@jobboardsearch.com reached $75,000 💵 in revenue

a lil simple "boring" directory of job boards with low expenses

it's not huge, but averages close to $2K/mo (You can make a living with this in many places in the world)

the first version was built in just 5 hours...

THANKS SO MUCH to every single one who supported in any way 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

...I added the sponsored slots, tweeted with a payment link...

...literally minutes later, I had the first sponsor!

It got known in the industry and among job seekers, it gets mentioned in all social networks by huge accounts and had close to 2M page views

...StackOverflow Jobs alternatives when it shut down, so I put an ugly list of 12/15 job boards online for free

I didn't even think about monetising!

but then Pieter Levels sent me a DM saying something like:

"Start charging for job boards to submit (Dumb ass)"...

the teck stack is just: PHP + raw CSS + Vanilla JavaScript (some jQuery)

It makes money with:
- Featured listings
- Sponsorships
- Ad slots
- Link building services
- PPC + Affilates (This is low)

I didn't plan, I just saw people on Twitter asking for...

Sorry mate, barely using this app now.

All my work is in English, so I prefer it over Spanish

FEAR is the biggest progress stopper

Not competition. Not tech. Not audience. No skill issue

Just fear
Fear of failing
Fear of charging
Fear of launching
Fear of looking stupid

Thinking of starting a job board?

Ignore fear and hit publish 💪

The cost of chasing your dream is real

but the regret of never trying?

that bill shows up every single day

Build that job board!

(Worst case? you'll learn a ton)

Just watched the YT video

"How This Job Board Beat LinkedIn & Indeed in Google Rankings"

In short:
Most job boards don't have a traffic problem, they have a DR / Authority problem

No backlinks = no trust = no rankings = no jobs seen

If you're running a job board, build links or stay invisible!

Found a great gpt-image-1 model playground on GitHub

It has:
> Generate and Edit features

It's so good to test the model!

Been studying what makes job boards succeed

Here are patterns I keep seeing:
> Clear niche
> Great UI/UX
> Good domain name
> Regular content updates
> High authority (DR matters)
> Patience (12 months minimum)
> Google Indexing API implementation
> Strong SEO strategy + smart taxonomy

The @jobboardsearch.com Marketplace has a potential buyer of a job board with an asking price of 2M

I don't know much about marketplaces so,

for the 1st time used the @OpenAI GPT "Deep Research" feature

it generated a PDF with all the business details

it's like cheat mode ON 🤯

Just improved how PropertyDescriptionAI .com generates ad images

Now it first uses AI to write the prompt, then feeds that into AI image generation

The results? Seriously impressive 🤯🤯🤯

Here are a few examples 👇🏼

To generate the animations I'm using my own product propertydescriptionai.com

Why?

Because I also own the short term rentals biz VillasMediterranean and using the generated Flythrough Animations for Instagram

Property Description AI

Instantly turn property images into listings, captions, flythroughs, ads & more. Ideal for agents, managers & platforms via easy tools

Generating Flythrough Animations for places (Used to do it only for villas)

The results are mindblowing 🤯🤯🤯

💡 For short-term rentals, you also need to promote the place

The time and money this saves is incredible!

Has ChatGPT replaced Google for you?

(This morning my 15 y/o daughter told me she barely uses G now, she asks GPT directly instead)

Honestly I can't feel more grateful 🥹

A simple directory of job boards

Built solo and remote using a cheap laptop

No ads

Low expenses

Stripe notifications buzzing 💸💸💸

Try, try, try and don't quit too soon!

IT'S POSSIBLE 💪

Failure is success in progress

Yesterday a wannabe job board founder reached out

telling me that he purchased a domain but didn't know if they should build it

of course he should!

If you don't try you already lost

in the worst of the cases you will learn a lot!

It's not only SEO

It's wild how often my little job board directory gets mentioned lately

It’s a great reminder: build something worth sharing. It pays off

Job board owners: build something worth sharing by job seekers in your niche

Let them do the marketing for you!

At JobBoardSearch 🔎, there is a:

"Auto submit your link to 100+ directories for you 🚀" service

I just emailed the report to a job board client who got it last Thursday

Besides the 100 directories submitted to, there are another 72 extra

for you to grow it further 📈
