SEO for Recruitment Agencies in London
London recruiters fight on two fronts: winning candidates from huge job boards and winning hiring clients from hundreds of rival agencies. SEO for recruitment agencies in London helps you build visibility for both, with sector pages that clients trust and job listings that candidates can actually find.
Our founder brings 10 years' hands-on experience in SEO, digital marketing and web development.
Why search matters for London recruiters
Job boards charge for every advert and own the candidate relationship. Clients, meanwhile, often search for specialist agencies before picking up the phone. SEO for recruitment agencies in London builds a pipeline you own, reducing reliance on paid job adverts and cold outreach.
What SEO for recruitment agencies in London includes
We build sector and role pages around your specialisms, such as fintech, legal, construction, hospitality or temporary staffing, with separate content for clients and candidates. Each page explains your expertise in that market using only claims you can back up.
Local SEO and London sector hubs
Many London sectors cluster in recognisable areas, such as finance in the City and Canary Wharf or tech around Shoreditch. Where it matches your desks, we create useful content for those markets rather than generic borough pages.
Google Business Profile for agencies
If you have a staffed London office, we optimise your profile with accurate categories (Employment agency, Recruiter), hours and photos, and help you collect genuine reviews from candidates and clients. Remote or virtual offices are not eligible, so we advise on what is allowed.
Keyword research for candidates and clients
Candidates search for roles ('junior accountant jobs London'), clients search for services ('legal recruitment agency London'). We map both and create salary guides and hiring advice so SEO for recruitment agencies in London earns links and trust.
Technical SEO for job listings
Job pages often expire, duplicate or block search engines. We fix indexing of live roles, handle expired jobs properly, add valid JobPosting structured data where your platform supports it, and improve speed on mobile, where most candidates apply.
Competition and realistic openings
Big boards dominate generic job searches. Niche sectors, specific role types and helpful market content give specialist agencies real opportunities. We show which competitors rank and where gaps exist.
Converting visitors into CVs and briefs
Simple CV uploads, clear vacancy submission forms and visible consultant contact options make the difference. Combined with SEO for recruitment agencies in London, this turns traffic into applications and new client briefs.

Frequently asked questions
What does SEO for recruitment agencies in London focus on?
Two audiences: candidates looking for roles and businesses looking to hire. We create separate content and conversion paths for each. Sector specialism is usually the strongest angle. We also fix technical issues common to job platforms.
Can you get our jobs into Google's job results?
We can add valid JobPosting structured data and fix indexing so your jobs are eligible. Google decides what appears, so we cannot guarantee placement. Eligibility also depends on your job platform supporting the markup.
Should we target candidates or clients first?
It depends on where your bottleneck is. Many agencies need more clients, so we often prioritise sector pages for hiring managers. Candidate visibility can follow through job pages and salary guides.
Do salary guides really help SEO?
Well-researched salary guides are useful, get shared and attract links. They also show clients you understand the market. Figures must come from your own data or reliable sources.
What does recruitment SEO cost?
Our published plans are £349, £449 and £699 a month, with custom plans for larger agencies. We recommend one after a free audit.
How long does recruitment SEO take?
Technical fixes can help within weeks; competitive sector rankings typically take several months. We give a realistic outlook and never guarantee positions.
Can you work with our existing job board software?
Usually yes. We review what your platform allows, such as editable titles, structured data and expired job handling, and work within it or recommend changes.
How do you report results?
Monthly reports cover rankings, visits, applications and client enquiries we can track, with a plain-English summary and next steps.
