How to Start a Recruitment Company Website That Gets Found Online?
Starting a recruitment company requires a professional recruitment website that helps candidates and employers find you through Google and AI-powered search engines.
Setting up a new recruitment venture is a massive undertaking. You need a digital presence that commands respect from day one, without the "heavy" price tag that usually follows. We can empathise because our founder, Darren, started his own start-up/micro-recruitment company years ago, before founding RecruiterWEB in 2004.
This recruitment website plan is designed for start-up recruitment agencies that want to launch quickly, appear credible, and be discoverable online from day one.
With RecruiterWEB, there is no need to compromise on weak tech or break the bank to get the best features.
We recognise that every pound is precious in the start-up phase, so we have priced this service to get you started with the best tech at the lowest fee. All our features come as standard, and they are the very best the industry has to offer.

This includes:
- Clean page structures.
- SEO-friendly URLs.
- Editable page titles and descriptions.

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).
Since 2004, we have helped 100+ recruiters start their recruitment businesses by providing recruitment website technology and design that help them stand out in a crowded market, along with design know-how based on 100,000 hours of development time and reviews of 12,000 recruitment websites.
Starting with a theme-based design, the recruiter can stay on that design plan for life, switch to another design when they want a refresh, or gradually build a bespoke website with us as they mature their financial spend capabilities without breaking the bank from day one.
At RecruiterWEB, we cut prices, not corners, which is why the Start-Up plan includes access to all our features and support, just like any other plan.
Help is on hand when you need it most, from a founder who has walked your walk and talked your talk, having built their own agency before founding RecruiterWEB.
