The History

It started as a classified ads list only, and later a dedicated forum was added to the services of the website, and then a bazaar schema was added.

After its success, an establishment ITDar was established to hold the official status of Mstaml.com website.

Features

[edit]

It was one of the first dynamic sites which used DHTML as the main feature providing easiness and speed to browse the posted ads on slow dial-up lines.

And its idea was very successful in Saudi Arabia, because it was a mix of a forum and a classified ads electronic list. Every ad can be made as a forum to be discussed freely by other members so people can get benefits from the experience of the others before dealing with the advertiser regarding his ad.

Recently, non-members can post up to ten ads by providing only their mobile number. And only one of those ads will be active at any time.
