Job board checklist
1. Starting a job board today can be done in a matter of days through hosted job
board solution providers. This document is a checklist for everything you’ll need
for launch.
Job Board Software
Each of the providers are my two recommended solutions for a hosted software
vendor that won’t break your bank. Monthly costs range from $200-$400 per month
● Jobboard.io
● SmartJobBoard
Things You’ll Need to Plug-in
● Stripe.com for ecommerce (cost free)
● Google Analytics + Search Console accounts (free)
● Mailchimp for email collection (free for first 2,000 subscribers)
● ZipRecruiter affiliate account (for backfill) (free)
● Logo ($)
● Social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin and Instagram
Internet Marketing Skills
2. The only cost to start on online job site is just the cost of the job board software
vendor. Of course you will need to advertise the site to help build traffic. That also
includes content marketing. Both vendors offer the ability to have a blog and create
pages on your site so you have the ability to leverage content marketing skills for
traffic.
Google for Jobs will help to drive some free traffic but you will need to submit your
sitemap to the Google Search Console. Learn more.
What to Expect
The first year of your job board is the most critical for success. Focus on building an
audience and less about revenue. Aim to have 7,000-10,000 monthly visitors to your
site as a general rule by the end of year 1. Revenue will greatly depend on your niche
and marketing efforts.
