SkyBridge Creations is hiring · Charlotte

SEO Analyst, Charlotte

Local SEO done by hand, for four agency brands

A full-time, remote SEO job for someone who lives in the Charlotte metro. You'd do the hands-on SEO across our four agency brands: Google Business Profiles and citations first, then on-page, technical and off-page work.

  • WhereRemote, Charlotte metro (NC or SC side)
  • Experience2 to 4 years of hands-on SEO
  • Who can applyIndividuals only

We only hire individuals. Applications from agencies, staffing firms, recruiters or companies are marked as spam and the sender is blocked. Every application is checked for automated submission and read by a person. And we never ask candidates for a fee, deposit or payment. Anyone who does isn't us.

What the job is

SkyBridge Creations builds websites and runs local marketing for small businesses and contractors in North and South Carolina. The same team runs three other agency brands (ByteZero, California Law Firm SEO and Law Firm Marketing Texas), building sites and running SEO, AI search visibility and Google Ads for small businesses and law firms in the US and Canada. We rank our own sites the same way we rank clients' sites.

This job is the hands-on SEO behind those sites, centered on US local search: Google Business Profiles, citations and the map pack for service businesses in the Carolinas and beyond. It's manual and careful. Listings get submitted by a person, pages get fixed one at a time, and every change gets logged. If you like getting details exactly right, and you get a kick out of watching a page climb in Search Console because of something you did, you'll fit in.

It's fully remote, but you need to live in the Charlotte metro, on the NC or SC side, so you can meet a client or a teammate in person when that helps.

01

Local SEO and citations

  • Optimize and look after Google Business Profiles: categories, services, service areas, hours, photos and posts
  • Track map pack and local rankings for every city each business serves
  • Submit and maintain listings by hand on US directories, review sites and industry sites
  • Keep name, address, phone and website identical on every listing
  • Log each submission, who owns the login and where verification stands in a shared sheet
  • Find and clean up duplicate, outdated or mismatched listings
02

On-page SEO

  • Write and fix title tags, meta descriptions and heading structure
  • Give each page one primary keyword and flag cannibalization
  • Add internal links, alt text and FAQ content where it helps
  • Check structured data (LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage) with Google's tools
03

Technical SEO

  • Crawl sites with Screaming Frog or something like it and report what you find
  • Work in Search Console: indexing, canonicals, redirects, sitemaps, robots.txt
  • Run Lighthouse and PageSpeed checks and log Core Web Vitals problems
  • Check every fix after each deploy and write down the result
04

Off-page SEO

  • Manual outreach for citations, local resource pages and unlinked mentions
  • Backlink audits: find spammy and toxic links and prepare disavow files
  • Reclaim broken links and earn new ones through real relationships
  • A short written log each week of what you did and what moved in Search Console
