Is there an easy way to create a job listing site which will list jobs from sites such as monster, dice, indeed etc?

A wordpress with plug in or something similiar that can be easily build?

    Hi Eric - we use wprobot for just that purpose on some sites. it may not provide the structure you are looking for but basically we just take rss feeds for cities (using craigslist for example) and set wprobot up to post every hour into city categories we set up in wordpress. a simple solution that drives some traffic. oddly enough, some of the sites have been up for years and survived every google adjustment.

      Thank you for advice.

      Did you run across issues due to Google duplicate content rules?

      Did you find adsense or another ad network that work well with job sites?

    There are already lots of similar sites so I am not sure why you would want to waste your time competing.

      You are right but at this point every area/niche has a lot of competition so i am not sure there are better options.

    Hi Eric, no problem with duplicate content and we use Adsense and a sprinkle of affiliate offers.

    Set your site up properly and niche it into specific jobs/areas and you will find traffic that converts regardless of who else is doing this.

    Good luck. I,m not on the board much but feel free to drop me a pm with any questions.

      Why is duplicate content not a problem?

    I build a jobsite more than 10 years ago but I couldn't get it to work. This was before wordpress, the big problem I had was getting employers to pay to post jobs. If I had to do it all over again I probably would not do it at all.

    what you have to think about is: why would they choose me? you have to come up with something that will make people prefer your website rather than others. Personally, in my country there are tons of local websites and I only use 3
