The Starting Point

Bewerbung-Schreiber.com is a career service that helps people write perfect resumes and land their dream job. The service is high-quality, but little of that was visible online.

At project start: less than 100 clicks per month. Barely any visibility for relevant keywords, no content strategy, no systematic backlink building.

The Challenge

  • Minimal traffic with under 100 monthly clicks
  • No SEO strategy in place
  • Competitive niche with established players
  • Niche keywords that need to lead to real inquiries

My Approach

What You Should Consider If You’re a Service Provider

  • Relevance over mass. 1,000 clicks from people who want to have a resume written are worth more than 10,000 clicks from people just looking for a template.
  • Content and backlinks as dual strategy. Content builds relevance, backlinks strengthen authority. Both together result in sustainable growth.
  • Prioritize conversion potential. Not all keywords are equally valuable. Focus on those that bring real inquiries.
