Portfolio Uptime & Link Monitor for Job Seekers
A lightweight, zero-configuration uptime monitoring tool built specifically for job seekers to ensure their resumes, portfolios, and GitHub links are always accessible to recruiters.
이것이 중요한 이유
When you are actively looking for work, you post links to your resume, code repositories, and personal portfolio across multiple social platforms and job boards. If your hosting provider goes down, your domain expires, or you accidentally introduce a broken link, you silently lose out on high-paying job opportunities. You rarely find out about the downtime unless a kind stranger replies to inform you that your page cannot be found. For a job seeker, every click from a hiring manager is critical. Losing a recruiter because your personal site returned a server error is a completely preventable disaster that current enterprise uptime monitors are too complex to solve quickly.
- · Active job seekers in the tech industry, junior developers, and designers.을(를) 위해 제작되었습니다.
- · 가장 유력한 수익화 모델: Freemium ($5/month for SMS alerts and faster checks).

실패 가능 요인
자가 반박 — 가장 중요한 신뢰 신호
- 1Unemployed individuals are highly price-sensitive and may refuse to pay even $5 for this service.
- 2The pain point is severe but infrequent; most static sites (like GitHub Pages or Vercel) rarely go down, leading to perceived low value.
- 3Users will cancel their subscription immediately upon securing employment, leading to massive, unavoidable churn.

During the discussion, one participant attempted to view another candidate's portfolio but encountered a page-not-found error, preventing them from evaluating the candidate's work. The candidate had to be manually informed of the broken link and resorted to offering files via direct message. This exchange highlights how fragile self-hosted professional materials can be and the immediate professional cost of dead links during a job search.
