Okay so I have a day job doing off-page SEO mostly forum/blog posting. I never thought it was this hard. I have a quota of 40 DoFollow links per week without it getting deleted.

It's getting harder for me to do this every week. I asked them until when i'll be doing this and they just said "until it's over"

The websites I'm finding is getting thinner and thinner as the weeks go by and this is stressing me out. I am so frustrated, I can't seem to find those websites. I'm overworked and I don't know what to exactly do now. It's either the posts are getting deleted or there are no websites I can posts on that fits google, forum/blogs and my company's strict guidelines.

Is it really possible to do 40 DoFollow links every week having hard niches? Do you have tips on finding those websites that is DoFollow and 50 DA? Should I ask to change my KPI or just quit this job?

I know I still have alot to learn since this is my first job. I'm hoping the admins accept this post since I'm on the edge of this job and needing a word right now.

    Hi Mimi

    You don't say what business your company is in or how you came to work for them. Are you one of many doing SEO for the company? If so, maybe you can get advice from a colleague. If it's just you, I'd have to say it sounds like a short-term gig. The company probably views this as a cheap and temporary tactic, or they don't understand SEO. What they're asking you to do has little actual ranking value, so I don't see much future in it.

    Nobody can advise you on what to do without knowing more about your personal circumstances, but if the work is causing you that much stress, there are other gigs you could try that might suit you better. Have a look on the various freelance job boards and check out the VA (virtual assistant) roles.

    Good luck.

      Agreed. This company probably knows this is a short-term gig. They probably know you are going to run out of sites to guest post on and that you'll be quitting at some point.

      If this is causing you stress, then I'd find another gig (or two). There is a LOT of work out there for guest posting. Though, admittedly, most of it doesn't pay very much.
