Well, first of all... only about 30% of available jobs are listed online, so you should only spend about 30% of your time job hunting online.
You should probably get a phone book from the area you want to move to and send unsolicited resumes and cover letters to companies you would want to work for... even if they don't have an opening at the moment they will possibly keep you in mind later when something opens.
Call placement agencies throughout the area... they will probably let you fax your resume and do a phone interview (so you don't have to fly out for it)... it's always good to have a pro. working for you!
Connect with your GLO's alum. association in the area... see if they have any members who work in your field... maybe they will hook you up with at least an internship or something.
And, finally, see if your field has any professional resources... for instance, there is a book called "The Writer's Market" which publishes contact info. on all the magazines in the nation for freelance writers so they can try to get them to print their stories. I know many other professions have similar resources.
