Job Description
I'm looking for an experienced SEO specialist to help improve Google indexing and search rankings for a large content website with 23,000+ pages in the financial/review niche.
The problem:
The site is built on a modern stack (Nuxt, Cloudflare Pages) with unique content across all pages. The sitemap is submitted to Google Search Console and pages are being discovered, but indexing is slow — only a fraction of pages are getting indexed, and I need to accelerate this and start ranking.
What I need help with:
Diagnosing and fixing indexing bottlenecks (crawl budget, "discovered but not indexed" issues)
Internal linking strategy for a large site
Technical SEO audit (canonical tags, sitemap structure, lastmod, robots.txt)
On-page optimization recommendations
Strategy to improve rankings for target keywords
Requirements
Proven experience with large sites (10,000+ pages)
Strong understanding of Google crawl budget and indexing for new domains
Experience with programmatic/content-heavy SEO
Familiarity with Google Search Console and technical SEO tools
Please share examples of similar projects you've worked on
To apply:
Tell me briefly how you'd approach speeding up indexing for a 23k-page site on a relatively new domain. Generic proposals will be ignored — I want to see you understand the specific challenge.
This could become an ongoing engagement if results are good.
