Company presentation
An international iGaming affiliate business develops and scales SEO-driven websites, monetising organic traffic through casino and betting operator partnerships.
Its current markets include Poland and Hungary, with plans to expand across additional Tier 1 and Tier 2 markets. The business operates with a lean team and a highly automated approach, using expired domains, parasite SEO, one-page websites, rapid migrations and gray/black-hat methods.
Role overview
The company is seeking a senior hands-on SEO operator to launch and grow a new black-hat SEO business unit.
Reporting directly to the CEO, the Head of Black-Hat SEO will own execution, budget allocation and P&L. Initially, this is predominantly an individual contributor role with substantial use of AI and automation. A small team may be built later as the unit develops.
Key responsibilities include:
- Co-design the unit’s growth strategy with the CEO and execute it personally.
- Manage the current monthly budget of US$30,000–80,000 across domains, content and tooling.
- Build an AI-supported roadmap for launching and developing hundreds of websites per month.
- Execute link-building strategies and manage domains, redirects, migrations and testing.
- Identify and test opportunities across multiple GEOs.
- Track costs, rankings, traffic, FTDs, revenue and overall unit performance.
- Scale approaches that demonstrate positive commercial results.
- Document processes and establish an operating model that can support a small team over time.
The supplied brief targets initial FTDs within 10–20 days and profitability within 4–5 months. Measurement definitions and milestones will need to be agreed.
Requirements
- A proven track record in competitive black-hat SEO environments.
- Deep practical experience with domain auctions, drop-catching and expired-domain analysis.
- Experience operating website networks at scale, including footprint hygiene across registrars, hosting and DNS.
- Hands-on capability in domains, redirects, migrations, outreach and experimentation.
- Ability to use AI and automation to increase execution capacity.
- Strong commercial judgement, including budget management, ROI analysis and traffic monetisation.
- An entrepreneurial approach, autonomy and ownership of business outcomes.
- Fast, disciplined decision-making, supported by clear reporting and documentation.
Company offers
- Fully remote working.
- US$68,000–120,000 gross annual base salary, depending on experience.
- Profit share once the unit is profitable; detailed terms to be agreed.
- Direct collaboration with the CEO.
- Ownership of execution, budget allocation and unit P&L.
- A current operating budget of US$30,000–80,000 per month, with potential for further growth.
