Not to discourage you, but typically by the time a job is posted on one of those sites and someone contacts the company to inquire about a position, it has already been filled. Your best bet is to have a connection through a friend, acquaintance, family. Are you on LinkedIn?

I'm not, is it a good resource? I'm also emailing companies nearby that I feel I would be a good fit for but maybe LinkedIn would be a good idea too!

It can be. Sort of like Facebook for professionals. You can connect with friends, colleagues, family, etc. they also have job postings. You build a profile with your work/professional experience and skills.
I just recently graduated from TCU and my mother works in the career center there. That's where I learned that traditional job websites aren't very effective.
