Karlijn: “Als SEO specialist bij Springbok is geen dag hetzelfde. Het ene moment werk ik aan een technische analyse waarbij ik actiepunten uitwerk om de performance van onze klant op de Google Web Vitals te verbeteren, daarna heb ik een meeting met een junior collega om hem te leren hoe je een zoekwoordenonderzoek voor SEO uitvoert. Vervolgens heb ik een digitale meeting met meerdere collega’s en een van onze klanten om de resultaten van vorige maand en de actiepunten van volgende maand te bespreken. Daarna doe ik nog een check-up op onze outreach trajecten en ga ik aan de slag met een contentanalyse voor een pagina van een klant die de laatste tijd wat achterloopt qua prestaties. Nee, mijn job is nooit saai.”
