FAQs
What is SEO for recruitment agencies?
Recruitment SEO is a specialized search marketing strategy that optimizes agency websites to rank for candidate and client-focused keywords. Unlike general SEO, it specifically targets Google for Jobs visibility, optimizes job board structures, and builds E-E-A-T signals to attract hiring managers and active job seekers without relying on paid ads.
How long does recruitment SEO take to work?
You can typically see technical wins and indexation improvements within the first 30 days. However, substantial traffic growth and lead generation usually require 3 to 6 months of consistent execution. This timeline depends on your current domain authority, the competitiveness of your niche (e.g., Tech vs. Education), and the technical health of your site.
What is included in your Monthly Recruitment SEO Plans?
Our monthly retainers cover the four pillars of successful SEO: Technical SEO (fixing crawlability and schema), On-page SEO (optimizing landing pages and job descriptions), Content Strategy (building topical authority), and Digital PR (acquiring high-quality backlinks). It's a holistic service designed to lower your cost-per-acquisition for candidates and clients.
What is a Recruitment SEO Sprint?
An SEO Sprint is a high-impact, short-term intervention designed to fix critical issues fast. It's ideal for agencies that aren't ready for a retainer but need to resolve technical debt, implement JobPosting schema correctly, or recover from a traffic drop. It delivers a specific outcome within a set timeframe.
How does link building help recruitment websites?
Link building increases your Domain Authority, which is a primary trust signal for Google. By securing backlinks from relevant industry publications, universities, or business news sites, we prove to search engines that your agency is a credible market leader. This directly correlates to higher rankings for competitive terms like "Executive Search London" or "SaaS Recruiters."
Do you offer one-off SEO audits?
Yes, we provide comprehensive Recruitment SEO Audits. We analyze your site using industry-standard tools like Screaming Frog and Semrush to identify technical failures, content gaps, and structural issues holding you back. You receive a prioritized roadmap to fix errors and unlock growth, independent of our monthly services.
How does SEO get me more candidates?
SEO automates candidate acquisition by ranking your specific job pages and salary guides at the top of Google and Google for Jobs. By using correct structured data and keyword optimization, we ensure your vacancies appear exactly when candidates search, reducing your reliance on expensive aggregators like Indeed or LinkedIn Recruiter.
Can SEO help me win new clients?
Yes. When hiring managers search for agencies, they rarely look past page one. Ranking high for commercial keywords establishes your agency as the authority in your sector. High visibility combined with strong informational content (like salary reports) builds trust, ensuring you're the first agency they call when they have a mandate.
What is the difference between SEO and Google Ads for recruiters?
Google Ads is renting visibility; SEO is owning it. Ads provide immediate traffic but stop yielding results the moment you stop paying. SEO is a capital asset that builds compounding value over time, lowering your average cost-per-application and ensuring long-term brand dominance in search results.
Which SEO service is right for my agency?
Start with an Audit if you're unsure where you stand. Choose a Sprint if you have a specific technical hurdle or site migration. Select a Monthly Plan if you want sustainable, year-over-year growth in placements and revenue. We can advise on the best route based on your current visibility and commercial goals.
