Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES DHI Group, Inc. (“DHI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on June 28, 2005. DHI is a leading provider of data, insights and employment connections through its specialized services for technology professionals and other select online communities. Its mission is to empower tech professionals and organizations to compete and win through expert insights and relevant employment connections. Employers and recruiters use its websites and services to source, hire and connect with the most qualified and highly-skilled tech professionals, while professionals use its websites and services to find ideal employment opportunities, relevant job advice and tailored career-related data. For over 30 years, through its predecessor companies, the Company was built on providing employers and professionals with career connections, news, tools and information. On June 30, 2021, the Company transferred majority ownership and control of its eFinancialCareers ("eFC") business to eFC's management, while retaining a 40% common share interest. The eFC business was significant to the Company and the transfer was considered to be a strategic shift from the financial services industry and from the geographies eFC serves that had a major effect on the Company's operations. As a result, the eFC business was deconsolidated from the Company's consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and is reflected as a discontinued operation in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The historical Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Stockholders’ Equity and Cash Flows have not been revised to reflect the effects of the transfer of control of eFC. For further information on discontinued operations, see Note 4, “Discontinued Operations.” Unless noted otherwise, discussion in the notes to the consolidated financial statements pertain to continuing operations . The Company allocates resources and assesses financial performance on a consolidated basis, as all services pertain to the Company's Tech-focused strategy. As a result, t he Company has a single reportable segment, Tech-focused, which now includes only the Dice and ClearanceJobs brands, as well as corporate related costs. All operations are in the United States and the Company no longer has revenues and long-lived assets, which includes fixed assets and lease right of use assets, outside of the United States. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies that are not consolidated are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as described in Notes 4 and 7 of the notes to consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts ratably over the service period. Billings with customers are based on contractual schedules. Customer billings delivered in advance and payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. We generate revenues from the following sources: Recruitment packages. Recruitment package revenues are derived from the sale of a subscription to recruiters and employers that includes a combination of job postings and/or access to candidate profiles on Dice and ClearanceJobs. Certain of the Company’s arrangements include multiple performance obligations, which primarily consists of the ability to post jobs and access to candidate profiles. The Company determines the units of accounting for multiple performance obligations in accordance with Topic 606. Specifically, the Company considers a performance obligation as a separate unit of accounting if it has value to the customer on a standalone basis. The Company’s arrangements do not include a general right of return. Services to customers buying a package of available job postings and access to candidate profiles are delivered over the same period and revenue is recognized ratably over the length of the underlying contract, typically from one to twelve months. The separation of the package into two deliverables results in no change in revenue recognition because delivery of the two services occurs over the same time period. Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is recognized over the period in which the advertisements are displayed on the websites or at the time a promotional e-mail is sent out to the audience. Classified revenue. Classified job posting revenues are derived from the sale of job postings to recruiters and employers. A job posting is the ability to list a job on the website for a specified time period. Revenue from the sale of classified job postings is recognized ratably over the length of the contract or the period of actual usage. Career fair and recruitment event booth rentals. Career fair and recruitment event revenues, both live and virtual, are derived from renting booth space to recruiters and employers. Revenue from these sales are recognized when the career fair or recruitment event is held. Cash and cash equivalents— Cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments which have an original maturity of three months or less. Concentration of Credit Risk— Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk as substantially all of its deposits held in financial institutions were in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition as needed and does not require collateral on accounts receivable. No single customer represents 10% or more of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and no single customer represents 10% or more of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts— The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of DHI’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Statements of Cash Flows— All bank deposits are considered cash and cash equivalents. The supplemental disclosures to the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows are as follows (in thousands): 2022 2021 2020 Supplemental cash flow information: Interest paid $ 1,480 $ 825 $ 1,100 Taxes paid 2,849 393 457 Non-cash investing and financing activities: Capital expenditures on fixed assets included in accounts payable and accrued expenses 327 144 110 Share repurchases included in accounts payable and accrued expenses — — 141 Fixed Assets— Depreciation of equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer software and capitalized website development costs are provided under the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from two to five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided over the shorter of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. The cost of additions and improvements is capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred. Capitalized Software Costs— Capitalized software costs consist of costs to purchase and develop software for internal use. The Company capitalizes incurred software development costs in accordance with the Internal Use Software subtopic of the FASB ASC. Costs incurred during the application-development stage for software bought and further customized by outside vendors for the Company’s use and software developed by a vendor for the Company’s proprietary use have been capitalized. These costs are amortized over the software’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. Website Development Costs— The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in designing, developing, testing and implementing enhancements to its websites. These costs are amortized over the enhancement’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. Costs related to the planning and post implementation phases of website development efforts are expensed as incurred. Capitalized Contract Costs— The Company capitalizes certain contract acquisition costs consisting primarily of commissions paid when contracts are signed. For costs incurred to obtain new business sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over an average customer life, which was approximately two years as of December 31, 2022. For the remaining sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over a weighted average contract term, which was approximately one year as of December 31, 2022. See Note 5 for additional disclosures. Leases— We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company primarily has operating leases for corporate office space and certain equipment. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of the lease liability is calculated on the basis of the present value of the remaining lease payments, and the right-of-use asset is measured on the basis of this liability, adjusted by prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives, and initial direct costs. When readily available, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement of the lease, including the lease term. Because the implicit rate in each lease is not available, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Variable components of the lease payments, such as utilities and maintenance, are expensed as incurred and are not included in determining the present value. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight- line basis over the lease term. Equity Method Investment— The Company has a 40% non-controlling common share interest in the eFC and Rigzone businesses as the Company does not have the ability to direct the activities of the businesses that most significantly impact their economic performance. The 40% common share interest is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company does have the ability to exercise significant influence over the businesses. The recorded value is adjusted based on the Company's proportionate share of the businesses net income and is recorded three months in arrears. The Company sold its 40% common share interest in Rigzone in the second quarter of 2022. See Note 7 for additional disclosures. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Acquired Intangible Assets— Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets include the Dice trademarks and brand name. The Company performs a test for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually on October 1, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the carrying value of the recorded asset is impaired. The impairment review process for goodwill compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which goodwill resides to its carrying value. The impairment review process for indefinite-lived intangible assets compares the fair value of the assets to their carrying value. The determination of whether or not the asset has become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the Company’s reporting units or the intangible asset. Changes in the Company’s strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. See Notes 9 and 10 for discussion of impairment charges. Foreign Currency Translation— For the Company’s foreign operations, which entirely related to eFC prior to June 30, 2021, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are charged to operations as incurred. Translation adjustments subsequent to June 30, 2021 relate to the Company's equity method investment in eFC. Advertising Costs— The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $17.9 million, $12.5 million and $10.9 million, respectively. Income Taxes— The Company recognizes deferred taxes by the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The primary sources of temporary differences are stock-based compensation, amortization and impairment of intangible assets, depreciation of fixed assets, and capitalized contract costs. Stock-Based Compensation— The Company has a plan to grant equity awards to certain employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation , the Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. See Note 15 for additional disclosures. Fair Value of Financial Instruments— The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The Company’s long-term debt consists of borrowings under its credit facility. Investments consist of common and preferred share ownership interests in businesses. See Notes 3 and 11 for additional disclosures. Risks and Uncertainties— The Company is subject to the risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the rapidly evolving markets for online products and services. These risks include the failure to develop and extend the Company’s web sites and brands, the rejection of the Company’s services by consumers, vendors and/or advertisers, the inability of the Company to maintain and increase the levels of traffic on its web sites, as well as other risks and uncertainties. In the event that the Company does not successfully execute its business plan, certain assets may not be recoverable. Use of Estimates— The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. DHI’s significant estimates include the useful lives and valuation of fixed assets and intangible assets, goodwill, lease right-of-use assets, income taxes, and the assumptions used to value the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”) of the Company. Earnings per Share— The Company follows the Earnings Per Share topic of the FASB ASC in computing earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations, and net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. When the effects are dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards as determined under the treasury stock method. Certain stock awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect. See Note 18 for additional disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements— In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current "incurred loss" model with an "expected loss" model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of a financial asset. ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for Smaller Reporting Companies. The Company is evaluating the expected impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. The new standard requires entities that are customers in cloud computing arrangements to defer implementation costs if they would be capitalized by the entity in software licensing arrangements under the internal-use software guidance. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those years. The amendments allow either a retrospective or prospective approach to all implementation costs incurred after adoption. The Company adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2020, under the prospective approach, and capitalized implementation costs are included in other assets on the Company's balance sheet. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The FASB ASC topic on Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. As a basis for considering assumptions, a three-tier fair value hierarchy is used, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: • Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. • Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and long-term debt approximate their fair values. Investments, non-current that were carried at fair value, prior to the conversion to preferred shares as described in Note 7, used a discounted cash flow technique based on the probability of one or more possible outcomes, based on Level 3 inputs, which inputs and fair value did not change during the 2022 period prior to the conversion. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on Level 2 inputs. Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, for example, when there is evidence of impairment. Such instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. These assets include equity investments, operating lease right-of-use assets, and goodwill and intangible assets which resulted from prior acquisitions. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable. On June 30, 2021, the Company transferred majority ownership and control of its eFC business to eFC's management, while retaining a 40% common share interest. On June 30, 2021, the Company valued its 40% interest in eFC utilizing a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market approach. The discounted cash flow included declining revenues for the years ending December 31, 2021 and 2022 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 and then increasing moderately. The discounted cash flow also included operating margin declines for the year ending December 31, 2022 compared to the year ending December 31, 2021 and then increasing moderately. The Company utilized a discount rate of 19%. The market approach included the analysis of data from transactions on guideline companies and applied multiples of those transactions to eFC's results |

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONSAs further described in Note 1, on June 30, 2021, the Company transferred majority ownership and control of its eFC business to eFC's management, while retaining a 40% common share interest. As a result, we have reflected eFC's financial results as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. The results of discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations were as follows (in thousands): 2021 2020 Revenues $ 12,130 $ 25,711 Operating expenses (10,821) (22,926) Operating income 1,309 2,785 Loss on disposition of discontinued operations (1) (30,203) — Other income 1 4 Income (loss) before income taxes (28,893) 2,789 Income tax expense 447 407 Net income (loss) $ (29,340) $ 2,382 (1) The loss was comprised of $28.1 million related to the reclassification of currency translation adjustments and $5.2 million from the removal of eFC's net assets. The loss was partially offset by the recording of an equity investment of $3.6 million and eFC's earnings during the six month period ended June 30, 2021. Depreciation, fixed asset purchases and other significant non-cash items related to discontinued operations were as follows (in thousands): 2021 2020 Depreciation $ 774 $ 1,760 Purchases of fixed assets $ 447 $ 225 Cash paid for amounts included in measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows from operating leases $ 804 $ 1,520 |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block] | . REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts. We recognize revenue when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer either on a ratable basis over the contract period beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer or as the products and services are used. The Company excludes sales tax from the transaction price and therefore, recognizes revenue net of applicable sales taxes. Customer billings delivered in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. The Company generates revenue from recruitment packages, advertising, classifieds, and virtual and live career fair and recruitment event booth rentals. Disaggregation of revenue Our brands primarily serve the technology and security cleared professions. The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue by brand (in thousands): For the Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Dice (1) $ 106,957 $ 86,257 $ 82,190 ClearanceJobs 42,723 33,646 28,977 Total $ 149,680 $ 119,903 $ 111,167 (1) Includes Dice and Career Events.

As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company elected the expedient, where applicable. As a result, the Company did not consider the effects of a significant financing component. Contract liabilities include customer billings delivered in advance of performance under the contract, and associated revenue is realized when services are rendered under the contract. Receivables increase due to customer billings and decrease by cash collected from customers. Contract liabilities increase due to customer billings and are decreased as performance obligations are satisfied under the contracts. The Company recognized the following revenues as a result of changes in the contract liability balances in the respective periods (in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 Revenue recognized in the period from: Amounts included in the contract liability at the beginning of the period $ 45,311 $ 35,692 $ 42,309 Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations Under the guidance of Topic 606, the following table includes estimated deferred revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period (in thousands): 2023 2024 2025 Total Tech-focused $ 50,121 $ 668 $ 75 $ 50,864 |

Leases | LEASES The Company has operating leases for corporate office space and certain equipment. The leases have terms from one year to ten years, some of which include options to renew the lease, and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Our recorded lease right-of-use asset and lease liability were each reduced $2.1 million as of December 31, 2022, which represents a tenant improvement allowance that is expected to be consumed in 2023. The components of lease cost were as follows (in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 Operating lease cost 1 $ 2,103 $ 2,277 $ 2,551 Sublease income (475) (543) (1,018) Total lease cost 2 $ 1,628 $ 1,734 $ 1,533 (1) Includes short-term and variable lease costs, which are immaterial.

The Company reviews its right-of-use ("ROU") assets for impairment if indicators of impairment exist. The impairment review process compares the fair value of the ROU asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded. During the year ended December 31, 2021, due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19 on the real estate markets and its impact on the future cash flows attributable to its ROU assets, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.9 million.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investment | INVESTMENTS Investments, Current, at Fair Value Through its predecessor companies, the Company owned a minority interest representing less than 1% of the common stock of a technology company that completed an initial public offering ("IPO") and became publicly traded during the first quarter of 2021. Prior to the IPO, the Company had elected the measurement alternative in accordance with FASB ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities. As of December 31, 2020, it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of its interest because there were no observable transactions for the investment. Accordingly, the investment was carried at its original cost, less impairments, which resulted in a carrying value of zero as of December 31, 2020. The investment was accounted for as an equity security, with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. During the third quarter of 2021, the investment was sold for $1.2 million. Accordingly, the recorded value as of December 31, 2021 was zero. A realized gain of $1.2 million has been recorded for the year ended December 31, 2021. Investments, Non-current, at Fair Value During the third quarter of 2021, the Company invested $3.0 million through a subordinated convertible promissory note (the "Note") of $3.0 million with a values-based career destination company that allows the next generation workforce to search for jobs at companies whose people, perks and values align with their unique professional needs. The Note earned interest at 6.00% and matured at the earlier of a Qualified Financing, as described in the Note, or settled in cash on or after August 20, 2022, at the option of the Company. Upon a Qualified Financing, the Company will convert its investment into shares of preferred stock at 80% of the per share value in the Qualified Financing. The investment was recorded as a trading security at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. The Note was recorded at $3.0 million as of December 31, 2021. In the third quarter of 2022, a Qualified Financing occurred and the Note was converted into preferred shares representing 4.9% of the outstanding equity in the underlying business, on a fully-diluted basis. The Company's preferred shares are substantially similar to shares purchased by a third party investor in the Qualified Financing that resulted in such investor becoming the majority owner of the business, holding 50.5% of the outstanding equity in the business, on a fully-diluted basis. Therefore, the Company's shares in the business were recorded at fair value based on the price per share realized in the Qualified Financing. The value of the Company's investment was $0.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and is recorded as an investment in the consolidated balance sheet. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment loss during the year ended December 31, 2022 of $2.3 million. The Company has elected the measurement alternative in accordance with FASB ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities. As of December 31, 2022, subsequent to the Qualified Financing, it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of its interest because there were no observable transactions for the investment. Accordingly, the investment was carried at the value realized in the Qualified Financing as of December 31, 2022, as described above. Investments, Non-current Rigzone is a website dedicated to delivering online content, data, and career services in the oil and gas industry in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific. Oil and gas companies, as well as companies that serve the energy industry, use Rigzone to find talent for roles such as petroleum engineers, sales professionals with energy industry expertise and skilled tradesmen. On August 31, 2018, the Company transferred a majority ownership and control of the Rigzone business to Rigzone management, while retaining a 40% common share interest, with zero proceeds received from the transfer. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold its 40% interest in Rigzone to Rigzone management for $0.3 million. At the time of the sale, the recorded value of the investment was zero. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $0.3 million gain on sale, which was included in gain on investments on the consolidated statements of operations. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a legal settlement with a former employee of Rigzone and received $2.1 million, net of certain legal costs and subject to other agreements. The settlement is recorded as proceeds from settlement in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. As further described in Notes 1 and 4, on June 30, 2021, the Company transferred majority ownership and control of its eFC business to eFC's management, while retaining a 40% common share interest with zero proceeds received from the transfer. The Company incurred approximately $0.1 million in selling costs and recognized a $30.2 million loss on the transfer in the second quarter of 2021, which included a $28.1 million charge related to accumulated foreign currency loss that was previously a reduction to equity. eFC is a financial services careers website, operating websites in multiple markets in four languages mainly across the United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Asia, the Middle East and North America. Professionals from across many sectors of the financial services industry, including asset management, risk management, investment banking, and information technology, use eFC to advance their careers. The Company has evaluated the 40% common share interest in the eFC business and has determined the investment meets the definition and criteria of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Company evaluated the VIE and determined that the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the VIE, as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance. The common share interest is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over eFC. The investment was recorded at its fair value on June 30, 2021, the date of transfer, which was $3.6 million. The Company's equity in net assets of eFC as of June 30, 2021 was $2.2 million. The difference between the Company's recorded value and its equity in net assets of eFC is amortized against the recorded value of the investment in accordance with ASC 323 Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures . The amortization was not material for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The recorded value is further adjusted based on the Company's proportionate share of eFC's net income and is recorded three months in arrears. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $1.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of income related to its proportionate share of eFC's net income, net of currency translation adjustments and amortization of the basis difference. As of December 31, 2019, the Company held preferred stock representing a 7.6% interest in the fully diluted shares of a tech skills assessment company. As of December 31, 2019 it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the preferred stock as the shares were not traded. The investment was carried at its original cost of $2.0 million and was included in the other assets section of the consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, based on the investment's historical cash burn rate, uncertainty of its ability to meet revenue and cash flow projections, current liquidity position, lack of access to additional capital, and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company determined the value to be zero. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2.0 million during the first quarter of 2020. As of December 31, 2022, there have been no additional shares issued that were similar to the Company's share rights and the investment is recorded at zero as of December 31, 2022. On January 31, 2018, the Company transferred a majority ownership of the BioSpace business to BioSpace management, while retaining a 20% preferred share interest in the BioSpace business. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company sold its 20% interest in BioSpace to BioSpace management for $0.2 million. At the time of sale, the recorded value of the investment was zero. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $0.2 million gain on sale, which was included in interest expense and other on the consolidated statements of operations. |

Intangible Assets, Net (Excluding Goodwill) [Abstract] | |
Acquired Intangible Assets, Net | ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET Considering the recognition of the Dice brand, its long history, awareness in the talent acquisition and staffing services market, and the intended use, the remaining useful life of the Dice.com trademarks and brand name was determined to be indefinite. We determine whether the carrying value of recorded indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets is impaired on an annual basis or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The annual impairment test for the Dice trademarks and brand name is performed on October 1 of each year. The impairment review process compares the fair value of the indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recorded. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had an indefinite-lived acquired intangible asset of $23.8 million related to the Dice trademarks and brand name. During the first and third quarters of 2020, because of the initial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on future earnings and cash flows that are attributable to the Dice trademarks and brand name, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7.2 million and $8.0 million, respectively. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The projections utilized in the October 1, 2022 analysis included increasing revenues at rates approximating industry growth projections. The Company’s ability to achieve these revenue projections may be impacted by, among other things, uncertainty related to COVID-19, competition in the technology recruiting market, challenges in developing and introducing new products and product enhancements to the market and the Company’s ability to attribute value delivered to customers. The October 1, 2022 analysis included operating margins during the year ending December 31, 2022 that approximate operating margins for the year ended December 31, 2021 and then increasing modestly. If future cash flows that are attributable to the Dice trademarks and brand name are not achieved, the Company could realize an impairment in a future period. The Company's operating results attributable to the Dice trademarks and brand name through December 31, 2022 and projections of future results approximate those included in the projections utilized in the October 1, 2022 analysis. In the October 1, 2022 analysis, the Company utilized a relief from royalty rate method to value the Dice trademarks and brand name using a royalty rate of 4.0% based on comparable industry licensing agreements and the profitability attributable to the Dice trademarks an brand name and a discount rate of 12.0%. |

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
GOODWILL | GOODWILL The following table shows the carrying amount of goodwill as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the changes in goodwill for the years then ended (in thousands): Goodwill at January 1, 2020 $ 150,707 Impairment (22,607) Goodwill at December 31, 2020 $ 128,100 Activity during 2021 — Goodwill at December 31, 2021 $ 128,100 Activity during 2022 — Goodwill at December 31, 2022 $ 128,100 Accumulated impairment losses at December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $22.6 million. Goodwill as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, which was allocated to the Tech-focused reporting unit, was $128.1 million. The annual impairment test for the Tech-focused reporting unit is performed on October 1 of each year. The results of the impairment test indicated that the fair value of the Tech-focused reporting unit was substantially in excess of the carrying value as of October 1, 2022. Results for the Tech-focused reporting unit for the fourth quarter of 2022 and estimated future results as of December 31, 2022 approximate the projections used in the October 1, 2022 analysis. As a result, the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value as of December 31, 2022. Therefore, no quantitative impairment test was performed as of December 31, 2022. During the third quarter of 2020, because of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on future earnings and cash flows for the reporting unit, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $22.6 million. There were no changes to goodwill and no impairments were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The projections utilized in the October 1, 2021 analysis included increasing revenues at rates approximating industry growth projections. The Company’s ability to achieve these revenue projections may be impacted by, among other things, uncertainty related to COVID-19, competition in the technology recruiting market, challenges in developing and introducing new products and product enhancements to the market and the Company’s ability to attribute value delivered to customers. The October 1, 2022 analysis included operating margins during the year ending December 31, 2022 that approximate operating margins for the year ended December 31, 2021 and then increasing modestly. If future cash flows that are attributable to the Tech-focused reporting unit are not achieved, the Company could realize an impairment in a future period. The discount rate applied for the Tech-focused reporting unit in the October 1, 2022 analysis was 11.0%. An increase to the discount rate applied or reductions to future projected operating results could result in future impairment of the Tech-focused reporting unit’s goodwill. It is reasonably possible that changes in judgments, assumptions and estimates the Company made in assessing the fair value of goodwill could cause the Company to consider some portion or all of the goodwill of the Tech-focused reporting unit to become impaired. In addition, a future decline in the overall market conditions, uncertainty related to COVID-19, and/or changes in the Company’s market share could negatively impact the estimated future cash flows and discount rates used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit and could result in an impairment charge in the foreseeable future. The determination of whether or not goodwill has become impaired is judgmental in nature and requires the use of estimates and key assumptions, particularly assumed discount rates and projections of future operating results, such as forecasted revenues and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization margins and capital expenditure requirements. Fair values are determined either by using a discounted cash flow methodology or by using a combination of a discounted cash flow methodology and a market comparable method. The discounted cash flow methodology is based on projections of the amounts and timing of future revenues and cash flows, assumed discount rates and other assumptions as deemed appropriate. Factors such as historical performance, anticipated market conditions, operating expense trends and capital expenditure requirements are considered. Additionally, the discounted cash flows analysis takes into consideration cash expenditures for product development, other technological updates and advancements to the websites and investments to improve the candidate databases. The market comparable method indicates the fair value of a business by comparing it to publicly traded companies in similar lines of business or to comparable transactions or assets. Considerations for factors such as size, growth, profitability, risk and return on investment are analyzed and compared to the comparable businesses and adjustments are made. A market value of invested capital of the publicly traded companies is calculated and then applied to the entity’s operating results to arrive at an estimate of value. Changes in our strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of goodwill. |

Indebtedness | INDEBTEDNESS Credit Agreement —In June 2022, the Company, together with Dice Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dice Career Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which matures in June 2027 and replaces the Company's Old Credit Agreement (defined below). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving loan facility of $100 million ($90 million under the Old Credit Agreement), with an expansion option of $50 million, bringing the total facility to $150 million, as permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement. At the closing of the Credit Agreement, the Company borrowed $30 million to repay, in full, all outstanding indebtedness, including accrued interest, under the Old Credit Agreement. Unamortized debt issuance costs from the previous credit agreement of $0.2 million and debt issuance costs of $0.5 million related to the new agreement were recorded as other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and are recorded to interest expense over the term of the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest, payable at least quarterly, at the Company’s option, at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or a base rate plus a margin. Borrowings under the credit agreement denominated in pounds sterling, if any, bear interest at the Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") rate plus a margin. The margin ranges from 2.00% to 2.75% on SOFR and SONIA loans and 1.00% to 1.75% on base rate loans, determined by the Company’s most recent consolidated leverage ratio, plus an additional spread of 0.10%.

Restricted payments are allowed under the Credit Agreement to the extent the consolidated leverage ratio, calculated on a pro forma basis, is equal to or less than 2.00 to 1.00, plus an additional $7.5 million of restricted payments each fiscal year, as described in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also provides that the payment of obligations may be accelerated upon the occurrence of events of default, including, but not limited to, non-payment, change of control, or insolvency. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers and the guarantors. Previous Credit Agreement - The Borrowers previously maintained a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Old Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to mature in November 2023. The Old Credit Agreement, when entered into during November 2018, provided for a revolving loan facility of $90 million, with an expansion option of $50 million, bringing the total facility to $140 million, as permitted by the terms of the Old Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Old Credit Agreement accrued interest, at the Company's option, at the London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or a base rate plus a margin. The margin ranged from 1.75% to 2.50% on LIBOR loans and 0.75% to 1.50% on base rate loans, determined by the Company's most recent consolidated leverage ratio. The Company incurred a commitment fee ranging from 0.30% to 0.45% on any unused capacity under the revolving loan facility, determined by the Company’s most recent consolidated leverage ratio. There was no penalty for prepayment of the Old Credit Agreement.

Restricted Stock— Restricted stock is granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and to non-employee members of the Company’s Board. These shares are part of the compensation plan for services provided by the employees or Board members. The closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant is used to determine the fair value of the grants. The expense related to the restricted stock grants is recorded over the vesting period as described below. There was no cash flow impact resulting from the grants. The restricted stock vests in various increments on the anniversaries of each grant, subject to the recipient’s continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date. Vesting occurs over one year for Board members and over two to four years for employees. A summary of the status of restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 and the changes during the periods then ended is presented below: Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Non-vested at beginning of the period 3,371,832 $ 2.80 3,877,853 $ 2.49 3,994,787 $ 2.46 Granted 1,238,331 $ 5.13 2,267,683 $ 2.98 2,172,550 $ 2.67 Forfeited (132,218) $ 3.43 (684,976) $ 2.73 (430,136) $ 2.81 Vested (1,838,659) $ 2.68 (2,088,728) $ 2.43 (1,859,348) $ 2.58 Non-vested at end of period 2,639,286 $ 3.96 3,371,832 $ 2.80 3,877,853 $ 2.49 Expected to vest 2,639,286 $ 3.96 3,371,832 $ 2.80 3,877,853 $ 2.49 PSUs— PSUs are granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. These shares are granted under two compensation agreements that are for services provided by the employees. The first agreement expired and was terminated during the first quarter of 2020 and there were no unvested shares as of March 31, 2020. Under the second agreement, the fair value of the PSUs are measured at the grant date fair value of the award, which was determined based on an analysis of the probable performance outcomes. The performance period is over one year and is based on the achievement of bookings targets during the year of grant, as defined in the agreement. The earned shares will then vest over a three year period, one-third on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, or if later, the date the Compensation Committee certifies the performance results with respect to the performance period. For the performance period ended December 31, 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the overall economy, the bookings targets were modified during the third quarter of 2020. Accordingly, the Company remeasured the awards. There were no cash flow impact resulting from the grants. A summary of the status of PSUs as of December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 and the changes during the periods then ended, is presented below: Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 2020 Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Shares Weighted- Average Fair Value at Grant Date Non-vested at beginning of the period 1,593,775 $ 2.62 1,352,438 $ 2.50 1,664,650 $ 2.53 Granted (1) 1,553,332 $ 3.77 990,000 $ 2.62 911,460 $ 2.65 Forfeited (2) (93,341) $ 2.40 (161,946) $ 2.63 (695,628) $ 3.26 Vested (966,833) $ 2.64 (586,717) $ 2.32 (528,044) $ 1.88 Non-vested at end of period 2,086,933 $ 3.48 1,593,775 $ 2.62 1,352,438 $ 2.50 Expected to vest 2,086,933 $ 3.48 1,593,775 $ 2.62 1,352,438 $ 2.50 (1) PSUs granted includes 853,332 additional PSUs granted in the first quarter of 2022 related to the bookings achievement for the performance period ended December 31, 2021. (2)PSUs forfeited includes 48,633 PSUs forfeited in the first quarter of 2021 related to the bookings achievement for the performance period ended December 31, 2020. Stock Options— The fair value of each option grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the weighted-average assumptions in the table below. This valuation model requires the Company to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the expected life (the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding), the volatility of the Company’s common stock, a risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The expected life of options granted is derived from historical exercise behavior. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of grant. The stock options vest 25% after one year, beginning on the first anniversary date of the grant, and 6.25% each quarter following the first anniversary. There was no cash flow impact resulting from the grants. No stock options were granted during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. There were no options outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2022 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies that are not consolidated are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as described in Notes 4 and 7 of the notes to consolidated financial statements. |
Revenue [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is recognized net of customer discounts ratably over the service period. Billings with customers are based on contractual schedules. Customer billings delivered in advance and payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the service period. We generate revenues from the following sources: Recruitment packages. Recruitment package revenues are derived from the sale of a subscription to recruiters and employers that includes a combination of job postings and/or access to candidate profiles on Dice and ClearanceJobs. Certain of the Company’s arrangements include multiple performance obligations, which primarily consists of the ability to post jobs and access to candidate profiles. The Company determines the units of accounting for multiple performance obligations in accordance with Topic 606. Specifically, the Company considers a performance obligation as a separate unit of accounting if it has value to the customer on a standalone basis. The Company’s arrangements do not include a general right of return. Services to customers buying a package of available job postings and access to candidate profiles are delivered over the same period and revenue is recognized ratably over the length of the underlying contract, typically from one to twelve months. The separation of the package into two deliverables results in no change in revenue recognition because delivery of the two services occurs over the same time period. Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is recognized over the period in which the advertisements are displayed on the websites or at the time a promotional e-mail is sent out to the audience. Classified revenue. Classified job posting revenues are derived from the sale of job postings to recruiters and employers. A job posting is the ability to list a job on the website for a specified time period. Revenue from the sale of classified job postings is recognized ratably over the length of the contract or the period of actual usage. Career fair and recruitment event booth rentals. Career fair and recruitment event revenues, both live and virtual, are derived from renting booth space to recruiters and employers. Revenue from these sales are recognized when the career fair or recruitment event is held. Cash and cash equivalents— Cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments which have an original maturity of three months or less. |
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Credit Risk— Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk as substantially all of its deposits held in financial institutions were in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition as needed and does not require collateral on accounts receivable. No single customer represents 10% or more of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and no single customer represents 10% or more of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. |
Receivables, Trade and Other Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Allowance for Doubtful Accounts— The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of DHI’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Statements of Cash Flows— All bank deposits are considered cash and cash equivalents. The supplemental disclosures to the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows are as follows (in thousands): 2022 2021 2020 Supplemental cash flow information: Interest paid $ 1,480 $ 825 $ 1,100 Taxes paid 2,849 393 457 Non-cash investing and financing activities: Capital expenditures on fixed assets included in accounts payable and accrued expenses 327 144 110 Share repurchases included in accounts payable and accrued expenses — — 141 |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment [Policy Text Block] | Fixed Assets— Depreciation of equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer software and capitalized website development costs are provided under the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from two to five years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided over the shorter of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. The cost of additions and improvements is capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred. |
Internal Use Software, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Capitalized Software Costs— Capitalized software costs consist of costs to purchase and develop software for internal use. The Company capitalizes incurred software development costs in accordance with the Internal Use Software subtopic of the FASB ASC. Costs incurred during the application-development stage for software bought and further customized by outside vendors for the Company’s use and software developed by a vendor for the Company’s proprietary use have been capitalized. These costs are amortized over the software’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Preproduction Design and Development Costs [Policy Text Block] | Website Development Costs— The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in designing, developing, testing and implementing enhancements to its websites. These costs are amortized over the enhancement’s estimated useful life, which generally approximates two years. Costs related to the planning and post implementation phases of website development efforts are expensed as incurred. Capitalized Contract Costs— The Company capitalizes certain contract acquisition costs consisting primarily of commissions paid when contracts are signed. For costs incurred to obtain new business sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over an average customer life, which was approximately two years as of December 31, 2022. For the remaining sales contracts, the Company capitalizes and expenses these costs over a weighted average contract term, which was approximately one year as of December 31, 2022. See Note 5 for additional disclosures. Leases— We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company primarily has operating leases for corporate office space and certain equipment. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of the lease liability is calculated on the basis of the present value of the remaining lease payments, and the right-of-use asset is measured on the basis of this liability, adjusted by prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives, and initial direct costs. When readily available, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. When leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement of the lease, including the lease term. Because the implicit rate in each lease is not available, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Variable components of the lease payments, such as utilities and maintenance, are expensed as incurred and are not included in determining the present value. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight- line basis over the lease term. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Acquired Intangible Assets—Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The indefinite-lived acquired intangible assets include the Dice trademarks and brand name. The Company performs a test for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets annually on October 1, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the carrying value of the recorded asset is impaired. The impairment review process for goodwill compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which goodwill resides to its carrying value. The impairment review process for indefinite-lived intangible assets compares the fair value of the assets to their carrying value. The determination of whether or not the asset has become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the Company’s reporting units or the intangible asset. Changes in the Company’s strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. See Notes 9 and 10 for discussion of impairment charges. |
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block] | Foreign Currency Translation— For the Company’s foreign operations, which entirely related to eFC prior to June 30, 2021, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are charged to operations as incurred. Translation adjustments subsequent to June 30, 2021 relate to the Company's equity method investment in eFC. |
Advertising Cost [Policy Text Block] | Advertising Costs— The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $17.9 million, $12.5 million and $10.9 million, respectively. |
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes— The Company recognizes deferred taxes by the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The primary sources of temporary differences are stock-based compensation, amortization and impairment of intangible assets, depreciation of fixed assets, and capitalized contract costs. |
Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block] | Stock-Based Compensation— The Company has a plan to grant equity awards to certain employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation , the Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. See Note 15 for additional disclosures. |
Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Fair Value of Financial Instruments— The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The Company’s long-term debt consists of borrowings under its credit facility. Investments consist of common and preferred share ownership interests in businesses. See Notes 3 and 11 for additional disclosures. |
Unusual Risks and Uncertainties [Table Text Block] | Risks and Uncertainties— The Company is subject to the risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the rapidly evolving markets for online products and services. These risks include the failure to develop and extend the Company’s web sites and brands, the rejection of the Company’s services by consumers, vendors and/or advertisers, the inability of the Company to maintain and increase the levels of traffic on its web sites, as well as other risks and uncertainties. In the event that the Company does not successfully execute its business plan, certain assets may not be recoverable. |
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates— The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. DHI’s significant estimates include the useful lives and valuation of fixed assets and intangible assets, goodwill, lease right-of-use assets, income taxes, and the assumptions used to value the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”) of the Company. |
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Earnings per Share— The Company follows the Earnings Per Share topic of the FASB ASC in computing earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations, and net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. When the effects are dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards as determined under the treasury stock method. Certain stock awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect. See Note 18 for additional disclosures. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | New Accounting Pronouncements— In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current "incurred loss" model with an "expected loss" model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of a financial asset. ASU 2016-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for Smaller Reporting Companies. The Company is evaluating the expected impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. The new standard requires entities that are customers in cloud computing arrangements to defer implementation costs if they would be capitalized by the entity in software licensing arrangements under the internal-use software guidance. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those years. The amendments allow either a retrospective or prospective approach to all implementation costs incurred after adoption. The Company adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2020, under the prospective approach, and capitalized implementation costs are included in other assets on the Company's balance sheet. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes |
