About the role
About the company Turning marketing into a market-domination weapon, iSpeedToLead created a new category — the marketplace for future customers. Businesses shop for leads as they shop for products in e-commerce: they can see key details before buying, with more transparency, control, and predictable outcomes. iSpeedToLead helps real estate wholesalers, investors, flippers, and increasingly agents buy motivated home-seller leads — homeowners who want to sell their property — through a live lead marketplace.
Why this role exists iSpeedToLead ranks well for its own brand name, but has very limited visibility beyond branded search today. The company currently ranks for roughly 50 keywords, while direct competitors rank for around 3,900, and that gap is especially visible in the non-branded real estate lead-generation terms that bring in new customers. We need someone who treats SEO as a strategy discipline, not a link-buying function — someone who can build a real keyword strategy for our niche, close the gap against named competitors, and get technical fixes actually shipped, not just recommended.
Role overview We are looking for a Senior SEO Manager to own the search growth layer of our business across both classic SEO and AI search visibility. You will build a true keyword strategy for the niche, improve technical foundations, strengthen our visibility in AI search, and make sure high-intent commercial pages attract qualified non-branded traffic. This is a high-ownership role for someone who can connect strategy, execution, reporting, and business outcomes — not someone who treats SEO as a narrow content or backlink function.
What You'll Be Doing: • Build a prioritized keyword strategy for our niche: real estate lead generation, focused on buyer-intent terms rather than just branded or broad SEO traffic. • Map category, comparison, wholesaler, investor, and agent lead-generation searches, benchmarked against named competitors such as PropStream, RealEstateBees, PropertyLeads, and LeadZolo. • Own technical SEO fundamentals including title tags, meta descriptions, alt text, schema/structured data, canonical tags, crawlability, and related site-health basics. • Continue and expand AEO / GEO work so classic SEO and AI-search visibility improve together rather than one being neglected in favor of the other. • Shape content and page-level strategy for the site’s highest-intent commercial pages, especially the marketplace, landing pages, and signup funnel. • Run regular competitive and keyword-gap analysis using Ahrefs, Semrush, or equivalent tools, and report on actual market position rather than vanity growth percentages. • Work directly with the dev team by writing clear, dev-ready tickets and following through until technical fixes actually ship. • Build reporting that clearly separates non-branded keyword and traffic growth from branded traffic growth and AI-citation counts so leadership sees the real acquisition picture.
