Launch a niche job board

A niche job board is a beautiful business — employers pay to post, candidates come for the focus, and the whole thing runs on structured data. The hard part is keeping it stocked: importing roles, structuring each one, and refreshing the board as listings expire. This guide turns that into a prompt. With a jobs plugin and NIBWP, an agent imports and structures roles from feeds or descriptions, drafts SEO for each, and keeps the board fresh on a schedule.

Who this is for

Founders launching a niche job board, recruiters aggregating roles, and communities adding a jobs section. You bring the niche and the source feed; the agent does the structuring and the upkeep.

What you will build

• Categorized job postings with salary, location and type
• Company profiles linked to their listings
• Bulk import from a feed, CSV or plain descriptions
• SEO-ready titles and meta for every role
• A scheduled refresh that adds new roles and expires old ones

Before you start

You need a job-board plugin (WP Job Manager or a jobs CPT) active, NIBWP with a write-scoped token, and a connected MCP client. A feed or CSV of roles helps; the agent can also draft plausible starter listings.

The stack

Step 1 — Set up the structure

With the jobs plugin active, NIBWP exposes its listing type and taxonomies. Have the agent build your category and job-type terms in one batch.

You: Create job categories: Engineering, Design, Marketing.\n     Create job types: Full-time, Contract, Remote.\nnibwp/wp-create-term { taxonomy: job_listing_category } x3\nnibwp/wp-create-term { taxonomy: job_listing_type } x3\n3 categories, 3 types created

Step 2 — Import the roles

Hand the agent a feed, a CSV or a list. It drafts a posting for each role with salary, location and type filled in, categorized correctly, as drafts you review.

You: Import these 30 remote engineering roles. Set type Remote,\n     fill salary and location, draft each.\nnibwp/wp-create-post { type: job_listing, status: draft } x30\n30 roles imported as drafts - structured and categorized

Step 3 — Optimize and publish

Generate SEO titles and meta for each role, review the drafts, and publish. Job pages with strong titles rank for long-tail searches candidates actually use.
