The way job boards make money is to have employers pay to post jobs on the board. PPC and Display ads pay very little.
You could charge an employer $200 to post a job. Or you could try to reach hundreds of thousands of pageviews from non-adblock devices to get the same amount in Adsense money.

You can have ads without the tracking, just like @andrepd mentioned.

It's not up to us to validate their idea and "allow the owner to make money" by disabling ad-blockers. This site is just another shitty rent-seeking middleman among middlemen, and hopefully it dies a quick painful death that encourages the owner to make something original.

This comment breaks both the Show HN rules and the site rules. Would you please read and follow them?
People deserve to be paid for their effort, and unless you want to pay a monthly subscription to an entry-level job tracker, advertising or collecting emails are really the only two ways to do it in this example.
