Link Building Specialist (Remote)

Link building Specialist — Space'M Online: Results Above Promises At Space'M Online, we don't chase links. We build authority — relevance-first, market by market — for e-commerce brands that want to grow through search and actually keep growing. We're looking for a hands-on Link building Specialist who knows the full spectrum — from editorial outreach and digital PR-style campaigns to platform-based placements and partnership building — and who can execute across all of it without cutting corners. This isn't a "send 200 emails and hope" role. You're a structured, quality-driven specialist who turns SEO priorities into real placements, keeps the pipeline clean, and knows exactly what a good link looks like before it goes live. Your Mission: Own link building execution across multiple international client campaigns — prospecting, qualifying, outreaching, buying, verifying, and documenting — end to end, at a consistently high standard. What you'll do: Execute link building campaigns across all major approaches: editorial outreach, digital PR-style campaigns, partnerships, linkable assets, and platform/paid placements Prospect and qualify opportunities using the right quality signals — topical fit, editorial context, traffic/visibility signals, and risk checks — before committing to any placement Run structured outreach where it fits the strategy: strong angles, clean personalisation, disciplined follow-ups, professional communication Source and manage platform-based placements: evaluate offers, negotiate price vs. quality, and make buying decisions that make SEO and business sense Build and maintain long-term publisher and partner relationships for repeat placements, better terms, and smoother collaboration over time Perform post-placement quality control on every link: live, correct anchor, right context, indexable, and documented cleanly Keep your pipeline structured and transparent in our tooling — tracking, statuses, next steps, and weekly output Collaborate async-first via Slack, Loom, and Monday to keep delivery tight and predictable KPIs: Placement volume · Relevance & quality score · Post-placement pass rate · Pipeline health · Price vs. quality judgement Who You Are: You have solid hands-on experience in link building/off-page SEO and can explain what quality looks like — and why a placement doesn't make the cut You understand the full range of link building methods and know when to use each one based on strategy, niche, and budget You evaluate every opportunity through the right lens: topical fit, editorial context, sustainability, and risk — not just DR and price You work in a structured way: clean pipeline, clear priorities, predictable weekly output, zero dropped threads You take ownership of outcomes — not just tasks. If something isn't right, you flag it and fix it You communicate clearly in an async-first environment: updates are clean, handovers are documented, nothing lives only in your head You do your own work — no outsourcing, no agencies, no shortcuts English fluency is required; Dutch is a strong plus Not for you if you treat link building as a numbers game, can't explain your quality judgement clearly, or need someone to manage your pipeline for you.
