Classifieds & Advertising Platform

The original Laravel classifieds and advertising platform I built and maintained for roughly two years. It handled listings, payments, live chat and administration before the Go and React rebuild replaced it in production.

About Classifieds & Advertising Platform

I built and maintained this private client's classifieds and advertising platform for roughly two years. The Laravel application brought together public browsing, advertiser accounts, payments, moderation, support and day-to-day administration.

Visitors browsed by country, region, city and category. Advertisers created listings, uploaded media, managed publication, bought credits and paid for additional visibility. Invoices, transaction histories, notifications and support tickets were part of the same application.

The stack used Laravel and PHP, Livewire, Filament, MySQL, Redis and Meilisearch. Integrations included BTCPay Server and DeBounce; realtime chat used Laravel Reverb and Echo. Background jobs handled media, indexing, invoice checks and scheduled maintenance. Geographic routing required consistent canonical URLs, redirects, pagination and sitemaps.

After a three-plus-month rebuild, the Go replacement is now in production with 175k+ live ads, Go-rendered public pages and three React dashboards. This page documents the original implementation. The Go platform page covers the current system.
