Staffing SEO case study: from outside the top 30 to #1

A Japanese staffing company needed more search-driven job applications, not just more traffic.

Japanese local search landscape

Problem

The site had useful services, but weak search positioning.

The team needed clearer Japanese keyword targeting, stronger page roles and a content direction that could support applications.

My work

  • Reviewed business strengths and search demand
  • Reorganized priority keyword targets
  • Clarified page and content roles
  • Prepared implementation guidance for the production partner

What changed

From scattered SEO effort to clearer search intent.

Targeting

Focused on terms connected to actual staffing demand.

Content

Created a more useful structure for users and search engines.

Implementation

Gave the web partner clear SEO instructions instead of abstract advice.
