I'm Dinishika, a tech specialist, using my skills to empower the world of marketing. With over 5 years of experience as a web developer and more than 6 years in digital marketing and web content management, I help businesses create seamless, data-driven online experiences. From running ad campaigns and building automation systems to designing web platforms and delivering high-impact webinars, I specialize in connecting technology, content, and strategy to drive real, measurable results. I’ve successfully collaborated with global clients across Australia, Japan, the UK, and beyond — delivering projects that combine technical precision with marketing insight. Web Development I started my career as a back-end web developer in 2009, focusing on converting static HTML websites into dynamic, WordPress-based platforms. I'm proficient in setting up websites on servers, migrating complete sites, integrating plugins and themes, adding custom code, and resolving CSS and JavaScript issues. I also have hands-on experience developing and customizing themes on platforms such as WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, and Drupal. As part of my open-source contributions, I participated in Google Summer of Code, where I developed an RDFa plugin for WordPress in collaboration with Creative Commons. Content Management I have extensive experience as a Content Administrator and Virtual Marketing Assistant, with a strong focus on maintaining websites built on platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix. I'm skilled in managing site architecture, configuring domains, handling DNS settings, and performing content migrations. My responsibilities have included maintaining editorial calendars, uploading SEO-optimized blog posts, and ensuring consistency and up-to-date content across all digital assets. Over the years, I’ve handled tasks such as plugin installation, functionality testing, and technical troubleshooting. Beyond the technical side, I pay close attention to content quality, brand voice, and user-centric language. I strive to create content that balances technical accuracy with marketing appeal—content that resonates with users, sparks emotional connection, and supports strategic conversion goals. SEO SEO is at the core of much of my work. While I specialize in SEMrush, I also have hands-on experience with tools like Ahrefs, Google Search Console, and Yoast SEO. My SEO responsibilities include on-page optimization, keyword research, SEO audits, and performance tracking. I ensure all content follows SEO best practices, improve site indexing, and monitor ranking progress using analytics tools. Additionally, I have experience setting up structured data, configuring sitemaps, and implementing page performance enhancements to boost search visibility and user experience. Analytics I have a strong foundation in analytics, backed by certifications in data analysis from Coursera and Google Analytics 4 (GA4). I'm proficient in setting up GA4 reports, analyzing traffic trends, tracking user behavior flows, and monitoring conversions. I regularly use GA4 to generate weekly reports on user engagement and acquisition metrics. For more advanced insights or when working with large datasets, I apply advanced data analytics techniques using Power BI or Tableau to uncover trends and support data-driven decisions. Email Marketing I have executed and supported digital marketing campaigns across a variety of platforms. I’ve worked extensively with email marketing tools such as Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, and GetResponse. My responsibilities included crafting campaign strategies and automation funnels, designing visually engaging newsletters, segmenting email lists, and analyzing campaign performance to optimize results. In addition to email marketing, I have hands-on experience in social media marketing — from scheduling posts and managing content calendars to handling basic paid ad campaigns. My approach combines creativity with data to ensure consistent brand presence and measurable engagement across channels. Paid Advertising I have experience on managing paid advertising campaigns across platforms like LinkedIn, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), and Google Ads. I’ve had proven success with LinkedIn and Google, where I contributed to a 30% increase in sales by running targeted Google Search campaigns. My expertise includes overseeing keyword strategy, developing compelling ad content, and continuously analyzing campaign performance to optimize results. I focus on refining audience targeting, setting up and monitoring conversion tracking, and making data-driven adjustments to improve ROI and campaign effectiveness. Project Management I’ve used Trello and Asana extensively to manage content workflows and marketing timelines.
