  • 5. Reporting & Collaboration

  • Maintain detailed records of outreach efforts in spreadsheets or CRM tools.
  • Collaborate with SEO and content teams to align link-building strategy with broader SEO goals.
  • Provide weekly status reports showing number of outreach emails sent, replies received, links gained, and overall progress.

    We offer a range of perks designed to support both your work and life outside of work :

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Company-sponsored 401(k) plan with matching
  • Flexible work schedule - work when and where you're most productive, as long as deliverables are met
  • Pet-friendly benefits - reimbursement of up to $500 for adoption fees or vaccinations if you choose to welcome a pet into your life
  • Your choice of equipment to set you up for success (Mac or PC - your call)
  • Team outings and optional social events throughout the year
  • A welcome plant to brighten your workspace
  • If you're passionate about ethical link building and enjoy creating lasting professional connections, we'd love to hear from you.
