Prices Rising on the Major Boards
Word has it that prices on the Big Boards are going up in Jan. by 10% or more which just makes sense based on the "stellar performance" of these sites over the past several years...... I must admit - I did not get an MBA, so can someone in the Blogesphere explain to me the economic principals whereby the prices rise when the traffic decreases..... Fact is, the interest today is in tapping other sources, like LinkedIn...
It is not economic principals in play that cause prices to rise when the traffic decreases. It is a coping mechanism hardwired into the business model, a throwback to the newspaper classifieds which spawned the big job boards.
Print advertising [help-wanted] rates increased as circulation numbers decreased. Its the same thing with job boards. Nothing to worry about.
