WP Job Manager Stats

Description

The Stats addon integrates a metrics panel into WP Job Manager that records views, applications, and impressions for each published job, displaying daily, weekly, and monthly charts directly on the job editing screen. Designed for job classified sites that need to justify the performance of each listing to advertisers, it transforms raw traffic data into clear reports, accessible both by the administrator and the job author.

Main Features of Stats

• View counter per job
  Records each access to the individual job page and stores the history in the WordPress database.
• Tracking of submitted applications
  Measures how many clicks the apply button received and how many submissions were completed.
• Charts on the job dashboard
  Renders time series directly on the editing screen, with filters by day, week, and month.
• Access by the job author
  Provides a summary of metrics on the employer’s own dashboard, without exposing the site admin.
• Statistics column in the listing
  Adds views and applications columns to the WordPress Jobs list for quick comparison.

Benefits of Stats

• Justification for paying advertisers
  Proves with numbers the return of each published job, supporting renewals and upsells.
• Data-driven decisions
  Identifies which categories and ad formats engage more and deserve highlighting on the homepage.
• Higher employer retention
  Advertisers who see transparent performance return to post new jobs more frequently.
• Optimization of the application funnel
  Compares views with submitted applications and exposes bottlenecks in the form or job description.

Who is Stats For?

• Those operating a job board with WP Job Manager and charging employers per published job.
• Niche sites (IT, health, gastronomy, freelancers) that need to show performance by category.
• Those who want to offer performance reports as a competitive advantage over traditional job portals.
• Agencies managing career portals for clients and needing to provide monthly traffic reports.

How to Download Stats

Stats is available for download here at Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it at Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file, and activate it. Remember that WP Job Manager needs to be installed and active beforehand for metrics to start collecting on each published job.

By adding an analytical layer to the WP Job Manager ecosystem, Stats fills an important gap for those monetizing job listings: the lack of objective evidence about the reach of each ad. With views, clicks, and applications tabulated per job, the portal begins discussing performance based on real numbers, not perception, which supports paid plans and fosters loyal recurring employers.
