Tell us more about Real Work From Anywhere

Real Work From Anywhere is the only job board dedicated for work from anywhere jobs. When I was in university, I was tired of popular remote jobs being full of location-restricted remote jobs. Some jobs were mis-labeled as worldwide remote jobs but are restricted to specific countries. So, I wanted to build a site that curates fully work from anywhere remote jobs for candidates like me to get a remote job from anywhere in the world.

‍

Who's your target audience?

My target audience is remote job seekers and digital nomads. My ICP is fully work from anywhere companies.

‍

How many users do you have?

We've got around 250,000 job seekers on the website.

‍

How did you find your first 100 users?

My first users came from actively building in public, and sharing it on communities including Reddit, HN, etc. As I wasn't experienced in SEO I couldn't see SEO as an acquisition channel in the beginning. But building in public and gaining some experience helped me realize SEO is inevitable. So, I learned SEO with some trial and error. Now SEO is the biggest traffic channel for Real Work From Anywhere.

‍

What growth channels worked for you?

For the first 2 years, it had been incredibly hard to acquire backlinks and gain some momentum in SEO. It's like no one wants to link to you unless you pay. But I kept building nevertheless and sharing the site on forums. But  on the third year, I have started to get links from some prominent sites and mentions from big influencers. It helped move the needle in SEO. Some of the big sources of traffic now includes Google, Youtube, Bing, Reddit, and ChatGPT.

‍

There are so many job boards out there. What makes you unique?

We are the only job board to provide fully work from anywhere jobs carefully curated.

‍

How do you make money, and how much do you make?

We make most of our revenue through advertising via Google Adsense. Last month we made $6.2k and we've now made over $25k in the last 12 months, and $16.5k already in 2025.

‍

How much does it cost you to run?

This project only costs $6 to run for me which I spend on hosting.

‍

What's been your biggest achievement?

My biggest achievement is that I bootstrapped this job board to $5k in monthly revenue in 2025 as a solo dev.

‍

What would you do differently if starting again?

I believe what I did so far is great for me, so definitely follow the same path.

‍

What's one piece of advice you'd give to someone just starting out?

Persevere and be consistent. What's working for others might not work for you. Be in it long term to actually find out what will work for you. And double down on it.

‍

Any quotes you live by?

"Stay hungry. Stay foolish" - Steve Jobs

‍

What's next? What's your plan for the future?

I want to focus more on SEO and bring more job seekers traffic to the site.
