Nextdoor.com is a social networking service designed specifically for neighborhoods, primarily operating in the United States but also available in other countries. The platform enables users to connect with their neighbors, share local news, recommend services, and buy or give away items, functioning like a digital bulletin board for communities. It caters to a diverse audience, including individual users seeking neighborhood connections, local businesses aiming to advertise their services, and public agencies sharing important information. Nextdoor distinguishes itself from other social networking sites by focusing on local interactions rather than global connections. The company generates revenue mainly through advertising, allowing local businesses to reach targeted audiences, and offers a premium subscription service for users who want additional features.
