Link Building Specialist

About Snezzi We help brands show up in AI answers. End to end. When someone asks ChatGPT "which probiotic should I buy for my dog" or Perplexity "best whatsapp automation tool," we make sure our clients are the ones being recommended. Not through hacks. Through real content, technical fixes, backlinks, and measurement. Founded by three operators who've built and exited bootstrapped companies before. Backlinks still matter. They matter for traditional SEO. They matter more for AI visibility, because the models lean heavily on authority and citation signals when deciding who to recommend. That's where you come in. The Role You own backlinks. For Snezzi, and for every client we serve. That means everything from high-effort relationship-led link building (guest posts, partnerships, digital PR, expert quotes, podcast features) to the systematic foundation work (directory submissions, profile creation, image and PDF distribution, citation building). Both matter. The first builds authority. The second builds breadth. Together they move the needle. You'll own outreach end to end. Identify targets. Write the pitch. Send it. Follow up. Close the link. Track it. You'll build relationships with editors, founders, journalists, and operators that compound over time. The same contact who writes for one client this month should be open to a feature on another client next quarter. The job is execution plus judgment. You know which links are worth chasing, which are a waste of time, and which will get a site penalized. You know the line between aggressive and risky. You stay on the right side of it.
