Hire the Best SEO Experts in Florida

Google Business Profile Management for Local Businesses I specialize in fixing the structural and alignment issues that hold back Google Business Profiles from performing. Most Google Business Profiles underperform not because of one missing setting, but because the profile, website, and business details are misaligned. When those pieces don’t match or support each other, visibility, trust, and compliance suffer — no matter how much “SEO” has been done before. My work focuses on the foundation phase: reviewing your Google Business Profile and website together, identifying structural gaps, and cleaning up the issues that impact long-term performance. This includes category and service alignment, foundational profile setup, and website-to-GBP consistency. I do not offer quick optimizations, shortcuts, or ranking guarantees. This is the required groundwork before ongoing Google Business Profile management or broader local SEO efforts make sense. Most clients start with my fixed-scope Google Business Profile Cleanup & Alignment project. From there, I help determine whether ongoing work is needed based on market size, competition, and business goals. This is a good fit if: Your Google Business Profile exists but isn’t performing You’ve worked with SEO or agencies before without clear results You want your GBP set up correctly before spending more money This is not a good fit if: You’re looking for instant rankings or guarantees You want ongoing SEO without fixing foundational issues first You’re not ready to align your website and business details If you want your Google Business Profile set up correctly before investing further, this is the right place to start.

My name is Joey, I’ve specialized in SEO since 2010. My early career was spent in California and Silicon Valley mastering technology and SEO. Now AI, GEO, AEO, and whatever comes next is my core expertise. My career started as a technology consultant for Accenture and Cisco Systems in San Francisco and Newport Beach. It evolved into building multiple tech startups myself…all with success, failure, and my introduction to SEO which I feel in love with. Around 2013 I quit consulting, quit dev startups, and went all in on SEO. That was the best decision of my career and SEO has been my only focus since. In 2020 I left California and moved to St Petersburg, Florida…to focus on client SEO, play more golf, and learn to offshore fish. My SEO services and methodologies are listed below. My former and current SEO clients rank in AI naturally...because search engines are the foundational dataset used in AI. So high quality SEO naturally ranks in AI. My SEO expertise has evolved to include AI, AEO, GEO, LLM, and all things to come. BUT … there are many new variables to consider as AI is evolving rapidly. I have, and will, continue to update my own skill set and services to evolve with the future. Let’s connect if you want discuss your project. Below is a bit more about my consulting style. Talk soon, Joey In my 17 years of technology and SEO I’ve seen the landscape change dramatically many times over. My clients never suffered major algorithms losses or had to re-tool their entire business. I’ve always preached to play by the rules, focus on high quality content, and provide a great user experience. To me, that’s the recipe for longterm success and why I’m still able to grow my career in client consulting. My review profile and results represent this on Upwork.

All engagements are custom per the client’s requirements, team structure, and operating model. I can adapt to any team, workflow, and tech stack. - Core activities are all done outside of the website backend: analysis, strategy, project plan, content writing, link building, and so on. If needed, I can also implement all changes on the website backend. - I am a single freelance consultant. I do not want to run a large agency. I only support a few clients at one time. My engagements are month to month, with most being longterm 6+ months. - 80% of the work is done by myself. For larger projects, I have 3 freelancers who help me with content, development, and link building. All client interactions, analysis, strategy…heavy lifting is done by me. - I prefer a structured pricing model. The client and I will agree on a set monthly budget and defined scope to be completed. All billing will happen on Upwork per Upwork rules which I follow. - Weekends I’m off duty and don’t support normal business activities. Call my cell for emergencies. When the weather is nice on Friday’s I like to dip out early to hit the links or cast a line.
