Integrating Job Feeds on Generic Domain Names

October 21st, 2009

Chicago JobsDevHub is a website development platform I have been experimenting with and which I had written about once previously. DevHub allow developers to drag and drop content sections onto a blank webpage in order to build their site piece by piece.

The jobs section of DevHub incorporates feeds from both Careerbuilder and SimplyHired. Currently, I have just one job listings site utilizing the DevHub feeds -> ChicagoJobs.biz.

ChicagoJobs.biz was monetized over the past year using PPC ads alone (at Parked.com). This was distinctly different from the current set-up in which job openings are now posted in different job categories and specific to the greater Chicago metro area. The test here is to see how traffic patterns increase as a result of bringing relevant content to the ChicagoJobs.biz site as opposed to simply displaying general jobs-related advertisements.

The economy has obviously been heavily impacted by terrible job losses. Consequently, online job search has become a frequent daily activity for jobseekers.

Various jobs domain name sales include: Job.us ($35,225), TheJob.com ($15,000), Job.mobi ($43,600), AnalystJobs.com ($3,650), MediaJobs.de ($4,486), GeneralJobs.com ($3,200), BrooklynJobs.com ($8,000), AerospaceJobs.co.uk ($4,900), MiniJobs.ch ($6,963), JobsinMaryland.com ($4,388), PsychologyJobs.com ($10,000), LegalJobs.co.uk ($39,392).
