Social Media Marketing Internship
This is a remote internship at Meru Technosoft. It is titled social media marketing, but the duties described are mostly off-page SEO and backlink work for its CRM product, HelloGrowthCRM. It pays ₹1,500 to ₹2,000 a month, which is well below typical for similar remote internships in the field.
What the backlink work involves
Despite the title, the duties are about off-page SEO for HelloGrowthCRM, a CRM and sales growth platform built for B2B sales teams. The intern helps improve how that product performs off-page.
- Finding and building links: research blogs, directories, SaaS and startup listings, business listings and review sites, submit HelloGrowthCRM to them, and build links by white-hat methods. Also spot guest posting, resource page, broken link and content collaboration openings, and research competitors' backlinks.
- Outreach and coordination: support email outreach for link partnerships, draft professional emails for guest posts, link insertions and collaborations, prepare researched lists of prospects, and coordinate with the content team on guest post topics and content needs.
- Tracking and reporting: keep tracking sheets (site, URL, domain authority or rating, contact, submission status, live link, anchor text, follow-up), monitor existing links and flag broken, removed or low-quality ones, and produce weekly link reports and monthly progress summaries, all within the company's SEO guidelines.
Who can apply and what to have ready
The post wants candidates who can work from home, can start between 16 Oct'26 and 20 Nov'26, and are free for 6 months. It asks for relevant skills and interest, and says women restarting their careers can also apply. Early availability is preferred.
- Basic understanding of SEO and how backlinks get created
- Good online research skills for finding relevant sites, directories and blogs
- Familiarity with Google Sheets or Excel for tracking
- Clear written English for simple, professional outreach emails
- Understanding of keywords, anchor text, domain authority and site relevance
- Willingness to learn SaaS marketing and off-page SEO
Knowledge of tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, Moz, Ubersuggest or Google Search Console is an added advantage. Prior exposure to listings, guest posting, directory submissions or blogger outreach is preferred, and so is some understanding of SaaS, CRM or B2B marketing.
How the stipend compares
At ₹1,500 to ₹2,000 a month, this pays well below typical for remote internships in the same field. Weigh that against a 6-month commitment before you apply.
