Has the Economy Impacted Blogger Job Listings? Posted: 21 May 2009 07:57 AM PDT In August 2006 I realized that I was regularly getting two types of email requests:
As a result I decided to start a Job Board for Bloggers. The concept was simple. Those looking to hire bloggers could place an ad for 30 days for $50. Those looking to find a blog job could subscribe to the job board RSS feed to be notified of new jobs. It has been 34 months since I launched the job boards. In that time we’ve seen 720 paid listings for jobs on the board. As I was doing some analysis of the job listings over this period I realized that the data might be interesting to others also as an indicator of how the current economic climate has impacted the job hiring scene. While I wouldn’t read too much into the data as the sample size is relatively small I found the following chart interesting. A few notes on the chart:
A few observations:
Again - I wouldn’t read too much into these figures due to the size of the sample and the natural growth of the site as it has become more well known but I do at least take a little comfort from the fact that there does seem to be hiring going on in the blogging industry despite what’s happening in the wider economy.
