Company Description sojo provides amenities for vacation rentals — but we're not just a product company. We're the vacation rental industry's first amenity automation platform, and a B2B SaaS company operating at the intersection of product, tech, and logistics. We connect directly to property managers' reservation calendars to automate guest amenity delivery — think welcome bundles, toiletry kits, custom-branded coffee packaging, and snack bags waiting for guests when they walk through the door. We handle everything from sourcing products to custom packaging design to making sure the right products are packed and shipped on time for every single reservation. Role Description We're looking for an SEO expert who knows Shopify well and can help us improve organic visibility, fix technical issues, and build a keyword strategy that actually moves the needle. This role is a great fit for someone who works from data, communicates clearly, and can translate an audit into a prioritized action list a non-SEO team can actually execute on. We're currently running paid search campaigns and starting to gather strong search term data — you'll have that intel to inform your organic strategy from day one. *A note on our team: We're currently building out a small roster of freelance talent — including a Shopify Landing Page Designer/Developer and a Copywriter. If you work within a team or have a trusted network across these disciplines, we'd love to know. Here's what you'll be working on: - Technical SEO Audit. Identify and prioritize gaps across our Shopify site — page speed, metadata, structured data, crawlability, redirects. - On-Page Optimization. Meta title review across all pages, headings, internal linking, schema — the fundamentals done right. - Keyword & Content Strategy. Research and prioritize keywords aligned to our ICP and funnel; brief our content team on opportunities. - Blog & Case Study Optimization. Audit and optimize existing blog posts and case studies, and set up an ongoing optimization process for new case studies as we publish them. We're currently using Avada SEO & AI Blog — we'd love your take on whether it's the right tool for us and how to get more out of it (or what we should be using instead). - Ongoing Strategy & Reporting. Track performance, flag wins and gaps, and keep our team informed without drowning us in dashboards. - AI Search Strategy. Help us show up where leads are searching — including AI-powered tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. What We're Looking For - Shopify SEO fluency — you know what's fixable in-platform vs. what needs a developer. - Comfortable with crawl tools, Core Web Vitals, structured data, and Search Console. - Able to turn findings into clear, prioritized recommendations a marketing team can act on. - Strong communicator — we're not SEO experts, and we need a partner who can bridge that gap. - Bonus: Familiarity with HubSpot (our CRM and blog platform). - Responsive, reliable, and able to act quickly. - Familiarity with Notion and Slack a plus. To Apply Share examples of past SEO work (before/after metrics are always welcome), the tools you rely on, and your rate and availability.

I am working on a system using AI to review and respond on Google Drive (Shared Drive) folders of PDF's. Using Gemini as a POC I get responses that sometimes reach outside of my specified folders of content, but sometimes, some PDF files are ignored too. Also, when the response to a prompt come back, the sources are linked. However, the links only bring up the first page of the PDF file wherein the linked source material is, AND NOT THE pdf PAGE of the specific info. I need to have the AI (Gemini, Grok, etc.,) be used to query just.... but all, of the PDF files, within a set of folders in Google Drive (Shared Drive), and to respond with linked content. Said links must open to the PDF PAGE, not just the PDF which houses the specific info. In short, I think I need a viewer, but someone who has experience working with AI and PDF's will likely know the issue I am running into. In the end my system will have a UI attached, so there is a lot of possible side work on this project. First I need to build a better POC. For instance, if I open ONE of the PDF files in Google Drive, I can prompt on that file, and the correct PDF page does come up in the viewer, (While no other files are considered for the queried content.) But when I give Gemini many source PDF's or a folder of PDF's, the links only go to the first page pf the PDF with the information used as the sourcwe.

2. The core concept An online marketplace exclusively for verified trading card sellers (sports cards, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering) to sell directly to buyers. Designed to recreate the feeling of browsing a real card show, online. The two features that make this different from a generic marketplace: Map-based discovery — buyers find shops via a US map with pins, not just a search bar Value box flip experience — buyers browse a seller's box of cards by flipping through them one at a time (card-back reveal, fan animation between cards), with a toggle to switch to a standard grid view Important clarification on value boxes: These are NOT mystery packs / blind boxes. Every card and its price is visible — buyers see exactly what they're getting before buying. The "flip" is purely a browsing interaction, not a gambling mechanic. 3. Business model Sellers pay a flat monthly subscription fee (target: ~$49/month, considering tiers — see below) Zero fees on individual sales — sellers keep 100% of every sale This directly undercuts eBay (13.25%/sale), Whatnot (8%/sale), and COMC (~12% all-in) Sellers are manually verified/approved before they can list — not an open marketplace. This is a core trust/quality signal for buyers. Possible future tiers: Starter ($29/mo), Pro ($49/mo), Elite ($99/mo with featured placement + priority support) — not finalized, flat single tier is fine for MVP 4. User roles Buyer Browse shops via map or category Browse a shop's inventory (flip view or grid view) Search by player, team, set Filter by price and category Save/watchlist cards Follow shops to get drop notifications Make an offer or buy now Message sellers directly Seller (verified/approved only) Apply for an account, gets manually approved Dashboard with stats: active listings, monthly sales total, open offers, follower count Upload cards via guided flow: photo → AI auto-detect details → review/edit → set price → publish Option to add a listing to a "value box" grouping or list it standalone Build and publish "drop announcements" (title, date/time, teaser text) that notify all followers Manage/respond to offers and messages Edit or delete listings Easy way for sellers to print off shipping labels. Option where sellers can put a description on each card, or just like in real life, no description needed and can put a price on the card with a photo and that’s it. Can be an option where you upload all the photos and every card in the “box” is $ per card. Easy and fast way to sell just like in real life at a card show. Jump to the top of the homepage. Different payment options for that. US map (accurate state borders, not abstract shapes) with shop pins If US map is too difficult to start with then just the seller's logo with a picture of a value box below it. Pins color-coded by category (sports / Pokémon / MTG / multi-category) Click or hover a pin shows a tooltip: shop name, city, specialty, listing count Drop announcement banners/strip at top (horizontally scrollable) Search bar (player/team/set/shop name) Category browse tiles at the bottom (Sports, Pokémon, MTG, Graded) Stats bar: total shops, total listings, live drops Shop profile / Value box browsing screen Shop header: avatar, name, city, specialty, verified badge Category tabs to filter that shop's inventory Search input + price filter dropdown + category filter dropdown Toggle between Flip view and Grid view Flip view: card stack visual (depth effect with cards behind), tap/click to flip the active card from back (VB-branded) to front (player name, set, price, condition badge, grade). Prev/next navigation with a "fan" animation. Action buttons: Buy Now, Make Offer, Save, Message Seller. Card metadata panel: condition, year, category, seller. Maybe kind of like flipping through photos on a dating app. Grid view: standard 3-4 column card grid, each card shows image/emoji, name, set, price, save heart icon Seller booth (dashboard) Header: shop avatar, name, city, verified badge, current plan/subscription status Stats row: active listings, monthly sales $, open offers, followers Drop announcement builder: title input, date picker, time picker, teaser text input, live preview of how it'll look to buyers, publish button Active listings list: thumbnail, name, meta info, price, status (Live / Offer Pending / Draft), edit/delete buttons "Add listing" button/flow: Step 1: Upload photo (camera, photo library, or bulk upload option) Step 2: AI-detected fields shown (player, year, set, grade) — powered by CollX API — with confidence score, all fields editable. Future possibility!!! Step 3: Set price, shown alongside a market price suggestion/range from CollX, toggle to add to a value box, category/team fields. Future possibility!!! Step 4: Publish (or save as draft) Step indicator showing progress through the 4-step upload flow Also needed but not yet prototyped (describe verbally / sketch if needed): Messaging/chat interface (buyer-seller threads) Offer management screen (accept/decline/counter) Watchlist screen Seller application/verification form (for new sellers applying) Buyer account settings Checkout flow (if handling payment processing for purchases, vs. just facilitating contact between buyer/seller) 6. Core functionality / logic needed User authentication with two roles (buyer / seller) Seller application + manual approval workflow (not self-serve signup) Database relationships: Users → Shops → Listings → Value Boxes; Listings ↔ Offers; Listings ↔ Messages; Shops ↔ Followers; Users ↔ Watchlist Stripe integration for recurring subscription billing (not one-time payments) Search/filter logic across multiple fields (text search + category + price range) Notification system: in-app + email when a followed shop posts a drop Map integration with custom pin placement (real lat/long coordinates, not abstract positions) Image upload and storage for card photos (Phase 2 / nice-to-have) CollX API integration for AI card detection from photos 7. Tech stack — open to recommendation, but my research points to: App builder: Bubble.io (no-code, but open to alternatives like Sharetribe or custom code if developer recommends and price works) Payments: Stripe (subscriptions) Maps: Google Maps API or Mapbox Email: Klaviyo or similar Card AI/pricing data: CollX API (Phase 2) Photo storage: Cloudinary or similar Eventual native app: Open to wrapping the web app via Median.co for App Store/Google Play once validated, rather than building native from day one 8. What I'm bringing to this meeting 3 fully interactive HTML/CSS/JS prototype files (every screen above, functional in any browser). Really don’t understand this part. Full written concept brief (features, screens, budget guidance, tech stack reasoning) Seller-facing pitch document (fee comparison math, used for recruiting sellers — shows the business model is thought through) Brand colors, fonts, and the "VB" mark already defined Domain + LLC already in place 9. Budget & timeline expectations Budget: $2,500–$4,500 for MVP (open to discussing fixed price vs. hourly) Timeline: No hard deadline, prioritizing finding the right developer over speed Phased approach preferred: Core features first (accounts, listings, map, Stripe subscriptions), flip animation and AI upload can follow as a second phase if needed to stay in budget 10. Questions I want to ask THEM in this meeting Have you built a marketplace with buyer/seller roles before? Can I see it? Have you integrated Stripe subscriptions (recurring) specifically, not just one-time checkout? How would you handle the map with custom pins — which tool/plugin, and have you done this before? How would you replicate the card flip + fan animation inside [chosen platform]? Is custom embedded code needed? What about the map idea? What's your recommended database structure for this, and does it match what I've outlined above? Will I be able to log in and manage/edit the app myself after you hand it off, or will I need you for every change? What's not included in your quote that I should expect to pay for separately (plugins, API costs, hosting)? What's your estimated timeline for an MVP with this scope? I need something that can be built and tested out for seller and buyers to use.

Description: I'm launching a modern-luxury wine brand built to feel nothing like a typical wine shop — editorial, confident, and beautifully restrained, closer to a high-end modern fashion or fragrance brand than a winery site. I'm looking for a designer with real taste to build my Shopify store on a premium theme template, customized so it feels distinctly ours — not a template anyone could recognize. Here's what's already done, so you can move fast: Logo and wine label — fully designed Brand colors, typography, and complete website copy — finalized and ready to drop in 2–3 reference sites I love — I'll share once we connect One product for now (a Pinot Noir), more coming — the build should scale cleanly to a small, growing catalog Scope: Recommend and set up a premium Shopify theme fitting a modern-luxury aesthetic Customize fully to my brand: logo, label imagery, color, type, spacing, layout Build these sections from my copy: Hero, Product, Founder's story, a simple "What's next" poll, and a "Join the club" email sign-up Mobile-first, clean, fast-loading Use AI-generated images as placeholders (some may later be swapped for real photography, some may remain, consider copyrights) Age verification + basic US alcohol-compliance setup (shipping/state limits) I can guide you. Payment and core app config, product upload (1 SKU) UX optimized to reduce friction and guide visitors toward purchase QA across devices before launch Aesthetic direction: Generous white space, gorgeous typography, restraint over decoration. The design should feel like a deliberate choice, not a default. I care deeply about craft — spacing, type, and the small details. Not in scope (please don't quote for these): Custom theme from scratch / headless Loyalty-points system and member logins (a later phase) Heavy scroll animations SEO or marketing To apply, please include: 2–3 links to premium/luxury Shopify stores you've built (live links, not screenshots) Your cost and timeline for the scope above One line: a theme you'd suggest for this brand, and why Applications without portfolio links won't be reviewed — I'm hiring on taste first.

OVERVIEW We're a full-service digital marketing & engineering agency seeking an experienced, hands-on Senior SEO specialist to own SEO delivery across a portfolio of B2B, lead-generation, e-commerce and local clients. This is an ongoing engagement — not a one-off project — and it combines both strategy and implementation. You'll set direction AND do the work. You'll run SEO end-to-end across multiple accounts: audits, keyword and competitor research, on-page and technical execution, content briefs, local SEO, backlink hygiene, and monthly reporting — while communicating confidently with clients and collaborating with our internal content and development teams. Several of our clients operate in complex, multi-stakeholder, enterprise environments, so the ability to navigate that context is essential.

Senior SEO Specialist Creative Heights | Remote Contract via Upwork About Creative Heights Creative Heights is a digital agency that builds, markets, and supports websites for a roster of growing businesses across multiple industries — including online education, home services, real estate operations, adventure travel, industrial manufacturing, and leadership training. Our work spans WordPress and WooCommerce development, paid advertising, content production, and full-stack marketing strategy. We're looking for a senior SEO Specialist to join our team as a long-term contractor and own SEO strategy and execution across our client accounts. The Role This is not an entry-level position and it is not a list-builder gig. We need someone who can walk into a client account, audit what's broken, build a prioritized roadmap, execute on it, and report results in plain language. You'll work directly with our team and occasionally with clients, so clarity and ownership matter as much as technical skill. You'll be SEO lead across 5–7 active client accounts, with workload split between technical SEO, on-page optimization, content strategy, link building, and — critically — Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for AI search products like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. We are looking for someone who knows how to do things and has actually done things. Theory is cheap. We want a practitioner who has shipped work and gotten measurable results. We will ask for specific references and we will call them to verify. What You'll Do • Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) / AI Search. Get our clients cited, surfaced, and recommended inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and other AI search products. You should have a clear strategy and a playbook you can implement from day one — not a thesis on what GEO might become, but a working approach with proof it moves the needle. • Technical SEO audits and remediation. Crawl issues, indexation problems, Core Web Vitals, schema, redirects, canonical issues, internal linking — across mostly WordPress sites (some with LearnDash, WooCommerce, FunnelKit). • Keyword research and content strategy. Identify ranking opportunities, build content briefs, and work with our content team or write yourself when the project calls for it. • On-page optimization. Title tags, meta descriptions, headings, internal linking, content depth, entity coverage. We expect you to know modern SEO, not 2015 SEO. • Link building. Run real link building campaigns — digital PR, HARO/Qwoted-style work, niche placements, broken link reclamation, strategic guest contributions. Earned links, not bought lists. • Local SEO. Several clients are regional or multi-location. Google Business Profile management, citations, local landing page strategy. • AI-powered workflows. Use Claude (or comparable AI tools) to analyze data at scale, accelerate audits, batch content briefs, parse SERPs, and generally move faster without sacrificing quality. We expect you to have already built workflows like this, not to be exploring them for the first time on our dime. • Reporting and analysis. Pull data from GSC, GA4, Google Tag Manager, Ahrefs/SEMrush, and our reporting stack (Windsor.ai). Translate numbers into clear narratives clients can act on. • Strategic recommendations. Tell us what's working, what isn't, and what to do next. We value people who push back with data over people who just execute tickets. • Collaboration with paid and dev teams. SEO doesn't live in a silo at our shop. You'll coordinate with our PPC and development work to make sure technical changes don't break rankings and that paid and organic strategy reinforce each other. Must-Haves • 5+ years of hands-on SEO experience, including agency or multi-client environments. • Demonstrated results getting clients ranked, cited, or surfaced inside AI search products (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, etc.). A clear GEO strategy and a playbook you can implement from day one. • Past experience running link building campaigns with demonstrated, verifiable results. Be ready to show what you built, how you built it, and what it produced. • Demonstrated wins on technical SEO projects — not just "I worked on the team that did this," but specific issues you diagnosed and fixed with measurable outcomes. • Strong WordPress fluency. You should know your way around Yoast/Rank Math, plugin conflicts that affect SEO, and how to communicate with developers about technical fixes. • Solid command of GA4, Google Search Console, Google Tag Manager, and at least one of Ahrefs, SEMrush, or Sistrix. • Working AI productivity stack. You have built workflows around Claude (or other LLMs) to analyze SEO data at scale — SERP parsing, content gap analysis, log file review, bulk audits, brief generation. Show us the workflow, not just the tool list. • Comfort with structured data (schema.org), redirects, server-side issues (robots.txt, sitemaps, status codes), and Core Web Vitals. • Excellent written English. You'll be writing reports, content briefs, and sometimes client-facing emails. • Self-directed work style. We tell you the goal, you build the path. • Verifiable references. We will ask for specific references from past clients or employers, and we will call them. If that's a problem, this isn't the role for you. Nice to Have • Experience with LearnDash or other LMS platforms (one of our largest accounts is education- focused). • WooCommerce SEO experience — product schema, faceted navigation, category page optimization. • Familiarity with Windsor.ai, Looker Studio, or BigQuery for reporting. • Basic comfort with HTML/CSS and reading PHP (you don't need to write code, but you should be able to read a template and understand what it's doing). • Local/multi-location SEO at scale (state-by-state or city-by-city expansion). • Experience with content production workflows — briefs, editorial calendars, working with writers. What We're Not Looking For • Agencies or resellers. We want to work directly with the person doing the work. • Generalists who do "a little SEO" alongside five other services. • Anyone whose strategy starts with mass directory submissions, PBNs, or AI-generated content at scale. • People who can talk about GEO and AI search but can't show specific work that produced specific results. • Anyone unable or unwilling to provide checkable references. Engagement Details • Type: Long-term contract. We're not hiring for a one-off project. • Hours: Starting around 20 hours/week with room to grow into a larger ongoing engagement based on fit. • Schedule: Flexible, but we need overlap with US business hours (Central Time) for client calls and team coordination. • Communication: Slack for daily work, Zoom for weekly check-ins, project management in our internal tools. • Rate: Open. Tell us your rate and we'll evaluate against the value you bring. How to Apply In your proposal, please include: • A short intro — who you are and why this role interests you. • Two specific SEO wins from the past 18 months. Include the problem, what you did, and the measurable result. Skip the case studies that are just screenshots of traffic going up; we want the why behind the curve. • One specific GEO / AI search win. What client, what platform (ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, etc.), what you did, and how you measured it. • One link building campaign you ran. The strategy, the execution, and the verifiable outcome — links earned, referring domain quality, and any traffic or ranking impact. • A short description of an AI-powered workflow you've built and use regularly (Claude or otherwise). What problem it solves, what it replaced, and roughly how much time it saves. • Your typical reporting cadence and what your client communication looks like. • Two references we can call. Name, role, company, and the work you did for them. We will actually call. • To confirm you read this carefully, start your proposal with the word "Compass." We read every proposal that follows the instructions. Generic boilerplate gets passed over. Looking forward to working with the right person. — The Creative Heights Team
