Job board for finding hospitality jobs in Poland
I was contacted on LinkedIn by a person that wanted to build a similar website. He was interested in either working on it together or buying it. Considering that it was only my 3rd indie project and he wanted to buy a website with almost no revenue, it was clear to me that I should sell. Price was evaluated based on the time that I spend building it and some bonus

Here's how I did it:
- Followed FB groups
- Saw people promoting products
- Made a Figma sketch of how their ad could look on my website
- Send it to one of the companies
- They replied right away and loved it ✅
It will be free for one month and that will be paid per month.
Some other companies booked it as well.
Will it be an option to monetize the website? 👀
Slowly getting some traffic. My current strategy is to share link of the website to Facebook groups.
As well, I implemented programmatic SEO which seems to work quite well. At the moment there are ~4k pages and number is growing.
Next goal is to reach 200 clicks per month 💪
I did my first-ever cold outreach on Facebook
It was not as painful as I thought 🙈
Within a few minutes, I got my first reply and the person was interested in posting her job there 💪
Also, the job board passed 2k offers which is crazy
I created an unstoppable aggregating monster
I wanted to solve to chicken/egg problem by aggregating offers from other platforms
Right now, it is aggregating offers from 3 websites
97% of the offers are from OLX (🤯) which is not exactly what I wanted (too much domination), but I will leave it for now

Nice to see the progress.I think aggregation is key. See the case of all booking (rental, transport) platforms for example. But scaling to respond fast, an providing best deals is the differentiator. Btw, are u based out of Warsaw, Poland?
