My Website Builder Experience:
โ WordPress (good for service-providing businesses, best for design, performance, and accessibility)
โ Wix (good for e-commerce and membership systems)
โ GoDaddy (cheap and slow, but used by many clients)
โ Weebly (limited designs, decent for e-commerce)
โ Square (e-commerce integration for POS systems)

Senior SEO consultant for businesses that need strategic thinking and hands-on execution. 16+ years in technical SEO, local SEO, Google Business Profile (GBP), eCommerce SEO, and WordPress. Now introducing AI SEO, AEO & GEO Services. Plus, an online presence strategy for businesses that need a senior voice on the bigger digital picture.
Hi! I'm Sam. My focus has always been senior-level work for businesses with real operations that need someone who understands both the technical depth and the strategic context. Most of my engagements are with established companies that have tried generic help before and need someone who can actually move the needle.
Here's a summary of what I do:
Technical SEO and site health. Audits, crawl and indexation issues, schema, Core Web Vitals, internal linking, and content architecture. The work that determines whether a site can rank at all.
eCommerce SEO. Product page optimization, category structure, faceted navigation, internal linking at scale, and structured data for products and reviews. The technical decisions that determine whether a store or marketplace can actually compete in search.
AI SEO and Generative Engine Optimization. Adapting strategies for AI Overviews, generative engines, and how search is changing. Most SEO practices haven't caught up yet, and getting this right early matters more than waiting to see how it shakes out. Get your brand seen, cited, and well-regarded across AI search, Google AI Overviews, answer engines, and generative engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot. AI SEO, AEO, GEO, LLMO: different names for the same goal, and I handle all of it.
Local SEO and Google Business Profile. Profile audits, category strategy, Map Pack optimization, and ongoing management. I also founded GBPCentral, a Google Business Profile management platform built on the official Google API. Agencies and multi-location operators use it to manage multiple GBP accounts. The same operational standards go into the work I do for individual clients here.
WordPress and website maintenance. Years of building, maintaining, and recovering WordPress sites. Plugin conflicts, security, performance, and hosting decisions. The practical work that keeps a business's site running.
Online presence strategy. The bigger-picture decisions: where to invest, what to de-prioritize, how SEO works alongside paid, content, and conversion. I work as both a strategic advisor and a hands-on implementer.
How I work:
I take on engagements as an SEO consultant (advice, audits, direction), as a hands-on SEO specialist (implementation), or as an SEO manager overseeing a team that handles execution. Some clients want a mix. For larger operations, I can run the full team while staying involved in strategy.
Reach out if you need a one-time audit, an ongoing retainer, or someone to figure out what's actually going on with your online presence. Even if your situation is outside my usual scope, like an urgent suspension or something that needs handling today, reach out anyway. I'll either help directly or point you toward the right person. First conversations are free.
Send me a message with what you're working through, and I'll respond within a few hours with a specific take.

Hi, Iโm Henri ๐
I build marketing, growth, and business systems that have generated 7-figure revenue growth for companies from Fortune 100 brands to SMBs.
Highlights:
โ Grew revenue from $250K to $2.5M at MediaComEssence (WPP)
โ Generated $2.2M in pipeline for Pritchard Industries
โ Grew SEO revenue 100% YoY ($500K+) at Resolution Media
โ Increased affiliate revenue 40% and partnership revenue 200% at Ziff Media/Mashable
โโโ
Hereโs what I actually do (and how I can help you):
I build AI agents, automations, and custom applications using Claude Code, GPT-5, n8n, Make, GoHighLevel, APIs, and modern AI development tools.
What I build:
- AI sales agents for lead qualification, follow-up & booking
- CRM, pipeline & nurture automation
- AI customer service & voice agents
- Internal AI assistants & knowledge systems
- Automated onboarding, reporting & operations
- Custom integrations, API workflows & AI-powered apps
But youโre not just hiring an automation specialist.
Iโve run my own business for 20 years, served as an executive at leading media companies, built and transformed growth systems at Foundry, Galvanized Media, MediaComEssence, and Ziff Media Group, and coached business owners on growth and strategy.
Iโve also led marketing work for Upwork, JPMorgan Chase, Audi, Volkswagen, Bose, Colgate, TUMS, Flonase, NicoDerm, and dozens of SMBs.
So I donโt just automate what youโre already doing. I understand marketing, GTM, sales, and the larger growth ecosystemโand build systems around where your business is trying to go.
If you need someone who can help think through the strategy and build the system, Iโd love to chat.

I help brands get found, trusted, cited, and chosen across Google, AI search, local search, and the wider web.
SEO is no longer just about ranking on Google or publishing more blog posts. Your customers are searching across Google, AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Reddit, review sites, comparison pages, map results, and trusted third-party sources.
That means your strategy needs to go beyond keywords.
I help businesses build hybrid SEO + AEO strategies that improve visibility, strengthen authority, and turn search demand into real leads, sales, and customers.
My work includes:
SEO strategy and keyword mapping
AEO/GEO strategy for AI search visibility
Google Business Profile optimization
Local SEO and map pack ranking strategy
Content briefs and topical authority planning
On-page SEO and technical audits
Service, product, and landing page optimization
Internal linking and site structure improvements
E-E-A-T and trust signal recommendations
Off-site authority, mentions, and citation opportunities
Analytics, conversion tracking, and reporting
CRO, website design, and development support
For local businesses, Iโm especially strong at helping brands turn their Google Business Profile into a real lead-generation asset โ improving categories, services, landing page alignment, local relevance, review strategy, and map pack visibility so they can compete for top 3 placement in their service area.
A quick note on โagencyโ:
I operate under my agency, JNC Squared, but this is not a model where you get sold by me and handed off to a junior team member. You work directly with me on strategy, communication, and execution oversight.
I call it an agency because I have a vetted network of specialists that allows me to offer full-service support when needed โ including content creation, quality backlink acquisition, analytics/reporting, website design and development, CRO, and more.
So you get the best of both worlds: direct access to a senior SEO/AEO strategist, plus the execution support needed to actually get things done.
Your customers are already searching. Letโs make sure your brand shows up where they are looking and gives them a reason to choose you.

You're burning budget on paid ads while organic sits at 10โ15% of revenue. Your product pages aren't indexed properly, your category structure is a mess, and you've never built topical authority. I fix the foundation and build the organic engine that compounds while your ad costs keep climbing.
