IT-Challenger Consulting Group – the vertical search technologies provider and integrator based in Newmarket, Ontario – launched today important improvements to its popular Fairy Lake Jobs Internet portal serving the communities of York Region, Ontario. Without limiting any of the search engine’s existing capabilities, the services that were introduced transform Fairy Lake Jobs into a full-fledged community information portal. The enhancements are aligned with the web site’s core mission of building stronger, more environmentally conscious communities, and helping reduce commuting in York Region.
A news section has been introduced, giving visitors a single point of access to current news releases of local interest published on the web sites of various institutions and organizations. The content of the news section is compiled using the same technology that maintains the Fairy Lake Jobs index of job postings. Fairy Lake Jobs now also accepts for free publishing news articles from local organizations, businesses, and residents.
In addition, a new “job seeker tips” section has been added, where employment market specialists from York Region provide valuable advise to local job seekers.
“Our objective behind introducing these new services is to make it easier for local residents to stay connected to their communities.”

In addition, the newly introduced “SmartAdvertising program” features easy-to-use self-service tools, allowing businesses and organizations to rent advertising slots on the web site, set up and update image or text advertising messages, target specific audiences, and access instant metrics of the success of each campaign. Advertising messages are clearly marked as such, but they are mixed with the content of the web site to making sure that each advertising message is noticed. “Given the high percentage of visits to Fairy Lake Jobs that originate in York Region, our SmartAdvertising program offers local businesses a very attractive alternative to traditional advertising methods”, says Mr. Ivanov. ”The advertising options that we provide are not only less expensive than most traditional methods: They also offer advertisers the level flexibility and intelligence that are simply not available with traditional methods.”
The latest changes have transformed Fairy Lake Jobs into a comprehensive community information portal that makes it easier for local residents, businesses, and organizations to share their knowledge and information about the local community and employment markets.
