Agency context

Built for agency work, not generic remote hiring.

SEO accounts create pressure around ranking movement, content delivery, technical blockers, link velocity, and slow client patience. Nearshore works when the operator can use US working-hour overlap to keep clients clear while the work compounds.

Working-call vetting
  • A live working-call exercise around delayed content, a technical blocker, and a client asking what changed.
  • Tool familiarity across Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, GA4, and project boards.
  • Prompt judgment for turning messy SEO context into client-ready output without inventing facts.
AI month one
  • SEO account recaps from rank movement, content status, and technical notes.
  • Client-risk summaries when delivery delays or visibility changes need explanation.
  • Workflow documentation for recurring audits, content approvals, and reporting cycles.

Every placement includes 4 live 1-on-1 AI instructor sessions in the first four weeks post-placement.
