The Easy Job Boards Blog

We’re happy to announce that you can now run Google AdSense advertising on your Easy Job Board!

AdSense gives you a simple way to generate advertising revenue from your job board. It’s very simple to configure: just sign in to your job board, navigate to the “Advanced” settings panel in the management section and paste in the JavaScript code you got from Google. Save changes and your board will begin serving ads to your visitors right away!

You can monitor how your AdSense campaign is progressing via your Google AdSense account just as if it was on your own site.

We’re looking for feedback on how you want us to take this feature forward and would love to hear your wants and needs.

If you have tried Easy Job Boards yet, you can get your own job board here.

We’ve received some really good feedback from users of our job board software with ideas on features they’d like to see.

We’re committed to keeping the job boards as simple and easy-to-use as possible. As part of this, we are careful to only add features that provide enough value to a large proportion of our customers.

Coming soon to Easy Job Boards…

Job Categories

Some specialised job boards have only a few job listings at a time, so a simple list of jobs is enough. For others, it’s better to add categories for different roles or types of position.

We’re working on a simple categories feature so that jobs can be organised in to categories you define. For example, a board for accountancy jobs might have categories for each role, such as “Accountant”, “Auditor”, “Financial Controller”, etc. Categories could also represent geographical areas or specific skills.

Job Board Customisation

You can already customise the appearance of your job board by adding your logo, but we wanted to go further.

We’re working on a customisation feature where you can choose colours to use on your job board. These colours can then match your branding or colours used on the main website.

If you don’t need such fine-grained control, choose from a small selection of ready made themes.

These features should be released shortly. We’re also adding contract types (Permanent, Contract, Freelance, etc) and making ongoing improvements to the board management interface.

As more people have been trying out Easy Job Boards, we’ve had a few feature requests. The most requested feature so far has been to allow custom domains for job boards.

Job Board on a subdomain

When you create your own job board using the Easy Job Boards service, your site appears on its own subdomain, e.g. example.easyjobboards.com. For many job boards this is fine and is an easy way to get started. Your job board still has its own unique address you can link to or use in email, print ads, etc.

Custom Domain for your Job Board

Some job boards have a stronger brand and want to use their own domain name. For example, the “geekjobs” board is at geekjobs.easyjobboards.com but can also be accessed on its own domain geekjobs.im.

Although we have internal support for custom domains, at present customers need to contact support to request it. We plan to fix that soon by making it so you can specify the domain using the management interface and then make a change to the DNS record using your normal domain registrar or DNS hosting service.

With these changes, you’ll be able to put your job board on any domain you control. We’ll let you know when it’s ready to roll!

Easy Job Boards is the easy way to get your own job board.

A job board is a website which lists jobs.  The best job boards focus on a niche, a particular type of job or a specific place.  People who are interested don’t need to sift through lots of irrelevant jobs and employers know when they advertise there the right people will see the job.

Creating your own job board is easy with Easy Job Boards.  Each job board has its own website with an admin interface where you can add job listings.  Once it’s live, anyone can read the job listings and contact the employer if they are interested.

Job boards are useful for different groups:

• Employers: list your own jobs online
• Recruiters: advertise jobs online and make contact with new candidates
• Clubs and organisations: help your members by bringing together candidates and employers
• Entrepreneurs: sell job listings on a well-targeted job board

Easy Job Boards provides high quality job boards with minimal effort.  There’s nothing to install, you just need a modern web browser.  Your job board is hosted for a monthly subscription.

Easy Job Boards is the first app from Red Robot Studios Ltd, a web-based software provider based in the UK.

If you’re interested in having your own job board for yourself or your company, you can take advantage of our 14-day free trial at EasyJobBoards.com.
