JOB OVERVIEW

# SEO Copywriter (Contract-to-Hire) — Digital Marketing Agency

Type - Contract-to-hire (start as contractor, potential to move into a permanent role)
Hours: ~20 hours/week during contract phase
Pay: $8-10/hour, based on experience
Location:Remote
Experience: 2–4 years in SEO copywriting

## About Us

Makarios Marketing is a digital marketing and SEO agency serving 25–30 active clients across a wide range of industries — ecommerce, home services, medical, legal, real estate, and more. We move fast, we care about quality, and we build long-term client relationships by delivering content that actually ranks and converts.

## The Role

We're looking for a copywriter who understands that SEO copy is more than stuffing keywords into paragraphs. You'll be writing content that needs to rank in search AND persuade a real human to take action — service pages, location pages, local SEO mainly, ecommerce collection pages, blog posts, landing pages, and ad copy.

This starts as a 20 hr/week contract role. If you're reliable, fast, and your work consistently hits the mark, this becomes a permanent position with more hours and responsibility.

## What You'll Be Writing

- SEO service pages and city/location landing pages for local businesses
- Ecommerce collection and category page copy
- Blog posts targeting specific keywords and search intent
- Content for high-authority third-party placements (parasite SEO) — you should understand how writing for someone else's domain differs from writing for a client's own site
- Ad copy and conversion-focused landing pages (Google Ads, paid social)
- On-page SEO elements: meta titles, meta descriptions, header structures

## Must-Have Skills (please don't apply without these)

- Proven copywriting ability — you can write persuasive, natural-sounding copy that sells, not just "content." Portfolio required.
- Working SEO knowledge — search intent, keyword placement, header hierarchy, E-E-A-T, and how to write for both rankings and readers
- Internal linking strategy — you understand anchor text best practices, site architecture, and how to weave internal links into copy naturally (not bolted on as an afterthought)
- Familiarity with parasite SEO — you know what it is, why it's used, and how to write content for high-authority third-party platforms
- Ad and landing page copywriting — you can shift from informational SEO content to direct-response copy when the project calls for it

## Nice-to-Have (bonus points)

- Experience writing for multiple industries/niches
- Familiarity with tools like Semrush, Ahrefs, SE Ranking, Surfer, or Google Search Console
- Understanding of local SEO and Google Business Profile content
- Experience with CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify, Magento, Squarespace)
- Basic understanding of CRO principles

## What Working With Us Looks Like

- You'll create clear briefs with target keywords, internal linking targets, and reference pages
- You will write content for other sites to help pages rank
- Direct feedback and fast turnaround expectations
- Consistent, ongoing work across a stable client roster (this isn't a one-off gig)
- A team that communicates via Slack and respects your time

## How to Apply

1. Start your application with the word **"Anchor"** so we know you read this posting.
2. Include 2–3 writing samples that show range — ideally at least one SEO page (service, location, or collection page) and one piece of direct-response copy (ad, landing page, or sales page).
3. Briefly describe your experience with internal linking and parasite SEO in 2–3 sentences each. No fluff — just show us you actually understand these.
4. Include your hourly rate you want
5. Also what local seo work you've done thats our main IC

Applications that skip these steps will not be reviewed.
