JOB OVERVIEW

This is a short-term project with potential for ongoing work if results are good.

We are looking for an experienced SEO specialist to help our direct booking website rank on Google for high-intent keywords.

Our business provides contractor accommodation in Brighton & Aylesbury, and our goal is to generate direct enquiries and reduce reliance on Airbnb and ---------- .

This is not basic SEO — we are looking for someone who understands how to rank a local service-based business and drive real enquiries.

Responsibilities:
- Keyword research focused on contractor and long-stay accommodation
- On-page SEO optimisation (titles, meta descriptions, headings)
- Improve website structure for SEO and user flow
- Basic technical SEO (indexing, page setup, internal linking)
- Provide a simple content strategy (blog topics or pages to rank)

Requirements:
- Proven experience ranking websites on Google
- Strong understanding of local SEO
- Ability to explain what changes are being made clearly
- Focus on results, not just tasks

Nice to have:
- Experience with property, serviced accommodation, or hospitality
- Experience with Lodgify or similar platforms

Please include:
- Examples of websites you have ranked
- Keywords you have successfully ranked for
- A short explanation of how you would get a new site to page 1
- Your expected timeline for results

Important:
Please start your application with the word “Brighton” so I know you’ve read this.
