Before you meet anyone

How we screen SEO & AEO specialists.

Every candidate is checked against the work, your tools and your hours. You only interview the people who pass.

See screened candidates
  1. The duties, not the title

    We review the SEO work each candidate has actually done: keyword research, on-page and technical fixes, content briefs and reporting.

  2. Search and AI answers

    We screen for people who have structured content, FAQs and schema for AI answer engines, not just classic rankings.

  3. Your SEO tools

    Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, from Semrush and Ahrefs to Search Console and your CMS.

  4. How they write

    Briefs, page updates and reports are written work, so we screen written English for the role.

  5. Background and medical checks

    Every hire passes background and medical checks before day one. They’re part of the process, not an extra.

  6. Then you interview the shortlist

    You meet the candidates who pass, ask your own questions, and choose who joins your team.

One monthly fee per employee.

No placement fee. No separate hiring charges. Everything you need to get a new hire started on your team is inside the fee.

A local hire, salary plus overhead$1,375/wk
A Remote Employee$473/wk

Questions about hiring SEO & AEO specialists.

How hiring through Remote Employee works for this role.

They work to get your pages found, in search results and in AI-generated answers: researching keywords and questions, fixing on-page and technical issues, structuring content and schema, and reporting on rankings and traffic.

AEO (answer engine optimization) shapes your content so AI assistants and answer engines can understand it and cite it in their answers. SEO targets rankings in search results. Much of the work overlaps: clear answers, good structure, and schema markup.

The ones you already use. Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, typically Google Search Console, Google Analytics, Semrush, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, and your CMS, such as WordPress or Shopify.

Writing briefs and updating existing pages is part of the role. If you need full articles too, tell us and we screen for candidates who have written them.

You give them their own logins to your CMS, Search Console, and analytics, with the permissions you choose. They work on equipment we provide, and every hire passes background and medical checks before they start.

It depends on the role, experience, and skills you’re looking for.

Once we know who you need, we’ll give you the cost upfront. There’s a one-time setup fee per employee, followed by a monthly fee. Businesses typically save 50–70% compared with hiring a similar role in the US with equivalent education, experience or other qualifications.

Remote Employee® is the legal employer. We employ your team member locally in the Philippines and take care of their payroll, taxes, contracts, and compliance. You just pay a set monthly invoice while we take care of the rest.
