| What is homefriday? |
|
We are the online job marketplace where discerning householders find Australia’s quality home-service providers. The key is that the providers list extensive
information including their specific skills, level of experience and availability to do the job.
This page gives a stripped-back snapshot on how to get
started and highlights some of the core functions of the site, such as our
feedback rating system, which allows service providers to show how well they
have performed. This is their chance to be rewarded for good work and proudly
stand out from the crowd – not be just another name in the directories and
classifieds.
It is also a fantastic opportunity for householders, who can
look at people’s track record and make a conscious decision before letting
anyone into their home. No more ‘hit-and-miss’.
You don’t have to register to have a look around – be our
guest! The site can be used effectively as an in-depth directory, but you will
access many more facilities by joining – which is simple, painless and you only
need to do it once.
You can then list your household jobs, advertise your
service provider profile, contact a householder to apply for a position, or use
our informative community notice board, homefriday village. |

| Service providers – getting started |
|
- Join quickly and simply via the blue ‘my homefriday’ button, and advertise your
skills, experience, professional associations and references.
- Choose one of the advertising options, starting from
pay-per-click at a mere $10. Ask yourself - where else would you find a cheaper
entry-point advertising rate than that? If you think of one, let us know - we haven’t
found anything to match it yet. And remember, the fact that this is a paid advertising
system (albeit very affordable) shows householders your commitment and increases your
employability in their eyes.
- This could be the cheapest way ever to list so much detail, effectively giving you
your own web presence inside a dedicated directory, without the design and hosting costs
of a full web page. And you can point potential employers to your profile to check out
your special skills and past performance - a powerful individual marketing tool.
- We highly recommend that you seek out relevant feedback from a recent employer.
This will give your profile a big boost, affecting where you appear in search results
and the overall quality of your listing. Simply approach a satisfied customer and ask
them to log onto the site as a householder (for free), search for your profile and add
a feedback rating and comments.
- One significant advantage of homefriday is that you can be found online by householders
and make your own arrangements with them directly. No ongoing meddling, agency commissions,
job lead costs or any additional charges from homefriday.
- Each additional feedback from a householder builds your online reputation and helps
you to get more of the work which suits you best.

| Householders – getting started |
|
- Join quickly and simply via the blue ‘my homefriday’ button, then click on the green
‘find a service provider’ button and let our search engine find the person who
best suits your household needs.
- Click on the turquoise ‘post free job ad’ button to list all your requirements –
location, experience you seek, rate you wish to pay and more.
- Then you can either send the job to the person you have found, wait for other
applications for your position, or activate ‘profile alerts’ and homefriday
will let you know as soon as a matching service provider lists their details.
- All this is free, with no ongoing agency costs, fees, charges or interference from
homefriday. You make your own arrangements and contact the person directly when
you next need them.
- Leave feedback on their service. This ensures that your voice is heard and you also
benefit from the feedback left by other householders just like you.
