Recruitment SEO Services
Our Clients
Recruitment websites built on RecruiterWEB, Volcanic, Venn, SourceFlow, WordPress, or custom platforms all rank when the SEO is done correctly. The platform is rarely the blocker. Thin content, missing schema, broken internal linking, and slow page loads are the blockers. We handle all five.
Three problems we solve, mapped to three ways to work with us:
- "We have no marketing resource and SEO is buried." Full-service retainer. We own the programme end-to-end, including predictive AI visibility via the Vanguard Protocol on Elite retainers.
Outcome: more inbound candidates and clients without adding headcount. - "We have an in-house marketer but no SEO direction." Strategic consultancy. We audit, analyse, and build the documented roadmap. Your team executes against clear milestones with monthly accountability.
Outcome: faster execution at lower fixed cost than a full retainer. - "We want senior SEO oversight without handing the whole programme over." SEO Governance at £275/mo. Monthly strategic input, performance review, and direction-setting from Dan Jones.
Outcome: decisions stay in-house, expertise sits behind them.

FAQs
What does recruitment SEO cost?
Recruitment SEO at Kaizen SEO is priced transparently from £99/mo for content, £795 one-off for a Starter Roadmap, and £1,495/mo for a full Core Retainer. Three retainer tiers go up to £3,495/mo for Elite with predictive AI visibility. Recruitment website plus SEO bundles start at £398/mo. Full pricing is published on our pricing page.
It depends on what you have in-house and where the bottleneck is. No marketing resource at all means a Retainer. In-house marketer who needs direction means SEO Strategy or Governance. Existing site with rankings to defend means SEO Growth Strategy at £1,795. New site launching means a Migration Sprint. Tired website means a Recruitment Website bundle. A 15-min triage call clarifies the route fast.
Technical wins and indexation improvements appear inside 30 days. Long-tail rankings appear within weeks of consistent content publication. Competitive commercial terms in established markets typically take three to six months. Domain authority, niche competitiveness, and current technical health all affect the timeline. The 90-Day Sprint compresses this where the budget allows.
AI visibility means being cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity when candidates and clients ask AI tools for recruitment recommendations. In 2026, more discovery happens inside AI assistants than on traditional search engines for many B2B queries. Kaizen SEO retainers include AI citation work and monitoring as standard, with the Vanguard Protocol on Elite tier covering predictive AI visibility.
Yes. Three engagement models work for in-house teams. SEO Governance at £275/mo gives your team monthly strategic oversight and direction-setting. SEO Strategy products give them a documented roadmap to execute against. Full retainers with mentorship built in upskill your marketers while we run the technical and off-page programme.
