Recruitment Website Design
We build purpose-built recruitment websites for UK recruitment agencies, fast, compliant, and SEO-first, engineered for Google for Jobs, long-tail job searches, and AI visibility.
Genuine Recruitment Know-How
Why most recruitment websites don’t work.
Most recruitment websites are built on platforms designed for blogs, brochures or online shops, not recruitment. They look professional, but they fail quietly. Here are the problems we see every week:
- Job pages that don’t index properly in Google
- Websites that fail to meet Google for Jobs requirements
- SEO is limited by plugins instead of built into the platform
- Hidden caps on jobs, pages, support and/or traffic
- Constant paid upgrades just to stand still
- Little or no marketing/SEO budget behind the site
- These aren’t content problems — they’re platform and marketing problems.
RecruiterWEB avoids these platform issues because our CMS is purpose-built for recruitment, and we can support SEO from as little as £99 per month.
Recruitment Website Software for the Win
Finding the right candidates starts with being visible where job seekers search. This recruitment website is built to help candidates discover your jobs through;
- Google for jobs.
- Google search.
- Google local.
- Long tail job search matches (90% of searches made this way).
- Bing search.
- Bing for Jobs.
- AI-powered search.
- Branded client pages/careersites (optional).
- A blogging strategy aimed at passive candidates.
- Advice pages aimed at passive candidates.
By putting the right content in all the right places, your website will be a strategic source for candidates you can easily place.
Recruiters often ask how to attract clients online. The answer is visibility. Which is why we will build specialist pages for clients' general enquiries that are attractive to search engines and AI and give you that visibility.
- Build pages for nice sector requirements.
- Build pages for location-based client enquiries.
- Give you candidate marketing pages to attract clients.
- Give you salary data pages to attract clients looking for pay guides.
- Provide you with ways to market this data via LinkedIn, email, and other channels.
- Build case study pages.
- Build testimonial pages.
- Build pages to cover your services.
- Build pages for each location you serve.
- Build staff pages that showcase niche know-how.
By clearly explaining who you recruit, what roles you fill, and where you operate, your website becomes a lead-generation tool that complements your outreach and networking.
Every recruitment website is designed to be search-engine-friendly, making it easier for Google, Bing, other search engines, and AI to understand your services, job listings, and expertise.
This includes:
- Clean page structures.
- SEO-friendly URLs.
- Editable page titles and descriptions.
- Structured data for all pages.
- Image size management for LCP
- Mobile-optimised design.
- Job pages built to rank for long-tail job searches.
- Job listings are also optimised for Google and Bing for Jobs
This means your website isn’t just live, it’s ready to be found.
We build pages according to the following checklist:
- Can someone answer “what is this?” in 10 seconds from the first screen?
- Is there a single paragraph that could be quoted as the answer?
- Do headings look like the questions people ask?
- Are there proof points (examples, numbers, process, constraints)?
- Is this page clearly the best page on your site for this question?
- Clear, quotable answer near the top
- Strong structure (headings, bullets, short paragraphs)
- Evidence and specificity (numbers, examples, process)
- Visible trust signals (who, when, why you’re credible)
- One page “owns” one intent (hub + supporting pages)
- Crawlable, accessible content (not hidden behind scripts)
- Honest, matching structured data (schema)
