JobCoin - the blogger’s platform for job postings and getting paid
by
on November 06, 2006,

How about adding a job board to your blog where companies post jobs and you get paid? JobCoin is the answer! It is easy to set up, just fill in your particulars, your blog details, and copy the html code to your blog and you’re done. Each instance of the widget will randomly show a job and you can configure the number of jobs to be shown and the color and look of the widget. You can also use the same widget on multiple web sites and also create separate job boards for two websites that have different audiences.
Regarding payment, as soon as the credit card is processed, you will see the revenue earned (when logged into your Status page). It will actually be paid out to you via PayPal 30 days after processing. The “Scheduled Payments” section of the Status page shows you when the next payout will be. The 30 day delay is to allow:
- in case you choose to refund the job (if you thought a posting was inappropriate). This way the system won’t take your account balance negative.
- to allow for the possibility of credit card fraud and charge backs.
JobCoin can technically lose the money even 6 months after it was received (if someone complained of card theft), but after they pay it to you they will never take it back. That’s a good news for fellow blogger and the risk JobCoin takes.
Currently, bloggers earn 70% of the total amount, minus any fees PayPal may charge to transfer the funds. JobCoin takes 30% of the posting fee and they cover the credit card processing fees. Payment by check is not an option and presently PayPal is the only method of receiving money.

Diana,
Great summary of JobCoin! You really covered the logistics there. One thing worth mentioning is that adding a job board to a blog is all about giving the readers an opportunity to connect with one another. A blog is such a rare place where, as a reader, you’re surrounded with like-minded people who all share similar interests and passions. What better place is there to announce relevant job openings.
