Part-Time SEO & Ads Specialist

I’m looking for a detail-oriented SEO assistant to help audit, analyze, and optimize an established local media website with 500+ articles already published.

This is not a blog-writing role. I’m looking for someone who can:

- Audit existing posts for basic and intermediate SEO opportunities
- Recommend fixes (meta titles, image names, alt text, headers, internal links, keyword clarity, etc.)
- Analyze and recommend improvements for site structure, image optimization, and page speed improvements.
- Implement improvements inside WordPress (after approval)
- Provide advice for effective paid ad strategy (Social Media, Google, etc.) and implement recommendations
- Provide weekly reports to show progress, keyword ranking, etc.

The right person will:

- Know how to use WordPress, Google Analytics, and RankMath
- Understand paid ad strategies
- Be comfortable working inside an already-published ecosystem
- Spot low-hanging fruit and explain what will move the needle
- Understand that I want strategic improvements on a lean budget, not fluff reports or busywork
- Show measurable improvements in performance

I’m looking for a proactive problem-solver who can not only identify SEO issues but also implement fixes and track progress through analytics tools.

Details:

- Trial Period: First 60 days (with increased hours for setup)
- Hours:
- Month 1: 20-30 hours (initial setup)
- Month 2 onward: 10 hours per month (maintenance)

Rate: $8/hour
