These are practical content and marketing ideas any recruitment agency can try — salary guides, market-intelligence posts, answer pages, candidate tools and more. Each is grouped by what it's good for: getting found in search and AI, building authority in your niche, or turning site visitors into pipeline.
Answer the questions your market is already asking
The pages that rank on Google — and get quoted by ChatGPT and AI overviews — are the ones that answer a real question clearly.
A salary guide for your niche
Pick one role you place a lot and publish honest salary ranges by seniority and location. It answers a question thousands search for every month, and it's exactly the kind of page answer engines cite.
A 'what does X earn?' answer page
Take one precise question — 'What does a DevOps engineer earn in Manchester?' — and answer it directly, with the number up top. Structured this way, it's easy for AI search to pull and attribute to you.
A plain-English hiring FAQ
Write straight answers to the questions candidates and clients actually ask you. Clear Q&A is the format answer engines reward — and it quietly handles objections before a call.
Show you know the market better than anyone
Little and often beats one big splash. A steady drumbeat of specific, useful content compounds into the reputation that wins briefs.
A weekly market-intelligence post
Share what moved in your sector this week — roles in demand, a salary shift, a hiring trend you're seeing. Short, specific, and yours.
A 'who's hiring' sector map
Round up the companies growing teams in your niche this month. It's genuinely useful to candidates and positions you as the person who knows the landscape.
An anonymised placement story
One short win — the brief, the challenge, the outcome, no names needed. Concrete proof of how you work beats any generic claim about being 'trusted'.
Give people a reason to raise their hand
Traffic only matters if it converts. The best recruitment content offers something worth an email address.
A salary checker or market-rate tool
Offer a simple 'is my salary competitive?' check. Candidates hand over their details in exchange for something they actually want — and you learn who's in the market.
Ready-to-post content for each consultant
Give every consultant a weekly piece to post, linked back to your site with tracking. Their networks become your traffic, and you can see who drives it.
A value-first talent-pool email
Send passive candidates market insight, not job spam. Being useful keeps you top of mind for the moment they decide to move.
Every one of these works on any website. If you'd rather not write them from scratch, Redsun's content and intelligence engines can draft most of them for your exact sector — grounded in your own evidence — and publish them where they'll get found.
