FAQ

Do I need multi-platform coverage?
Only if you actually buy on Craigslist, OfferUp, or eBay. Facebook-only operators often overpay for platforms they never open.
Which alternative is cheapest?
Pricing shifts; compare live vendor pages. Crawlbench offers a free tier and Day Pass for Facebook-only monitoring.
