I recently came across a new opportunity to make money online. IpsoJobs is a site where potential employees can do job searches in their own area, in a way like career builder etc. The difference with IpsoJobs however, is that the available jobs are only posted for ten days before they disappear, making this site a place for urgent employment. The job listing is completely free for both employers and job hunters.
So where do you make money? Since this site is brand new they need so called city administrators. As a city administrator you have to remove spam and work to make your city as best you can. On their homepage they estimate that you have to work 7 hours a week, and in return you get 50% of the advertising income. You do not need programming experience to do this job; they have an online tool that’s very easy to use.
The founder of the site is from Spain, but they cover the whole world. When you sign up to be a city administrator you have to state which city you are interested in, and give some information about you as well as your Google AdSense code. You can sign up with as many cities as you like, and the time I applied till I was accepted took no more than a day.
As of now there are very few listings in the US, but this is mainly due to the fact that the site is brand new. I am the administrator of Bremerton, and I can see some good potential here if they manage to get business going. You as an administrator should also promote your city to generate traffic thus being able to make more money.
There are very few cities that have been taken, so there are lots of possibilities to get one or more cities. The downside as I see it now, I don’t know if they are going to change it, is that the advertising they have is in Spanish. Unless they change the languages to the appropriate regions, I have some doubts about the success of the site for administrators. If I was looking for a job I doubt I would have any interest in clicking an ad in Spanish, so I hope this gets fixed.
Another thing I noticed is that there might be problems with spam. An employee can list job offerings without a sign up, but I’ll have to wait till there’s traffic until I know how much spam this will generate.
At any time both you and they can terminate the agreement, meaning that if they don’t think you’re doing a good enough job with your city they will find someone else. It also means that you can quit at any time, you’re not committing yourself to anything. The cost to you is zero anyways, it’s completely free to join and apply.
I see some good potential, not only as a site to make money being an administrator, but also as a job search with many US job listings coming in the near future. Visit IpsoJobs here.
