Relax. It's just a name change.
We haven't been bought, we're not shutting down. Everything remains the same, except for the name, which means you will need to update your bookmarks to OffStageJobs.com.
Why? Well, the folks at Backstage.com and I got to talking. A visitor confused about which site they are really dealing with is an unhappy visitor. Neither the folks at Backstage.com nor I want visitors to be confused when finding our sites, especially when we offer some similar services. So, after some very friendly and positive conversations, we've decided this name change should help everyone.
We now become OffStageJobs.com. Backstage.com takes legal title to the name "BackstageJobs.com." Just the name, not the service. There will be a period of transition to allow everyone time to update their links and bookmarks, but there will be no interruption in our service.
What does this mean for you? Mostly, just changing your bookmarks to OffStageJobs.com. If you had a special bookmark to us, such as for just displaying Electrician jobs, you will need to edit the "backstagejobs.com" part of it to "offstagejobs.com". If you have spam filters, our server email will now send from offstagejobs@thecontactsheets.com. My email is now webmaster@offstagejobs.com.
Our Twitter account will change to reflect our new OffStageJobs.com name, though this should not require any action on the part of those currently following it. Our "Cue to Cue" blog address has changed with the new domain name, but our links should be updated to reflect that already.
Everything not related to our name stays the same. User accounts remain the same, all existing job and Contact Sheet listings remain the same, my snarky sense of humor remains the same... Most importantly, our goal remains the same: to help you find behind-the-scenes work in the live entertainment industry.
Think of it as continuing the show, but changing the title on the marquee.
OffStageJobs.com. Please update your links and bookmarks now.
