What is @levelsio's network worth?

We're all fans of @levelsio, but a frequent critique of some of his projects is that they're only successful because he has such a large social following.

I think this critique is unfounded in most cases because he's also an excellent builder who moves fast and has a good sense of what makes a product successful.

However, he recently posted an experiment he's running, a job board of AI related jobs:

His idea validation is approx $1,000 MRR.

Now in my opinion it's pretty hard to differentiate a job board, and success comes basically from driving traffic. The more people visit your job board, the more it's worth for businesses to pay for listings.

With that I thought it would be neat to essentially do an A/B test with what @levelsio is doing, since we can take the product out of the test.

With that I made promptjobs.co

I have zero social network, so I bring no organic traffic or brand recognition to this test. My approach would be to do SEO, paid marketing, maybe a little bit of growth hacks, to essentially see what it would take to replicate his Network effects. What does it take for me to get to $1000?

I'll share all my data! Follow me here on Twitter if you want to get updates as I will build and market in public:

The current site was done in an afternoon just off of a great WordPress theme that basically did all the work for me.

Now my next steps are as follows, in no particular order:

• Add-in various SEO tools to wordpress
• Either manually enter unpaid listings, or build some pipeline to fetch job listings and publish it on the job board
• Start with a LinkedIn campaign targeting the prominent companies in the space, as well as job seekers.
• Post the site and as many locations as I can find
• Create all the socials
• Automate a bunch of content
• Install a bunch of pixels and run retargeting campaigns.
• Automate the publishing of a newsletter, push that up all the socials.

Anything I am missing?

PS: I know nothing about SEO really haha
