/// After experiencing record growth with their website in the mid-90s, the Buy & Sell hired OpenRoad to re-architect and re-design the classified ad website to make it more scalable and powerful.

To ensure scalability, OpenRoad rewrote the application, following software development best practices. This included designing a distributed application architecture, implementing a high performance database, and optimizing the server through extensive load testing.

Over the past 6 years, the website has served over 5 billion ads to viewers across Canada, making it one of the most successful and profitable websites in British Columbia
