Remote · Europe Full-time · Contractor€1,500 – €2,500 / month + revenue share

We are hiring a Parasite SEO Specialist to build and scale parasite placements on high-authority domains for iGaming offers across European GEOs. You will own the full lifecycle — sourcing hosts, negotiating access, publishing, indexing, monetization and defending rankings.

What you will do

  • Sourcing high-DR / high-trust host domains suitable for parasite placements (news, edu, subdomains, UGC platforms, Web 2.0, PBN-adjacent assets)
  • Negotiating rent, guest post, or long-term placement deals with domain owners and editors
  • Planning and launching parasite pages: keyword mapping, content briefs, on-page SEO, internal/external linking
  • Indexation ops: getting pages indexed fast and keeping them indexed (IndexNow, log analysis, sitemap tactics)
  • Link building specifically for parasite pages — tiered links, niche edits, PBNs, contextual buys
  • SERP defense: monitoring competitors, replacing dropped placements, rotating anchors, handling deindex risk
  • Working closely with the affiliate / product team on iGaming offers, geos, conversion and EPC
  • Reporting: revenue per placement, ROI per host, cost per indexed page, ranking velocity

What we expect

  • 2+ years of hands-on Parasite SEO or aggressive link-building experience in gambling, crypto, adult, nutra or similar competitive verticals
  • Proven case studies: parasite pages ranked in top-10 for competitive commercial keywords (screenshots / URLs required in application)
  • Deep understanding of Google’s ranking behavior on borrowed authority: E-E-A-T signals, host trust, page-level vs domain-level ranking
  • Strong network of host domain contacts, link vendors and content teams
  • Comfortable operating in gray-hat territory with a risk-managed, systematic approach
  • English B2+; ability to write briefs and negotiate placements in English
  • Data-driven: you measure everything (indexation rate, TTR, revenue per URL)

Nice to have

  • Personal portfolio of rented / owned high-DR assets
  • Experience with iGaming affiliate networks (Income Access, MyAffiliates, Everflow, in-house)
  • Basic scripting / automation (Python, n8n, Apps Script) for scaling ops
  • Knowledge of EU gambling regulation nuances (UKGC, MGA, DE, IT, ES markets)

What we offer

  • Full autonomy on strategy and budget for parasite operations
  • Serious monthly budget for host acquisition, links and content — no ‘prove-it-first’ games
  • Revenue share on top of base — you win when the placements win
  • Direct access to product, affiliate managers and dev team (fast iteration, no bureaucracy)
  • Remote, async-friendly, no micromanagement
  • Long-term engagement — we are building a system, not chasing quick flips
