DALLAS (June 21) — Classifieds2GO.com, which creates technologies that merge print and online publications, has added NetworkIP’s ClassAdd Service to its powerful suite of Internet-based classified advertising applications.
ClassAdd lets advertisers include in their ads a disposable, local or toll-free number to ring on any phone they choose (wired or wireless). Taking seconds to setup, incoming calls can literally follow advertisers wherever they go (even internationally). The service, which includes voice mail, adds privacy for users and generates new revenue for Classifeds2GO.com newspapers, trade magazines, job boards, classified sites and portals.
“We are positioning ClassAdd as a safety solution in an environment where consumers are facing both personal security and identity theft challenges,” said Jay Dee Shores, President, Classifieds2GO.com. “Classifieds2GO.com newspapers can now market ClassAdd with every sale, generating important, new revenue while giving advertisers increased personal privacy and security.”
According to Pete Pattullo, NetworkIP CEO and president, “ClassAdd delivers the publishing industry’s highest level of privacy and convenience. The service drives new ad revenues for publishers who can brand ClassAdd as their own service, strengthening their local market presence, and sell the service as an integrated component of the advertising sales process.”
According to Robert Siciliano, a personal security and identity theft expert,
“ClassAdd Service is an essential tool for the 21st century consumer to keep your personal information private and your family safe. Consumers are risking their personal safety and placing themselves at extreme danger of identity theft or worse by revealing their home phone number in classified and online personal ads.”

(Dallas, TX, June 14) – Robert Siciliano, a leading privacy and safety expert, has endorsed MyClassAdd (www.MyClassAdd.com), a safe, secure and disposable toll-free number for classified and online advertising.
Developed by Dallas-based NetworkIP, a leader in stored value telecommunications solutions, MyClassAdd lets classified, display and personals advertisers feature a toll-free phone number in their ads, instead of using a home, business or private number. Available to private sellers and business advertisers alike, MyClassAdd never reveals the destination phone number to the caller, protecting the privacy and identity of the seller.
NetworkIP is offering a free 30-minute trial period at www.MyClassAdd.com in order demonstrate its effectiveness for individuals who want to advertise safely.
“The last thing any advertiser should do is to publish a personal or home phone number in a classified or online personal ad,” said Robert Siciliano, a nationally televised and quoted authority on privacy and identity theft. “MyClassAdd is the number one way to advertise safely.”
MyClassAdd, a new service, gives any business or private seller an inexpensive toll-free number to publish with a classified or personals ad. This number protects the privacy of the advertiser, who directs the ClassAdd number to ring on any ground-line or wireless number they choose.
“e-Bay advertisers, real estate agents, and individuals selling a vehicle or jewelry in a local paper can make themselves vulnerable publishing a home phone number. Once a con gets your home phone, they can easily reverse search it and get your home address. Do you really want a stranger showing up unannounced on your doorstep?” added Siciliano.
With the convenience of MyClassAdd.com, advertisers can purchase a ClassAdd number online and publish a toll-free number with their classified or personal ad, keep their personal and home phone numbers private, and stay safe and secure.
