How to Set Up a Job Website





1. Choose which types of jobs you want to post on your site and purchase a domain name to reflect that choice. If you want to list jobs in the non-profit industry or solely display opportunities for freelancers, choose an applicable domain name that will be easy for job searchers and potential employers to remember. A domain name is what users type in to view your website.
2. Add a template to your website. Choosing a ready-made job board themed template saves you a lot of time even if you have a proficient knowledge of HTML. WordPress offers a number of job board themes and plug-ins for your to choose from that require no programming and are easy to use. (see references)

3. Edit your website's template to match what you have to offer to site visitors. WordPress themes have an administrator's page where you go in and add pages to your site and edit the different drop-down and search menus.
4. Open a section of the site where visitors to your site can post job listings. If you want to, charge a fee per posting or per period of time a posting is live on your site. You can also choose whether or not you want to screen the posting before it goes live on your website. Allow job posters to include tags and categorize the postings so they will show up in the corresponding areas of the site.
5. Publish your website and advertise for it across the Internet. Participate in job-search or human resource related forums to interact with others, offer advice and drive traffic to your site and gain users.
6. Check your site periodically to ensure all links work properly and that no one is spamming the site with unwanted postings or job scams.
