• Page Relevance: The specific page you’re linking from must receive traffic and be contextually relevant to the client’s niche

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: Proven track record managing backlinks, vetting link prospects, and overseeing outreach or vendor relationships
• Tools: Comfortable with Ahrefs, Semrush, or similar SEO/link-analysis platforms
• Communication: Fluent in English (native speaker preferred), with excellent written and verbal skills
• Organization: Highly reliable, consistent, and detail-oriented in meeting monthly quotas

Schedule & Availability

Full-Time: Approximately 35–40 hours per week, results-based with flexible scheduling.

Core Check-In Windows:
