Map-Based Job Board?

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

So, I have an idea for a map-based job board and have started doing some research for this and have come across this company that tried something similar but seems to have failed:

https://www.jobkaster.com/

I wonder, was there no demand for their idea, was it their shitty execution or was is something else that made them fail?

My idea is similar in that it uses a map to display job ads (can't say more) but I am now worried that there is no interest?

what do you think?

reason why most online business fails today is gonna have to be shitty execution


reason fb succeeded over myspace?

back end technical chops.

servers didn't crash. clean tight code .

great minimal design etc .


ur gonna wanna do heavy research before u just enter into the competitive space of online service.

As a young kid just barely started at Uni I would definitely use a sort of job map. That being said I wouldn't pay for it. Maybe rent ad space and have an option for donations?

Also it seems easy to replicate so maybe make some deals with specific companies to give your specific application more authenticity.

Just a kid's two cents.

also. think of how many search engines were out

lycos, ask jeeves, etc


b4 google , then u look me in the eye and tell me online isn't 100% about superior execution

I think Google is a somewhat special case because they came up with an entirely new algorithm for ranking web pages. But yes, I agree, execution is key, but JobKaster.com doesn't even look that bad (although it doesn't work) so I would have thought that their service would been received with open arms.

I'm not planning on charging for the service. I'm going to mine data from all the major job boards and feed them into my map, which can then be searched.

I'm not entirely sure as to how I would monetize the whole thing.

You charge hiring companies for "premium" ad slots like every other job board.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
