  • Work closely with SEO tools, keyword research, and content optimization practices. 
  • Build scalable content formats: match pages, player bios, tournament hubs, explainers. 

Performance Tracking 

  • Monitor content performance using analytics (GA, Search Console, etc.) 
  • Improve KPIs such as: 
  • Organic traffic 
  • Time spent 
  • Returning users

Brand Building
