COOSOU: a guide to free local listings
COOSOU is a local information platform for Chinese communities across the United States. Browse without an account; sign in to publish and contact others. Choose a city and the right category for your local or cross-city needs.
Businesses and service providers can post for free
Run a shop, offer a service or have a skill to share? Introduce your products, business and services for free in Services. Include your service area, prices or pricing method, opening hours or availability, and real photos. Use Jobs when hiring, Housing for property listings and Secondhand for used goods.
Housing
Rentals, wanted housing, sales and roommates
Include the area, property type, budget or price, move-in date, lease term, utilities and parking. Use accurate photos. You do not need to publish a complete private address.
Jobs
Hiring and job seeking
Employers should state the role, duties, location, hours, pay range and requirements. Job seekers should describe their skills, experience and availability. Make the role and area clear in the title.
Services
Shops, products, skills and local services
Explain what you offer, the areas you cover, pricing and appointment availability. Use real photos and examples, and make promises you can keep. Businesses and individual service providers can both post for free.
Secondhand
Selling, buying and passing on used goods
Include the brand, model, condition, price, known faults and pickup area, with photos of the actual item. Update the listing after a sale so others know it is no longer available.
Rides
Looking for a ride or passengers
State the starting area, destination, date and time, whether you are a driver or passenger, and arrangements for seats, luggage and costs. Share precise pickup addresses privately after confirming.
Help
Everyday questions and community assistance
Describe the problem, what you have already tried, the help you need and any deadline. Keep identity documents, account details and other sensitive personal information private.
Check these four things before posting
- Choose the right city and category. Browsing another city does not automatically change your home city.
- Use a specific title and include prices, timing and conditions.
- Use accurate photos and descriptions. Avoid duplicate posts and false promises.
- Enter phone numbers and other contact details in the posting form, not in comments or images.
