## About this task

This online travel company with resorts (11–50 employees) is looking for a manager SEO Specialist for a monthly bundle of recurring tasks, 8–12 h a month. Briefs that tell writers what a page must cover to rank.

A named list of recurring items keeps the month predictable for both sides. It works in travel and hospitality, where demand is seasonal.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United States works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected.

## What you deliver

- Write 15 SEO briefs with search intent, outline, entities and internal links.

- A running log of open questions, reviewed at the start of each week

- A month-end summary with hours used against the cap

- The monthly list of items completed, each with a link to the result

## What a month looks like

- Start of month: the company shares the items and the priorities

- Mid-month: progress check of 15 minutes

- Month end: hours used against the cap, results and open items

**Duration:** 12 weeks, with a monthly hours cap. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.

## Tools

Ahrefs Google Docs

## Who fits

- 7-12 years of hands-on work as an SEO Specialist, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Ahrefs and Google Docs

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

### Nice to have

- Experience in a similar industry

- Used to short written handovers

## Not included

- Managing other contractors or employees

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- On-call availability outside the agreed window

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
