Job Overview

Our client is looking for a dedicated Link Building Specialist to join their team on a part-time basis. This is a strictly link-building-focused role — they are not looking for an SEO generalist. The ideal candidate lives and breathes backlinks and has a proven track record of building high-quality, white-hat links that drive real results.

Responsibilities

• Develop and execute white-hat link-building campaigns from start to finish
• Conduct outreach to relevant websites, bloggers, and publishers to secure editorial backlinks
• Identify link-building opportunities through competitor analysis and niche research
• Build and maintain relationships with webmasters and content creators
• Track and report on backlink acquisition, domain authority growth, and campaign performance
• Ensure all link-building activity adheres strictly to white-hat practices and Google guidelines

Requirements

• Minimum 2 years of hands-on experience in link building or backlink acquisition
• Strong understanding of white-hat SEO principles and Google Webmaster Guidelines
• Experience with outreach strategies, including guest posting, HARO, and editorial link placements
• Familiarity with tools such as Ahrefs, Semrush, or Moz
• Ability to work independently and manage outreach pipelines with minimal supervision
• Strong written English communication skills for outreach correspondence
• No black-hat or gray-hat practices — non-negotiable

• Experience working with international or English-speaking markets
