If your blog is not as big as Darren Rowse’s , the making money online guru, and you can’t afford to include a job board on your blog yet just like the Problogger Job Board, you have another option. Use a job board service that will make you earn just by including a widget that will display relevant job openings on your blog such as JobCoin and Jobamatic.
JobCoin is a middleman service to employers and bloggers or publishers who would want to monetize their sites via paid job listing. All it takes is for a publisher to sign up and install the widget onto a blog or site to start making money when employers post a job listing. The payout is via PayPal and JobCoin gets the 30% of the job listing fee that the publisher has set. So, yes, the publisher gets 70% of payment, which is not so bad, right?
For those who already have taken a peek of JobCoin’s service, here are some major improvements to JobCoin that might interest you. According to the email update I received, they have facilitated further the installation of the job board widget with these two steps:
1) Visit this page to easily import some relevant jobs onto your job board. http://www.jobcoin.com/websites/import This ensures you always have relevant content for your visitors and provide value to them.
2) After completing Step 1, you will see the JobCoin widget you can easily customize and install into your site.
JobCoin’s Job Network will earn the publisher revenue even if companies are not posting jobs directly to your job board. Jobs will be posted on your job board that your visitors will find interesting, and you will get paid each time a visitor to your site applies to one of these jobs. More about this JobCoin move.
JobCoin didn’t cut it for me because PayPal is not allowed yet in our country. But for those who decide to give JobCoin a try, I’d appreciate it if you can update me how it goes.
SimplyHired’s Jobamatic is almost the same as JobCoin but it’s revenue sharing is 50/50 in stead of 70/30 in favor of the publisher. I tried Jobamatic just today to see how it will benefit a low-traffic blog. Will be posting developments here as they happen.
Here’s an interesting read about the cons of Jobamatic from StartupSquad.

[…] Get Paid Displaying Job Listings on Your Blog - I have paid job listings with JobCoin only to get disappointed because they won’t pay via check delivery. So I tried SimplyHired’s Jobamatic. Although I’m not sure if they also require PayPal-only payout method. If you’d like to see how Jobamatic works, it’s on my sidebar under the Jobs section. […]
[…] 6. Blog Job Boards. Online job boards abound. Certain well-established blogs have their own job boards that cater to their target readers. Some of these well-read blogs include Problogger’s Blogger Job Board, TechCrunch’s Job Board: CrunchBoard . By the way, did you know that you can make money online from job boards? […]
Good review of JobCoin, thanks! I’m sorry that we aren’t able to help you now because of the PayPal limitation. We do plan to implement other methods of payment that might work better for you. I’ll keep you posted on this front.
Keith,
Will be looking forward to those other payment methods.
