Death of Cheezhead

I've recently noticed the Cheezhead and HRSEO domains are redirecting to Jobing.

You might ask.. So what?

How did it become a cycle based on dependency?
Dependency was inherent in the process where companies would pay to ship their candidates to a community resume database… Continue

The internet has been experiencing a massive amount of duplicate job content over the past couple of years.

Yeah! I am always sad to see Great web content - laying on the waste side. I would of thought they would of re-branded the content somehow. Oh Well - For now I will just mourn the loss!

Thanks Teena.. I knew and would've pointed to the blog post (on Cheezhead) but it doesn't exist anymore ;o)

Hey Chad! Not sure if you know, or that it means anything, but Joel joined Jobing.com's staff. He's serving as Senior Vice President. Personally, I've pulled links to Cheezhead mainly because I was quoting and referencing Joel's content, not Jobing'…

Lost it with Recruiting.com when Jobster ditched it (although I hear it may still be alive and well somewhere in the nether regions of a db) and now this with Cheezhead.

Thanks for pointing this out, Chad. An unfortunate side-effect of the redirect is that we've lost a nice archive of job-board and recruiting news and analysis.

Jeff, I believe every size board can learn from the basic philosophy. If you're already performing better in some added value areas than the rest of the population of boards then good for you, although don't pat yourself on the back for too long bec…

The answer is not just waiting for the economy to turn and innovate. The answers, especially around niche, are many as long as vendors understand the product offering may also be offline.
