Taking on the Big Boys! - Free Job Postings Online |

Job Ahoy! now boasts over 1 Million Job Ads and they've only
been running for 2 months!
With the cost of placing an online job ad spiraling rapidly
upwards, new job search engine, 'Job Ahoy!', is a breath of
fresh air to employers. Launched today, Job Ahoy! charges
nothing to post a job ad - and never will!
While conventional job search engines allow job-seekers free
access to most of their services, they charge employers to post
job ads. Career Builder in the US, for instance, charges USD
$350 to place a standard job ad. Job Ahoy! is absolutely free
for all users.
"The idea grew out of pure frustration," says Job Ahoy! founder,
Ian Butler. "When it took me half an hour to post a single job
ad on one of the major job sites, and I was charged several
hundred dollars for the honor, the seed was planted. A couple of
days later, I realized that the conventional job search engine
model isn't just frustrating, it's also |

becoming increasingly
ineffective." According to Mr. Butler, pay-per-post job search
engines exclude businesses that don't have the advertising
budget required. "Most jobs simply aren't advertised because the
employers can't afford the sky-rocketing prices. As a result,
job-seekers never find out about them. It's just bad business."
Mr. Butler says it was then that he realized the business
potential of free job search site which generates revenue
through banner ads and Google ads alone. "More and more people
are using the web to find their next job. In fact, the latest
figures value the UK market alone at USD $4-5 billion. Imagine
the growth if it were free! As conventional pay-per-post job
sites price themselves out of business, employers will turn
elsewhere. And where better than somewhere free? We're
anticipating a very high volume of web traffic, and it's this
traffic that will be our bread and butter."
Job Ahoy! will initially target the English speaking markets of
the USA, UK, and
Australia. It is professional, easy to use,
and, in addition to free job postings, it offers all the
standard tools for employers and job seekers, including email
notifications, job tracking, and resume and cover letter upload
facilities. Mr. Butler says that in the coming months, Job Ahoy!
plans to enhance the system by introducing an optional bidding
system to increase the position of your job listing - much like
Google AdWords, and within weeks, the site will boast over 2
million free job listings.
