Hi, I am the creator of Remotewide, it could be possible that I've labeled some jobs incorrectly myself, so make sure to visit the /companies page and search a bit yourself, maybe there is something useful!

Thanks for checking out the page!


Hi, I am the creator of Remotewide, I am currently going over 25 companies I have on my list that offer location independent pay, and I am sure some of them have sales/accounting in them. Will probably come this week.


Hey, thanks for the site. I appreciate your reply. I'll be looking forward to it. Cheers.


Hi, I am very sorry that you had an unpleasant experience, as of the moment the Search is only used for pre-existing tags like "React" "Frontend" "Backend" etc. Here is an example https://i.imgur.com/MUrykgr.png


Yes the keywords I tried were all valid tags. I see you pushed a fix but it's still not working at the moment; will try again soon.

Is there a URL-hackable way to link to searches e.g. `remotewide.co/react`?


Will implement that this week for all of the pre-existing skills!


When I try using "Python" (one of the pre-existing tags listed), I similarly don't see anything happening.


Just figured it out. I added scroll & listings preserverance in my last commit and it seemed to mess up the search. Fix is deployed, will probably propagate in the next 15 minutes.

Thank you so much for reporting!


Thank you a lot! Added timezones and languages to my Trello list!


Hi, I am the creator of Remotewide, thanks a lot for your feedback!

I made the price 999$/yr after thoroughly looking into all other job boards, and I see that most of them offer around 150$ - 200$ per job post, so I think that 999 / 12 = 83$ / month for unlimited job posts makes it cheaper?

Do you have any other advice how I could improve this for candidates and companies? Thank you a ton!


It seems to me those job boards are not equivalent to yours - they have many, many, many more posts and many, many, many more eyeballs on those posts. If I'm your customer how do I justify paying quite a large up-front cost with no indication of what sort of results I can expect? At least if it was a relatively high per-job post charge I could maybe justify just using it once and dropping it as an experiment.


For a lot of businesses offering their product for free at the start just makes them fail. Probably would be good to focus on really high quality matchmaking at the start while you can be high touch, then fall back to normal-ish matching.


I applied to one of the jobs on your site today. I had not seen it anywhere else, although admittely I had not been shopping around. So whether your content existed elsewhere, I appreciated it and acted on it.

We like details. The salary (range) is essential. There is absolutely no reason to apply to a job that pays 60k when we are currently earning more than double that. So knowing up front what is possible saves a lot of time for the employer and the candidate. The remote and location independent pay factor are also very significant givens.

Beyond those, it comes down to the details and quality of listings. That is content you cannot control, although you can provide good suggestions to your company customers about what consitutes a good job post. The company I applied to had a great job post. So from my perspective, you at least attracted one high quality company.

Keep it up, and keep pushing. The more companies you gather, the more success we all have.


I am so happy to see this, thank you a lot for your feedback!


Hi, I am the creator of Remotewide, and this was one of my initial thoughts against building this, but then again, I found some other websites also focused on super-niche like 4dayweek.io - this can also be introduced as a filter on remoteok or any other leading job board, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to try :)


Someone I know created a 4 day work week job board. I think it was this one: https://30hourjobs.com/

There are definitely several takes on it. I say what the hell, if you can do something well, why not try


Hi, I am the creator of Remotewide, I will gladly add you to the site for free, no one has paid yet anyway
