Full-Time SEO & RPM Specialist

About the role I'm a US-based founder running a 7-figure e-commerce education brand. I'm hiring ONE dedicated, full-time specialist to own the search presence of my personal name and my company brand across Google. This is not an agency-style "do a little for many clients" gig — you'll work only on my two brands and go deep. I want someone sharp, fast, and self-directed who treats this like their own project. You'll be handed a complete strategy document (keyword list, targets, 6-month plan) on day one. Your job is to execute it brilliantly and report on progress. What you'll do Build and optimize dedicated landing pages on my two main sites (reviews, testimonials, FAQ, "is it legit," success stories) with clean on-page SEO. Implement technical SEO: Person & Organisation schema (JSON-LD), FAQPage schema, page-speed fixes, alt text, internal linking, sitemaps. Create and maintain high-quality positive web properties: WordPress, Medium, Quora answers, Crunchbase, About.me, Behance, SlideShare, Issuu, business directories/citations. Write genuinely good, human content (not spun/AI-sludge) targeting branded keyword variations. Run white-hat guest-post outreach to real authority sites and manage placements (I cover placement fees). Track rankings weekly for ~30 branded keywords and send a clean monthly report (positions, what moved, what's next). Help generate and manage legitimate customer reviews (Trustpilot, Google, etc.). Proactive reputation management You must have 3+ years hands-on SEO, ideally including reputation / branded-SERP / "SERP real estate" work. Proven results pushing pages up Google for competitive branded terms (show me before/after). Strong written English — your content has to read like a native speaker wrote it. Working knowledge of schema markup, on-page SEO, and at least one rank tracker (Ahrefs, SEMrush, or similar). Self-management. I'll give direction and a playbook; I won't micromanage daily tasks. Nice to have Online reputation management (ORM) experience. Basic web dev (WordPress, HTML/CSS, landing-page builders like Strikingly/Webflow/Elementor). Experience with AI-search / AEO (how brands show up in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, etc.). To apply (read carefully — I filter out anyone who doesn't) Start your reply with the word "PAGE ONE" so I know you read this. Share 2 specific examples where you moved a branded keyword up Google's rankings — include the keyword, the starting/ending position, and roughly how long it took. Tell me which rank-tracking and SEO tools you use daily. Your monthly rate expectation for full-time work and your time zone / overlap with US hours. I'll shortlist a few people for a small paid test task (one optimized landing page + a schema implementation) before hiring. Strong performers get a raise and bonuses fast. Looking to hire this week.
