You need an experienced SEO specialist who can take complete ownership of your SEO strategy and execution—and that's where I come in. I offer managed SEO services for businesses that aren't getting enough value from their current SEO campaign or want to increase their organic traffic, AI visibility, and conversions. When you hire me, I take care of the full search engine optimization process, including: - On-page SEO (Content quality and authority optimization) - Internal link optimization - Implementing a pillar/cluster strategy - Local SEO optimization - Structured data optimization (schema markup optimization) - Mobile optimization - GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) - AEO (Answer Engine Optimization / Google AI overviews) - EEAT optimization - YMYL optimization - Negative SEO and reputation management - Digital PR and media buying - WordPress site optimization, security, and maintenance - Google Core Web Vitals optimization - Search intent optimization If you're looking for someone to take your SEO seriously and actually get the work done, drop me a message. If our goals align, I'd be happy to work with you. Ciao!
