Salaries for SEOs and Content Marketers in Focus

Written by Pete Prestipino | Jan 16, 2023 6:00:00 AM
Salary varies greatly in the inbound marketing space as a result of often wild variance in job responsibilities, as well as experience and even assignment location.

Conductor recently  examined available salary data from platforms including Indeed, Glassdoor and Payscale for nine different marketing job titles in the United States: director of marketing, marketing manager, account manager, SEO specialist, content marketing specialist, social media manager, SEO manager, content manager and content director.

So, are inbound marketers making it rain? 

Directors of marketing have the highest average annual salary ($105,038) among the positions examined, while social media managers have the lowest average salary ($55,793) among the positions examined. So the answer is, sort of... sometimes. 

As you can see below, Conductor's analysis also found that average annual salary ranges vary significantly by location.
