How to Create a CNAME Record for Job-A-Matic
Job-a-matic, a subsidiary of Simply Hired, enables you to add targeted job listings to your website to monetize your viewerbase. Of course, creating an account on Job-a-matic does make much sense if you can't connect the account to your domain. Canonical names are there to fill the gap; a CNAME record will link your website to your Job-a-matic account while still allowing you to use your own domain or subdomain as the Web address.
