The current SEO partners will be doubling resources behind top key phrases like pharmaceutical jobs and medical sales.  In addition the team will be experimenting with new techniques in and attempt to push these top phrases to number one on google.

If number one positions are achieved within the next three months this will have a dramatic commercial impact as well as lead the way for the teams approach to it’s other jobs boards in the early stages

Albiet a ‘lesser’ phrase, it’s a good indication that the SEO work is beginning to take a hold on yahoo as to add to the excellent start made on msn.  Around half of the top ten phrases are now front page on msn lead by sales employment, field sales jobs and sales manager jobs, all appearing in the top 3.

The origional aim was to generate front strong page lsitings on both msn and yahoo within 3 months, then google to follow between 4 and 6 months.

Pharmacareers.co.uk and recruitmentcareers.co.uk are throroughly dominant now on both mns and yahoo holding top positions, or close to it across 10 key phrases on each site.  On google now, most phrases are now front page, although on the whole they hold positions between 5 and 10.

The final assault will require top five positions, and indeed number 1 positions to really claim success, but also to pave the way to achieve the same with the newer site sin the sales jobs and graduate jobs sectors.

Once top 5 positions are achieved talks will begin again to spread the campaigns beyond the initial 10 key phrases to add further weight to the traffic through the sites.

Pharmacareers.co.uk has now risen to 5, overtaking rival pharmajobs, which has  page rank of 4, even the though the competitor site is several years older.  The implications are excellent for future search engine lisitings as google considers page rank, in amongst other factors when determining page listing for search phrases.

Recruitmentcareers has also risen one point form 3 to 4.  The Ukcareers team are optimistic that page rank will rise further later this year due to continued SEO work in the background, which would give the sites considerable advantages over competitors with regard to the ability to develop search engine listings.

This is another excellent milestone for the Ukcareers team only 6 weeks after launch.  As new search engines listings begin to appear now over the coming weeks applications should start to flow more freely to the sales recruitment specialists currently on the site for free until the site really takes hold.

Out of 10 key phrases, 9 are now listing on msn, the next key milestone will be listings appearing on yahoo.

The sales sector is enourmous with a role to play within many other job sector.  Whether you’re in engineering, IT, pharmaceuticals or recruitment, there are sales jobs within the sector.  Clients already making money through existing ukcareers sites are looking in anticipation of what uksales-careers could do for them within a few months.
Competiton is fierce and as it’s such a big area for jobs, all of the big general jobs boards have a major sales element on them.  There are also few sales and marketing sites but only a couple of pure sales sites.  For Ukcareers, they believe the more specific the sector.  There are now a few of the big sales recruiters signed up to trial the site and already a handful of others signed up whilst using other sites, it will be intersting to see just how heavy the traffic will be once top search engine positions are achieved.

The phrase ’sales employment’ first appeared at 4 a week ago, and has now leapt to no. 1 on msn.  ‘Sales manager jobs’ has risen from 6 to 3 on msn.  As yet, no appearances on either yahoo or google, however is msn is a good indicator for the future on the other two big search engines, this is an encouraging start for the groups new site.

The site now has over 100 sales vacancies on it and this figure is expected to rise further above 200 over the next week.

The planned Ukcareers portfolio stretches to around 33 niche specific sites.  The strategy thus far has been to launch related, if not overlapping sites which may encourage existing customers to trial and sign up fo the new sites.

Hence recruiters looking for peopl for Medical sales through pharmacareers are highly likely to also look on uksales and maybe even ukgraduates.

However, the model is now a little more tried and tested and the temptationis there to go after the largest, but most competitive sectors, examples of which are IT, Legal, financial, avaiation and tourism.  Converseley, a launch to a more niche specialist aread could succeed more quickly but with a smaller prize at the other end, examples here would be journalism, marketing and catering.

The present likelihood is to select one from each category and launch two more at the next juncture.  It’s expected that the latest two sites will become financial viable within 4-6 months, watch this space then for more from Ukcareers.

It’s now 5 months since the SEO campaign began for pharmacareers.  Results on msn and yahoo were dramatic and relatively quick, achieving number one positions for such as Medical sales and pharmaceutical jobs in only 2 months.  Google has proved more of a super tanker with slow but steady progress over 8 months now.

Most of the key phrases in the campaign are no either at the top of page 2 or the bottom half of page one.  These results are pleasing, however, it is thought that the dramatic impact on traffic sought will only really occur with top 3 positions.  The phrase pharmaceutical sales now leads the way here, appearing at 2 on google.  If the current trend continues, top 3 positions are realistic for the other phrases over the next 2 months.

The success has occurred unexpectedly after a limited SEO campaign 2 months ago, confirming that this particular sector is not dominated by ’search engine savy’ web sites.   It remains to be seen how high the site will climb on google although historically yahoo has been a good early indicator of what is likely to occur on google once it ‘catches up’.

Jobs in pharmacy, which wasn’t listing on google at all before the campaign is no showing on page 4, further gains may appear here over the next month.
