Benefits
About Stock Charcha
Stock Charcha was built on one belief: the maths of investing shouldn't feel like a locked room only experts can enter. What started as a handful of free tools has grown into a home for India's retail investors — 20+ live calculators across 15 categories, from SIP and brokerage to Capital Gains Tax, STT and even government pay-scale tools, with 300+ more already mapped out on the roadmap.
Our Knowledge Hub and Blog exist to turn dense financial jargon into guidance a first-time investor can actually act on. We're a small, founder-led team building in the open — and honestly, SEO is the bridge between the tools we've built and the millions of Indians who still Google "how much tax on my mutual fund gains" every single day. This SEO Executive role is where you get to build that bridge.
Why This SEO Executive Role Is a Launchpad
Most SEO roles ask you to execute someone else's playbook. This one hands you the pen. As our SEO Executive, you won't be buried in a 40-person marketing team waiting for sign-offs — you'll work directly with the founder, see your keyword research turn into published pages within days, and watch your own rankings move in Search Console week over week. Few early-career SEO roles in India offer that kind of direct, visible ownership.
What Growth Looks Like Here
- You'll master YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) content standards — the exact discipline Google holds finance sites to, and a skill that compounds across your entire SEO career.
- You'll learn to rank calculator pages and informational "money" queries at the same time — a rare, dual skill set most SEO executives never get to practice together.
- You'll build a visible portfolio: rankings, traffic graphs and backlinks you can point to in your very next interview, whether that's here or anywhere else.
If you want a role that teaches you to think like a founder, not just follow a checklist — explore the site, bring us your sharpest idea, and let's build Stock Charcha's next chapter together. Curious about what else we're building? Check our Careers hub for upcoming openings.
FAQs About the SEO Executive Role
Do I need prior experience in finance content to apply?
No. We're looking for strong SEO fundamentals first. Genuine interest in investing helps, but we'll guide you on YMYL content standards and financial accuracy once you're on board.
Is this role fully remote, and what are the working hours?
Yes, it's 100% remote with a flexible schedule. We care about rankings and output, not clock-in times — though some overlap with IST working hours helps for coordination with the founder.
What tools will I use day to day?
Google Search Console and GA4 for tracking, plus Ahrefs, Semrush or Ubersuggest for research. You'll also work inside WordPress with Elementor and Rank Math for on-page optimization.
Can freshers apply for this SEO Executive position?
Absolutely. We welcome freshers who bring a strong portfolio, a self-run blog or site, or sharp, site-specific SEO ideas in their application — practical thinking matters more than years on paper.
