SEO RECOVERY SPECIALIST WANTED – US BASED ONLY Read This Before Applying If you’re an SEO “expert” who sells backlinks, runs automated reports, outsources work overseas, or believes SEO consists of publishing a few blog posts every month, do not apply. If your strategy is PPC, Google Ads, AI-generated content, generic SEO packages, or monthly ranking reports with little accountability, do not apply. We are looking for a legitimate SEO professional with a proven track record of recovering rankings, increasing organic traffic, and dominating competitive local search markets. The Situation We operate a well-established healthcare company with a significant online presence and a long history of strong organic rankings. For years, we ranked at or near the top of Google for many of our most valuable keywords. After engaging a new SEO provider, rankings, traffic, and visibility declined. We are looking for someone who can quickly identify what was changed, determine what caused the decline, and implement a strategy to restore and improve our rankings. This is not a maintenance position. This is a recovery mission. What We Expect You will: * Conduct a complete forensic SEO audit * Identify technical SEO issues * Review all recent site changes * Diagnose ranking losses * Review site architecture and internal linking * Analyze indexing and crawl issues * Audit content quality and topical authority * Review local SEO signals * Analyze backlink profile and authority * Develop and execute a recovery strategy * Deliver measurable ranking improvements We are not looking for theories. We are looking for results. Who Should Apply Only apply if you can confidently answer YES to all of the following: * Have you personally recovered websites after major ranking losses? * Have you ranked businesses in highly competitive local markets? * Have you worked extensively with Google Search Console, GA4, Ahrefs, SEMrush, and Screaming Frog? * Can you identify ranking issues without needing months of “testing”? * Can you explain exactly what caused a ranking drop and provide a plan to fix it? * Are you personally doing the work? If not, please save both of us time and do not apply. What We Are NOT Looking For * Agencies * White-label SEO providers * Overseas teams * Junior SEO consultants * Virtual assistants * Link-building vendors * PPC specialists * Social media marketers * Generic content writers * Anyone learning SEO on our dime Our Goal Our goal is simple: Dominate organic search. We want to rank #1 for our most important keywords and local markets. We are willing to invest in the right person, but we expect expertise, accountability, communication, and execution. Required With Your Application Provide: 1. Three examples of websites you personally helped recover after significant ranking losses. 2. The cause of the ranking issue. 3. What you did to fix it. 4. The measurable results achieved. 5. Your location within the United States. 6. Your favorite SEO tool and why. 7. A brief explanation of the biggest SEO mistake you see businesses make today. Final Note We know enough about SEO to recognize the difference between real expertise and recycled marketing jargon. If your proposal contains buzzwords, generic promises, or copy-and-paste agency language, it will be rejected immediately. We’re looking for a professional who can diagnose problems, create a recovery strategy, execute at a high level, and produce results. If that sounds like you, apply.
