What the role involves
Gambling sites climb in Google on links, and a link builder brings them in every day. In some teams that means crowd links: dozens of comments, profiles, forum posts and Web 2.0 pages a day from warmed-up accounts via anti-detect browsers and proxies. In others it's outreach: find a site with traffic, agree an article, haggle on price and check the link stays live and gets indexed. There's also automated link building with GSA and Xrumer for tier-two and tier-three links. The link builder breaks down competitors' link profiles in Ahrefs, keeps donor databases by geo and language and reports on every link placed.

Working hours: Almost always remote, Mon–Fri with a flexible start. Often paid on a KPI for number of links.
Market demand: Hiring comes from SEO holdings and affiliate site networks in gambling, and from operators with in-house SEO. Crowd specialists and outreach specialists for Tier-1 markets are sought most.
