LocalLink: a multilingual classifieds platform across four regions
Role: product design, development and ongoing maintenance of LocalLink Classifieds.
Local listings need a specific context: a home in the right town, a nearby service and useful information in a familiar language. LocalLink brings these needs together through a shared platform serving separate regional websites.
Four regions on a shared foundation
The network covers Bali, Sri Lanka, Mauritius and Vietnam. Each website has its own locations, listings and editorial material. Shared platform logic supports search, categories, language versions and administration without rebuilding a separate product for every country.
Visitors choose a category and location, open a listing or publish their own. The platform distinguishes offers, requests, promotions, events and places. Guides and articles add practical regional context to the catalogue.
Content updates with a verifiable result
An API supports editorial workflows. An agent finds the correct record, prepares text and media, saves an agreed change and reads the record back. Access and permitted operations belong to the specific website; sending a request alone does not establish that an update was saved.
My work covers platform logic, interfaces, localization and maintenance. This case presents the operating regional websites and the implemented content workflow. Future product ideas are outside the delivered scope described here.
