We are looking for a relentless and creative Link Building Specialist who understands that quality beats quantity. You won't just be "building links"; you'll build relationships and secure placements that drive real traffic and ROI. You will focus on high-impact strategies like competitor analysis, targeted link inserts, content collaborations, and publisher recruitment.
Key Responsibilities:
- End-to-End Outreach Campaigns: Execute specific link-building campaigns from ideation to execution (identifying targets, finding contact info, and sending pitches)
- Competitor Analysis: Reverse-engineer competitor backlink profiles using tools like Ahrefs/SEMrush to find replicable high-value opportunities
- Relationship Management: Build, negotiate, and maintain relationships with publishers, link partners, bloggers, and editors for future collaboration
- Quality Control: Audit links and brand mentions to ensure they meet our strict quality metrics (minimum DR, organic traffic requirements, and relevance)
- Reporting: Track live links and report on campaign performance/ROI on a weekly/monthly basis
What You Bring to the Table:
- Experience: 2+ years of proven experience in link building or digital PR
- Tool Stack: Proficiency with Ahrefs (or SEMrush), link building software (Pitchbox or similar), outreach tools, and PR platforms (Muckrack, HARO)
- Communication: Exceptional written English. You know how to write a subject line that gets opened and a pitch that gets a "Yes."
- Resilience: You are comfortable with rejection and know that follow-ups are where the wins happen
Bonus Points For:
- Pitchbox experience
- Experience evaluating websites and knowing what a link is worth and how to price a placement
- Existing relationships with publishers, webmasters, and journalists
- Experience with "Digital PR" tactics (newsjacking, HARO, etc.)
- Basic understanding of HTML/WordPress for uploading guest posts
