- Optimize images, page speed, and Core Web Vitals in coordination with the dev team
- Ensure mobile-friendliness and responsive optimization across client sites
Technical SEO
- Perform technical SEO audits (crawl errors, indexing issues, duplicate content, broken links, redirects, canonicalization, XML sitemaps, robots.txt)

- Build and maintain relationships with bloggers, publishers, and partner sites for backlink acquisition
- Monitor backlink profiles and disavow harmful links when necessary

- Drive local citation building and manage local review/rating strategies

- Support the SEO Manager in building AEO-specific content frameworks (structured Q&A formats, concise definitional content, authoritative sourcing)
- Stay current on how generative AI search tools source and cite content, and adapt execution accordingly
Content Collaboration
- Brief and coordinate with content writers on SEO-optimized blogs, landing pages, and website copy
- Ensure all content aligns with keyword strategy, search intent, and on-page best practices
- Support content calendar planning for organic growth
Analytics, Reporting & Tools
- Track and report on keyword rankings, organic traffic, conversions, and other KPIs using Google Analytics, Google Search Console, SEMrush, Ahrefs, Moz, or similar tools
- Prepare regular performance reports and dashboards for internal review and client presentations
