That Actually Move the Needle
I've been doing SEO since 2008. Not the kind where you get monthly reports full of vanity metrics. The kind where your phone starts ringing from Google traffic.
The Problem
Most Businesses Get SEO Wrong
They hire an agency that promises page 1 rankings. Three months later, they're getting reports about "increased domain authority" and "optimized meta tags" but zero new customers from Google.
I've audited hundreds of sites after failed agency relationships. Same story every time: generic strategies, junior staff doing the actual work, and no understanding of what makes each business different.
Same playbook for every client, regardless of industry or competition
Impressive-looking graphs that don't translate to revenue
They can write content but can't fix the code issues tanking your rankings
Paying monthly for work that should've been done in month one
I learn your customers, competitors, and goals before touching anything
Traffic and rankings matter, but I track what turns into actual money
I don't just recommend fixes. I can implement them myself.
Project-based, monthly retainer, or hourly consulting. Your choice.
The Solution
Work Directly With Someone Who's Done This 815+ Times
When you hire me, you get me. Not an account manager who passes your project to a junior. 16 years of experience on every decision, every strategy, every technical fix.
I'm also a WordPress developer and performance specialist. So when I find technical SEO issues, I don't hand you a list and wish you luck. I fix them.
Freelance SEO Services
I don't offer 47 different packages. I offer what actually works to get you ranking.
SEO Audits
A complete diagnosis of what's holding your site back. Technical issues, content gaps, competitor analysis, and a prioritized action plan. Not a 100-page PDF you'll never read. Actionable fixes.
Keyword Strategy
Finding keywords isn't hard. Finding ones you can realistically rank for that bring buyers instead of browsers, that's the skill. I map keywords to your sales funnel, not just search volume.
Technical SEO
Crawl errors, Core Web Vitals, site architecture, schema markup, indexation issues. The invisible stuff that makes or breaks rankings. I find it and fix it, not just report it.
On-Page Optimization
Title tags, meta descriptions, header hierarchy, internal linking, content structure. The fundamentals that most sites still get wrong. I audit every page that matters and fix what's broken.
Link Building
Real outreach to real websites. No PBNs. No paid links that'll get you penalized. I've been building links since 2008. I know what works and what gets flagged by Google's spam team.
Content Strategy
What to write, how to structure it, and how to make it rank. I create detailed briefs that any writer can follow, or I can connect you with writers I trust. Content that ranks AND converts.
Who I Work With
I'm selective about clients. Not because I'm arrogant, but because I want to work on projects where I can actually make a difference.
SaaS Companies
Product-led growth, feature pages, comparison content, technical documentation that ranks.
E-commerce Stores
Product pages, category optimization, schema markup, fixing the duplicate content mess most platforms create.
Professional Services
Law firms, consultants, agencies. Local SEO, thought leadership content, lead generation.
Content Publishers
Blogs, news sites, affiliate sites. Traffic growth, monetization optimization, content that compounds.
I don't work with:
Gambling, adult content, crypto schemes, or anything that requires me to use shady tactics. If your business model depends on tricking Google, I'm not your guy.
How Engagements Work
No 6-month minimum contracts. No lock-in. Just clear expectations and honest work.
1. Discovery Call
Free 30-minute call. You tell me about your business, what you've tried, what's working and what isn't. I'll be honest about whether I can help and what it'll realistically take.
2. Proposal & Scope
If we're a fit, I send a detailed proposal. Exactly what I'll do, what it costs, and what timeline to expect. No surprises. No scope creep. Clear deliverables.
3. Deep-Dive Audit
Every engagement starts with me understanding your site inside-out. Technical analysis, competitive research, keyword mapping. This informs everything that follows.
4. Implementation
I either do the work myself or guide your team through it. Technical fixes, content optimization, link building. Whatever the strategy calls for. Prioritized by impact.
5. Reporting & Iteration
Monthly calls (for retainer clients) with clear reporting. What moved, what didn't, and what we're doing next. No fluff. Just facts and next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions
Honest answer: 3-6 months for meaningful movement on competitive terms. Some quick wins come faster, especially if you have obvious technical issues I can fix. But real, sustainable rankings take time to build. Anyone promising page 1 in 30 days is either lying or using tactics that'll backfire.
No. And neither can anyone else honestly. Google's algorithm considers hundreds of factors that no one fully controls. What I guarantee is honest work, clear communication, and strategies based on 16 years of experience. Most clients see significant improvement. But I won't make promises I can't keep.
Three things. First, you work directly with me, not a junior who was hired last month. Second, I'm a developer, so I can actually implement technical fixes instead of just documenting them. Third, I'm selective about clients. I only take projects where I'm confident I can deliver results. Agencies take everyone and figure it out later.
Yes. Most of my work is remote. I have clients across India, the US, UK, Australia, and Europe. SEO fundamentals work the same everywhere. For local SEO specifically targeting Indian markets, my local knowledge is a bonus. But I've ranked sites in markets I've never visited.
Absolutely. Many clients have in-house marketing teams or developers. I can work alongside them, provide strategy and oversight, create briefs for writers, or train your team on SEO fundamentals. Whatever structure makes sense for your situation.
It varies by project, but typically: ongoing technical monitoring and fixes, content strategy and briefs, link building outreach, on-page optimization as needed, and monthly reporting calls. I don't pad hours with busywork. You pay for work that moves rankings, not activity reports.

Why Hire a Freelance SEO Consultant?
Most businesses approach SEO wrong. They think they need a big agency with a fancy office and a team of "specialists." What they actually need is someone who knows what they're doing and will give the project real attention.
When you work with an agency, your project gets assigned to whoever's available. Usually someone with 6 months of experience following a checklist. The senior people who sold you? They're too busy selling the next client.
Freelance SEO consultants work differently. You get direct access to someone with deep expertise. Every decision on your project comes from years of experience, not a manual. Communication is faster. Strategy adapts quicker. And you're not paying for overhead you'll never see.
My Background
I started doing SEO in 2008, back when it was mostly a technical discipline. I've watched every major algorithm update, adapted to every shift in how search works, and helped businesses through Panda, Penguin, and the helpful content updates.
What sets me apart from most SEO consultants is my technical background. I'm not just an SEO. I'm a WordPress developer who's contributed to WordPress core. I build plugins. I can look at your site's code and understand exactly what's causing problems.
This matters because modern SEO is increasingly technical. Core Web Vitals, JavaScript rendering, structured data, crawl budget optimization. If your SEO consultant can't talk to your developers as peers, they're missing half the picture.
I've worked with SaaS companies, e-commerce stores, professional services firms, content publishers, and everything in between. Check out my SEO articles to see how I think about search.
