Formerly know as Kijiji, Quickr is an India-based portal which allows people to post free classified ads under a number of categories. Currently available in the cities of Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata, Mumbain, Mysore, and Pune, Quickr has plans to scale throughout other Indian cities in the near future. Quikr serves as a portal where community members can go to buy, sell, offer services, or even to help one another. The site is backed by none other than eBay making this a potentially big player in the Indian online classified ads space.

“Quikr was launched because we saw a need for a destination where the local community could come together, meet, trade and help each other. Community members within a city can come here to find an apartment to live in, sell their old car, or music system, promote their small business, find a life partner, join a salsa class, find people who share their interests, get an audience for a local event, trade any item that they might want or have to offer and make new friends while doing all of the above.”

The folks at Quickr seem to be doing a lot of things right including listening to current users in order to improve the overall service. This should become a popular portal in India that could perhaps expand to the rest of the world at some point as well.

When will they be bringing new cities on board? Will the change in name confuse some current users?
