How this status checker works
Who's Down Today monitors Craigslist independently of the company that runs it. We send reachability checks from our primary location every minute and record response time, HTTP errors, and timeouts.
Craigslist does not publish a verified public incident feed. We do not copy third-party outage lists. Repeated independent check failures and elevated user reports on this site can still be recorded as possible issues. A failed check from one location can be regional, caused by bot protection, or a transient network issue. We prefer "status uncertain" over a false major outage.
This page can show when an issue started, how long it lasted, and the type of error observed. It cannot see internal systems, so it does not claim a private root cause unless the provider publishes one. Read the full methodology.
Frequently asked questions
Is Craigslist down right now?
- No. No, Craigslist is not down. Who's Down Today shows Craigslist as operational based on the latest official signals and independent checks. If you still cannot reach craigslist.org, the issue may be local to your connection, DNS, VPN, browser, or device.
Is Craigslist down for everyone or just me?
- Who's Down Today currently shows Craigslist as operational from our monitoring location, which means craigslist.org is responding normally to our checks. If you are still having trouble, try another browser, device, or network, and check DNS or VPN settings.
What should I do if craigslist.org is up but I still cannot access it?
- Try opening craigslist.org from another browser, device, or network (for example a mobile hotspot). You can also disable a VPN, flush local DNS, restart your router, or check whether your internet provider is having issues. If the site works elsewhere, the problem is likely local rather than a confirmed Craigslist outage.
How does Who's Down Today check if Craigslist is down?
- We combine independent HTTP reachability checks with public status information where it exists, plus anonymous user reports submitted on this site. Craigslist does not publish a verified public incident feed. Repeated independent check failures and elevated user reports on this site can still be recorded as possible issues. We do not copy outage lists from other trackers. A single failed probe is treated as a possible transient or regional failure, not an automatic global outage. Bot protection, geo restrictions, and HTTP 403 responses are not automatically classified as downtime.
What does a Craigslist outage mean?
- An outage on this page means recorded incidents or failed checks indicated that Craigslist was not responding normally. That does not always mean every user was affected. Some outages are regional, some affect only certain features, and some appear as errors or slow responses instead of a full failure.
Can this page tell me the root cause of a Craigslist outage?
- Not exactly. We can show when an issue started, how long it lasted, the public incident title, and symptoms such as timeouts or slow response times. We do not have access to Craigslist's internal systems, so we cannot identify a private root cause such as a failed deploy or database incident unless the provider publishes it.
How do I report an issue with Craigslist?
- Use the report form on this page if Craigslist looks down for you. Reports are anonymous, rate-limited, and used as supporting evidence alongside official sources and independent checks. For services without an official feed, a spike in reports on this site can surface possible issues even when the website still responds.
