New Ownership and Website Updates

24 March 2011

After nearly 10 years in business, Protennisjobs.com, formerly Snooz Tennis, has recently undergone a change in ownership. The transfer has been successfully completed and the new owner, Ty Shields is happy to make his introduction.

The transfer was seamless, the site was only down for an hour, and all databases were transferred successfully. The main change that members should be aware of is just the currency for paid member subscriptions has been changed from you Euros to US dollars. In doing so paid membership prices have been slightly lowered. Also currently payment processing is limited to paypal but new payment
processing options will be added in the near future.

We have a lot of plans for the future but our main goal is to continue to grow and simply provide our users with hands down the best place online to find and post tennis jobs & tennis classifieds.

You should be noticing many more job postings than in the past. Not only do we plan to keep growing the job postings on the site we also plan to promote and populate the classifieds section of the site more to make this element of the site more useful for our users. We have already added a few new categories to the site: Tennis Jobs College, Director Tennis Jobs, Hitting Partners & Prize Money Tournaments.

Meet the new owner:

Not new to the tennis community by any means Ty has been involved in the sport of tennis for nearly 20 years, with a family full of tennis players and coaches.

Ty has been a website developer and internet marketer for the last 8 years and when the prospect of taking over a tennis related website opened up he was very happy to take on the project. He will be handling most of the frontend and backend aspects of the site including customer support, administration, editing, approvals, design and other technical aspects of the site. He can be emailed personally at ty@protennisjobs.com.

Please feel free to shoot Ty an email if you have any suggestions, feedback or questions regarding the changes or website in general.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to continuing to provide our users with a valuable service and a pleasant time on our site for many years to come.

Small problem for logged in users

12 October 2010

We appear to be having an issue with the display of content to logged in users.

This problem does not affect subscribers to our Tennis Jobs service (contact details will display correctly after login), but the My Classifieds and Post a Classifieds pages may display a “You are not logged in” message even if a user is logged in correctly.

We are aware of the problem and are working towards a resolution.

Update: We appear to have everything back to normal now. Please let us know if you come across any problems. Thanks and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Make your tennis classified stand out

29 May 2010

This is a good question for employers posting a tennis job vacancy or those of you who post a general tennis classified – how to make your ad stand out from everyone else’s.

Many times on the internet, we see capitalized letters LIKE SO – this won’t work on Pro Tennis Jobs – we will change the casing back to Like So before publishing your ad. Why? Because like you, we find screaming ads annoying.

So, how to make your ad stand out? Here are some tips:

  1. Use Textile. Our CMS – Textpattern – includes a very handy markup editor. More on this below.
  2. Keep your ads neat and tidy. Use paragraph breaks and make it easy to read.
  3. Check your spelling. Many times we have to correct spelling when approving ads. Not very impressive if you are looking for work – remember there may be an employer looking at your ad.
  4. Keep your text short and to the point. Sounds simple enough, right? Its a big mistake to generalize – be specific and get to the point.
  5. Use an image. Don’t forget you can upload an image along with your ad – great for coaches looking for work.
  6. Enter a good title for your ad. Look at the difference between “I want a job” and “Looking for work in Tampa, Florida”. Be descriptive and different.

Using Textile

Here are some great tips for using Textile in your ads.

  • Use bold text.. Place asterisks (*) around the text you want to be bold:

*this is going to be bold text*

  • Use bullets and numbers. Here’s how – add either an (#) for a numbered list or (*) for a bulleted list:
# List number 1
# List number 2
# List number 3
* Bullet item number 1
* Bullet item number 2
* Bullet item number 3
  • Use a header within your ad. See that “Using Textile” above? This is how to add this to your ad:

h3. Your title here.

For bullets, numbers and H3 headers, just make sure to enter each item on its own line, and press return or enter to start a new paragraph.

Good luck with your ads!

Member management software update

18 April 2010

Today we updated the software that is used for membership management.

The update is mainly for bug fixes and small improvements, including a new view on the Membership page which features a “tab” style navigation for the main membership tools – renewals, profile, payment history etc.

Although we don’t expect any problems with this minor update, please let us know if you come across any bugs.
