"Educate, amuse, enrich." That's our global mission, carried out through our award-winning website, best selling books, syndicated newspaper column, and a continuously growing series of market-beating subscription newsletters. We communicate common-sense money management skills and superior investment ideas in plain English.

We spend our days puncturing pretensions. So it follows that our Alexandria, Virginia HQ is an unpretentious place to work. No suits. No neckties. No pantyhose. No problem if you want to puzzle out a dilemma playing ping-pong or pool. (The game room is always open.)

Check out our company's site at : http://www.fool.com/

Job Description:
The Motley Fool SEO Site Manager is responsible for driving a ton of traffic to The Motley Fool website from natural search engine results. Yes, a ton. Or a boatload, take your pick. They will do this by relentlessly optimizing our site architecture and all of our content. In addition, the SEO Site Manager will be tasked with building out a number of new content areas, using SEO best practices as the informational foundation for the areas.

The successful candidate will be ready to come in here and light the world on fire with their SEO prowess. S/he will be able to demonstrate that they've been very successful in their SEO endeavors in other places. Coming to the interview with some ideas about our site wouldn't hurt their cause either.

Improve the Architecture: From the home page through the aggregators and all of the sub-level content, weave it all together to bring the themes out for a better user experience, yielding more relevant and searchable content.
Marketing: Think there's no marketing here? Ha! Every search engine entry has a headline and teaser text. You need to be amazing here. You'll be measured on how much traffic you drive, not how high up in the rankings you get.
Measure, Analyze, and Learn: Using existing Fool tracking systems, gather the data to report on all of our organic search traffic, analyze the trends, learn what's working and what isn't, and then repeat from the top.

Experience:
