Bottomline:

Indeed attracts far more traffic from users in the U.K. than Reed.co.uk does, offering employers a far larger audience. Indeed is overall more cost-effective, with more affordable database access plans, a free job posting plan, and the option for employers to set their own budget for promoted postings.

However, Reed.co.uk is among the next most popular job portals in the U.K., which still makes it a good option for reaching a large local audience. While both sites have a feature-rich offering, employers looking for fast customer service turnaround times may prefer Reed.co.uk, as the platform offers live chat support, which Indeed lacks.

FAQs:

Is Indeed or Reed.co.uk better?

Unlike Reed.co.uk, Indeed allows employers to post jobs for free, making it the more affordable of the two job sites. Indeed also charges less for access to their resume database.
