Position: SEO Specialist
Type: Freelance/Contract
Duration: Project-based with potential for ongoing work
Location: Remote

I am seeking an SEO expert to help execute a back link strategy focused on leveraging competitors who have ceased operations but still maintain a strong SEO presence. The primary goal is to identify valuable back links to their content, replicate their high-performing blogs with enhanced content, and reach out to referring domains to suggest linking to my site instead.
Key Responsibilities:

    Back link Analysis:
        While I can conduct some analysis myself and provide target posts and referring domains, I am open to having a freelancer handle this aspect if it makes more sense to do so. Your insights on this would be valuable.

    Content Replication:
        Plan and create high-quality, SEO optimized content based on the most-linked blog posts of the competitors.
        I am open to leveraging AI to produce this content, as the initial goal is to secure back links rather than immediate SEO ranking. If we successfully acquire these back links, we can later implement better SEO practices to enhance the uniqueness of the content for improved rankings.

    Outreach:
        Execute a personalized outreach strategy using the "skyscraper technique." This involves contacting referring domains to highlight the inactivity of the competitor and offering my content as a superior alternative.

Potential for Expansion:

If successful in this project, there may be opportunities for broader SEO initiatives in the future.
Requirements:

    Proven experience in executing back link strategies and conducting outreach.
    Strong understanding of SEO principles and content optimization.
    Ability to create compelling, high-quality content, possibly utilizing AI tools.
    Excellent communication skills for effective outreach and relationship building.
    Familiarity with back link analysis tools and SEO reporting.

Application Process:

If you believe you have the skills and expertise to execute this strategy effectively, please respond with:

    A brief overview of your experience in SEO and back link strategies.
    Examples of previous successful projects, particularly those involving back link acquisition and content creation.
    Your thoughts on handling the back link analysis component—whether you would prefer to take this on or work with my provided targets.

Please ensure your response reflects an understanding of the requirements and is not a generic copy/paste reply. I look forward to your thoughtful response!

Feel free to adjust any details to better align with your vision!
