EEOC equal employment opportunity advertising rules (no discriminatory targeting), OFCCP requirements for federal contractor clients, CAN-SPAM, TCPA (SMS to candidates), LinkedIn ad policy, state employment agency licensing disclosure requirements, GDPR for EU candidate data On SEO, that means Audit technical health: crawl errors, Core Web Vitals, index coverage, canonical conflicts; Track keyword rankings daily and flag position changes above a configurable threshold — all needing consistent execution a stretched an agency owner can rarely sustain by hand.
