About DBA
Back in the early 1980s, someone had the bright idea of publishing a paper with nothing but classified ads. It was called Den Blå Avis, and Denmark loved it. Fast-forward to 1995, when the Internet was just beginning to take off. Den Blå Avis boldly launched a classifieds site (dba.dk) that soon became wildly popular.
In 2008, we joined eBay. Today, DBA is by far the number one online classifieds site in Denmark. Our simple format makes it incredibly easy to buy or sell just about anything online, or on your smartphone.
DBA is a fast growing business, and is one of the largest websites in Denmark. In October 2010, FDIM reported that DBA had more PageViews than any other Danish website!
