    Hi,

    I was wondering if I were to pick up some news papers, then find the job section and list those jobs on my website www.careerhunt.com.au just to get the ball rolling, maybe mention that this listing was provided by the "paper"

    Would this be a major deal, or if someone rings/emails me to take them down, I can go along and do so..btw this is in Australia

    Thanks

    Copyright ads are copyrighted just like anything else. Unless you get permission from the newspaper to republish the information, you could get yourself into trouble.

    Also consider that the businesses who purchased the ads might not want them posted on your site, since they would have no control to make corrections or pull the ad when the job is filled.

    Why not buy a few ads yourself touting your free classified service?
