Are you interested in niche or a general board - start up or established?

If you're looking for the software and data but can drive the traffic yourself, then I can help you. We recently acquired EntryLevelJobs.net and jobs posted to our flagship CollegeRecruiter.com domain are now running on the ELJ domain. The integration will be complete within months and we are moving towards similar arrangements with sites powered by other organizations under which they'll choose whether to keep all of the revenue generated from employers or candidate actions. My recollection of your business model is that you do lead generation for the military so you'll probably prefer to keep the revenues from the employers.; ▶ Reply to This

However, our most successful affiliates are 'job boards'. With that, we are eager to launch/purchase a job board targeted to 17-34 year olds to address those who may not elect the military as a career. Additionally, we have exisiting military candidates who are leaving the military.. and searching for a civilian career. You see, having our own civilian job board would benefit us in mulitiple ways.

We recently launced military.net (job board niche just with military jobs) and have recently purchased jobscity.com and usacareers.com domain names. We've talked with integrators like indeed.com and beyond, but ideally, like to purchase an existing job board with its own existing traffic. Glad to hear that you're continuing to do so well. Did you attend the affiliate summitt, T.R.A.F.F.I.C, or any of the industry shows?; ▶ Reply to This

We're leaving Beyond.com this year so will be assuming responsibility for the lead gen work that they've done for us. We've done some but they've done most of it. As we take that work back, we'll spend more time at the affiliate and other such conferences while continuing to have a strong presence at the recruiting conferences.; ▶ Reply to This

We were attracted to it by its strong traffic of hundreds of thousands of visitors per year. It had negligible revenues prior to our acquisition but that was reflected in the acquisition price. We're able to monetize the traffic and will build up the revenues over time. We're not on a shopping spree, but will certainly be interested in acquiring more sites if the right opportunities present themselves.; ▶ Reply to This

I also own several other niche sites that could be rolled out as a turn-key business: ParkandRecreationJobs.com, SpaandsalonJobs.com, AquaticsCareers.com, etc.
