Key Ranking Factors
Seek.com.au has about 9,500 pages indexed on Google. Approximately 82000 back-links to the home page with about 121,000 back-links site wide.
The number of pages index contributes in building its web authority as it indicates a significant web footprint.
Good fresh unique content.
The high number of back-links to its home page would suggest to search engines that the site itself is highly recognisable, while the 40,000 back-links distributed within its sub pages indicates that the content on the site is link and click worthy.
By design, the content itself is designed to be link worthy, with a section dedicated to job hunting self help. Titled “Salary, Advice & Tips” this section provides job hunters and advertisers with useful calculators, industry facts and tips and tricks of employing and getting employed. While it gives the website a little more depth, this content is also known as link-baiting.
The site also has an interesting linking structure. Unafraid to post links in a logical hierarchy, the site has plain text links from the home page that trickle link juice right through to the deeper sub pages. The strength of such a design is that seek is able to “assign” authority priority to its pages. (Implicitly telling Google which pages are more important).
Seo in action
When you search “Jobs” on google.com.au, you’ll find that in position 1 of the natural results lies seek.com.au
SEO here serves as another touch-point to a potential new user. After having seen the job adverts on Television, or on a bill-board, SEO serves to attract the click but also to reinforce the message: “We’re no.1, SEEK and you shall find”.
While conducting searches on Google.com.au on search terms such as “Accounting Jobs”, you will find SEEK’s competitors too. This further serves as a positioning statement that SEEK is amongst the largest and most prominent in Australia.
