Summary
AyosDito.ph was an online classified-ads website for Filipinos to buy and sell online, regardless of their location in the Philippines. It was owned and operated by 701Search Pte. Ltd., which is a joint venture between media giants Singapore Press Holdings and Schibsted.[2] Launched in March 2009,[3] AyosDito offered free posting of ads for items such as properties, cars, electronics, food, and even jobs. The phrase "Ayos Dito" is Tagalog for "Ok here". By 2013, it became the second largest online classified ads website in the Philippines.[2]
