The Friday Media Group Limited was born out of the Friday-Ad, one of the original classified papers in the UK. The Friday-Ad was launched in 1975 and established a strong presence over the next 25 years as a great local advertising paper. With the digital age taking off, so did the company, and a wide range of websites were launched or aquired. Today the Friday Media Group is one the leading online publishers of classified and niche-interest websites.
