, moderation and takedown flows, fraud keywords, blocked IP/UA lists, and exports for accounting. File handling integrates well with Uploader & File Management.
- Internationalization
- Multiple languages, currency formats and RTL styling are common. Sitemaps and structured URLs improve crawl depth; pair with Analytics & Reporting to track categories, searches and conversion events.
Buyer notes: match the script to your vertical (general classifieds, jobs, autos, property, services); confirm PHP 8 support and database requirements; check how custom fields and categories are managed; review moderation tools (flags, queue, notes); validate map provider setup; and make sure emails (verification, renewals, receipts) are templated and translatable.
Launch flow (condensed): install on staging → create taxonomy and locations → define plans/fees and payment gateways → customize branding, meta and slugs → import a small seed of quality listings → rehearse the full flow on mobile (post, search, contact, renew) → switch DNS and watch early searches, CTR and replies.
