The list above contains many SEO related jobs, some of the jobs are repetitive due to the fact some of the sites use common or cross-platform job boards.  Regardless, the list above gives you an outlet for finding your SEO jobs, projects, and clients.  If you can’t find and land a job after going through the list above then its either 2 things…you didn’t try hard enough or you need to change careers!

Search engine optimization & marketing is in high demand and it the demand is growing rapidly.  SEO/SEM will always be a high demand industry due to the fact that there will always be much more websites than there are SEO (especially good SEO).  If you can prove yourself in the industry and build your brand then you are pretty much set.  My suggestion to you is that you study your craft, pick up a few SEO projects to expose your talent (don’t worry about pay in the beginning), and once you have built a portfolio and client list of at least 3-5 clients shop your resume and cover letter (letter of interest) around to prospects and employers.   Land your job!

I’m personally not interested in working for a company as an employee, I will only take on projects and/or jobs as an SEO consultant.  I have to be able to set my own hours and work at my pace.  I may one day decide to get back in the workforce, but that is not my goal or plan (especially at this point in my life when things are looking up for my business), but I never say never!

As you can see from the list above there is always plenty of prospects looking for SEO services, so you should never have to resort to sending emails to potential clients (or spamming).  Even when the list above doesn’t work out, you still have direct mail marketing, door-to-door marketing, telemarketing (not sure of the laws surrounding that), or vertical marketing.  Vertical marketing is where I would say its “okay” to send emails.  Basically, when I speak of vertical marketing it is aligining yourself with other markets who are closely related to your industry but are not direct competitors, this would be companies which perform web design, web development, web hosting, etc.  Many of these type companies receive request for SEO services, but have to turn them away because they do not offer such services nor do they have any reputable businesses to send the client to. Most of these companies will be happy to swap referrals, resell your services, or refer clients to you. The worst thing is turning a client away because you can’t perform what they need or don’t have a relationship with a company who can provide what the client needs. Same with SEO, if you don’t provide web design you will get request for web design and will need someone to refer your clients to, use this leverage in your sales pitch to your vertical markets.

Now go find your SEO Job! Good luck to you.
