About Me
Hi, I’m Gaurav Tiwari (IPA: /ˈɡɔːɾəʋ tɪˈʋɑːɾi/), a developer, designer, marketer, and educator with over 15 years of hands-on experience.
As the CEO and Project Lead at Gatilab, I focus on helping individuals and organizations succeed online. I build performance-focused websites, create high-converting content, and design tools that solve practical problems.
My journey started in 2008–09 when, at 16, I began working with local businesses out of necessity. What began as a small hustle soon became my passion and profession.
Since then, I’ve worked with over 800 clients, from startups to government agencies and global companies like IBM, Adobe, Canva, and HubSpot.
My expertise spans web development, content marketing, SEO, and graphic design, specializing in strategies that drive growth, improve conversions, and boost performance tailored to specific goals.
Every project I take on is rooted in problem-solving and delivering results. I’ve been fortunate to work with brands globally, helping them innovate, scale, and succeed efficiently.
Beyond client work, I’ve created open-source projects used by thousands, written extensively on digital marketing, and developed tools like WordPress themes and plugins, including Asadharana-Toolkit, Writ, TrueBlogger and Dynamic Month & Year into Posts.
Teaching is another passion of mine, and I’ve shared insights into everything from SEO to affiliate marketing, generating over $1.2 million in sales for various brands in 2023 and $2.7 million in 2024.
What Drives Me?
For me, it’s not just about designing a great product or service — it’s about creating something that people truly need and making it accessible. Every website I build, article I write, and tool I design is crafted with performance and usability in mind.
Having been a college topper in both my school and graduate courses and having cleared several competitive exams, I believe in grinding through continuous learning and sharing that knowledge.
My journey in teaching and education extends to developing courses and providing mentorship to students, helping them excel in subjects like mathematics and science.
