Running the business
Dynamite Jobs and We Work Remotely both charge the employer once per listing, with no subscription on either. Dynamite Jobs is $399, or about $300 with the 25 percent first-post discount, and draws on the Tropical MBA community of small remote-first businesses. We Work Remotely is $299 with no cheaper tier, and reading or applying is free for the candidate on both boards. We Work Remotely wins on price and reach, at six million monthly visitors. Dynamite Jobs sells a narrower, more specific audience for the extra $100.

A remote job board with one flat fee
Dynamite Jobs lists remote roles and charges the employer a single price for a post, with no subscription and no per-applicant fee. It came out of the Tropical MBA community, so the companies posting skew towards small remote-first businesses rather than enterprises with a recruiting team. For somebody hiring their first contractor, the flat fee is easier to reason about than a marketplace cut.
Our note
Four hundred dollars is a lot for one post next to a free listing on We Work Remotely, and the case for it is the audience rather than the features. Worth it for a role you need filled properly, hard to justify for speculative hiring.
The remote job board people actually read
We Work Remotely is where a creator business posts its first hire and gets applicants who already work remotely by choice. Reading it is free, and roles stay up long enough to be seen. A single post costs $299, which is steep for a one person operation hiring an editor, and there is no cheaper tier.
Dynamite Jobs is the pick when the specific audience is worth the extra cost: candidates who already follow the Tropical MBA world of small, founder-led remote businesses. At $399 it costs more than We Work Remotely for a narrower but more targeted readership.
We Work Remotely is the pick for reach at a lower price. A single post is $299 with no subscription and no cheaper tier, reaching six million monthly visitors who already work remotely by choice. Browsing and applying cost nothing on either board, so the $100 difference in posting price is the whole comparison.

Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
