Busy, line, line Line 2, line Line 10, most of Beijing daily crowded subway to work, life is crowded and busy, in the road stops only the bus and subway platform. This is perhaps what I want to say classification information website-The origin of the platform Network name.

Platform network should be the originator of the Chinese classification information field, this is a Web site by word of mouth development, its peak when the development rate of only a few web sites can be comparable. Platform network has also become a synonym for classified information, of course, also cultivated the domestic users of the concept of classified information and awareness of the site, and then appeared in the market, guests, 58, Word-of-mouth, such as a large pile of classified information sites, but later did not achieve a platform network of Word-of-mouth level and height.

Craigslist----A weird word that can't be ignored.

This is the name of America's Toughest classified information Web site, a word that is hard to remember for Chinese netizens, and Craigslist comes from its founder's name, Craig Newmark, which is one of the most popular classified information sites in the United States.

Craigslist looks like the web designer's level is problematic, but this simple page design is an important factor in its success. Craigslist, as a gathering place for the classification of life, has some properties of search engines, so the Google Maxim, "Let the user leave the page in the shortest time", has also made Craigslist the life-information site (of course, some people call it vertical search).

Platform Network--the adherence of Craigslist in China

For those in the industry who are familiar with the American Internet, the Platform Network (zhantai.com) knows that the platform is inspired by Craigslist, and the name "Platform Zhantai" is strange, but it is still possible to figure out the meaning of the name. I do not know what the platform network is operating, until now the site has no advertising, platform network operators mysterious and stubborn. This is a paranoid world of survival, the platform network for their own philosophy to stick to the paranoid and perverted, perhaps they want to cultivate Google's profit model.

If the classified information is a gold mine, then Craigslist may become a company like Google, and the platform network is ambitious to stick to the harsh user experience and ease of access. The user's value and the user's habit training need a long time period, when the training stage is past, this kind of user experience approval will be the website own important competition strength and the barrier. There is an old saying in China called "Static water Depth Flow", which is also applicable to the operation of the website. Stick to, is also a kind of competition, static also move.

Classified information not far from the land of Canaan.

In the platform network soon after, there are many imitation platform network site, as well as similar classification information site, in the venture capital after the hurricane, now a decent domestic classified information site few. Capital is not about the pattern and the future, China's rich are still many, but not just a nouveau riche can play the internet, including Lenovo, many big companies have suffered from the Internet investment. Google was not as rich as Yahoo, and had the opportunity to favor prepared people, not just the capital.

Classified information not far from the land of Canaan, the Remnant is king, and the user is God. When a site to user-centric services, until users can not live without your site, your site will naturally have a profit model, user loyalty is the most difficult to defeat your opponents of the most solid fortress. Platform network can be described as Sanzang, encountered several competitors of illegal malicious destruction, once zhantai.com many areas of domestic inaccessible, and finally forced to enable zhantai.com and zhan-tai.com two domain names. There is also a competitor forged a fake platform network, and use the search engine cheat row to Google, Baidu and other search results of the forefront, using the next three indiscriminate means to confuse and mislead the platform network users. However, only concerned about these devious competitors themselves do very poor, did not focus on upgrading their services and user experience, all put their minds on the wrong, "benevolent invincible" they can not understand.

China's Classification Information field competition has passed in the first round, the collapse of a large number of the remaining batch of some are about to fall, who will laugh to the end? It may be the platform network, or other classified information sites, may not be, because there are general search engine in the eyeing. But I believe that the final winner must be a trustworthy, user-orientated website.
