Which is more valuable? with the s or without the s?

ex. adclassified.com or adclassifieds.com? or internetclassified.com or internetclassifieds.com? etc...

I personally think classified is better than classifieds.

plural version

"Classifieds" (plural)!
The singular is, like, "top-secret", or something ... and probably not where you want to go with your development (internet/ads) plans, as I understood them.
Good Luck.

Ok, lets not play stupid here.....

The classified ads are always referred to as the "classifieds"...

Plural is generally better when you are talking about more than one item.

Classifieds = lots of listings. Classified = only one listing, not worth seeing.

Ditto for most other things. BuyCars.com would be better than BuyCar.com.

Of course if you are using it as an adjective than it should be singular. ClassifiedAds.com is better than ClassifiedsAds.com.
