MyJobQuote • Remote • 5d ago

Are you an SEO specialist who enjoys working hands-on with content?

We’re looking for a freelance SEO professional to join our team and enhance the performance of various types of home and garden content using sound SEO principles and clear, well-written copy.

The focus of this role is improving and maintaining existing content based on search performance and user intent, rather than producing new articles from scratch.

This is a flexible, remote freelance role for around 10 hours per week, with the potential for ongoing work.

What You’ll Do

Independently rewrite and enhance existing content.
Audit and optimise existing content to improve rankings, structure, and user engagement.
Use keyword research and performance data to identify new opportunities and inform content changes.
Implement on-page SEO improvements, including metadata, internal linking, H1/H2 structure, and schema markup.
Update outdated content to align with current SEO trends and search intent.
Identify issues and opportunities that can be acted upon in future updates.
Make informed recommendations on what should and should not be changed.

What We’re Looking For

Proven experience improving the performance of existing content through on-page SEO and informed content changes.
Strong understanding of keyword research, search intent, and ranking factors.
Confident using SEO tools (e.g. Google Search Console, Semrush, Ahrefs) to analyse performance and guide content decisions.
Excellent written English and editing skills. Able to improve and enhance written content effectively.
Ability to work independently and make informed decisions. You’ll also need to be able to follow briefs where provided (especially during onboarding).
Strong communication and ability to consistently hit agreed deadlines.
Basic HTML skills and experience implementing SEO changes directly on websites.
Familiarity with CMS platforms.

Why Work With Us?

Ongoing freelance work with consistent hours.
Flexible working that’s ideal for freelancers with multiple clients.
Competitive freelance rates based on experience.
Supportive team.

How to Apply

If you think you’re a good fit for this, please send us your CV.

Please include links to sites you’ve worked on within the last 1–2 years, ideally highlighting pages where you’ve improved existing content performance.
