Congrats from me as well. Although I am not a fan of VCs, I admit that sometimes they are a must. I’ll see how well we will be able to compete with OLX and the other 3-4 big players with our newly launched global / local classified site http://www.kugli.com and very little private funding but with 8 years of Internet background. Good luck to everyone!

We are monetizing through Google AdSense. VCs want both revenue and traffic growth…

congrats fabrice,

Are you monetizing right now through the google Adsense? Quick question, in order to raise a second round, are VCs looking more at growth in revenue or growth in users (revenue will come later) in the current market ?

Fabrice,

Well done on the funding and execution. You’ve picked a sector which deceptively looks very easy, but is actually very difficult for many subtle reasons.

Get in touch sometime if you’re ever in Barcelona.
