Hi, We are looking for someone with strong SEO experience to help improve the online visibility of websites for startups, entrepreneurs, contractors, consultants, and local service businesses. If this sounds like a good fit for your skills, please send me your proposal or offer. Thank you!

__Overview__ We're a commercial electrical contractor (with a newer home services division) looking for a technical and local SEO audit across two of our websites. We handle all our own development in-house, so we are not hiring anyone to implement changes or access our code. What we need is an audit with recommendations specific enough that our team can code them directly. To be clear up front: this is not a general "improve your SEO" engagement. It's a one-time audit and specification. If the deliverable you produce is a page-by-page build spec, we're a great fit. If it's a generic checklist, we're not. __Our setup (please read — this matters)__ Both sites are self-hosted and custom-built in JavaScript (client-side rendered). There is no CMS (no WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, etc.). This means: - There's no admin panel to log into and no plugin to install — every recommendation get implemented in code by our team. - Content is rendered client-side, so we need someone who understands how to audit what Googlebot actually renders, not just the raw HTML. If you've only ever worked inside WordPress/Yoast, this project isn't the right fit. __Scope__ - 2 websites, roughly 4–5 key pages each (approximately 8–10 pages total). - The two sites are for related parts of the same business, so there's shared context between them. __What we need delivered__ For each key page, we're looking for: - Target keyword(s) with the reasoning behind them — search volume, competition, and intent, including local/geo terms - Exact title tag (with character count) - Exact meta description - H1 / H2 heading structure - Which schema / structured-data type to use, and the specific fields to include Plus, across the sites: - Technical items spelled out — XML sitemap structure, robots.txt, canonical strategy - An off-page / local track — Google Business Profile, reviews, and citations The bar: the audit should read like a spec we could hand to a developer and implement without guessing. Concrete strings and values, not "optimize your meta descriptions for relevant keywords." __What this job is NOT__ - Not implementation — we write the code ourselves. - Not ongoing monthly retainer work. This is a one-time audit + spec. (We may consider ongoing local/reputation work as a separate engagement later, but that's not what we're hiring for here.) - Not link-building packages, blog-writing subscriptions, or "social bookmarking" bundles. In your proposal, include your price for the full scope above and your turnaround time. Thanks — we're looking forward to seeing your work.

We're an insulation contractor on a growth trajectory, and we need an expert who can own our search presence rather than just maintaining it. That means moving the needle on rankings, driving a real increase in organic traffic, and turning local high-intent searches into booked jobs. If you've done this before in a competitive local market, we want to talk. What we're looking for: You understand how search is evolving -- Google, AI-driven discovery, GEO, AEO -- and you know how to stay ahead of it instead. You can show that your clients stick around month after month -- having a recurring relationship means they've recognized your value for their business and ending that relationship means risking their SEO success. Specifically, we want someone who: - Has a track record of ranking local service businesses in competitive markets - Works on recurring monthly retainers (because your results speak for themselves) - Can show us before/after evidence — rankings, traffic, conversions What success looks like: A measurable climb in local rankings, a significant uptick in organic traffic, and more qualified leads coming through search, within a defined timeline. If you're the kind of specialist who takes ownership and obsesses over SEO, we'd love to hear from you. Include examples of local SEO wins and the markets you've competed in. Home services experience a plus. ------------------ PS - a developer is actively upgrading the following technical aspects: Server & Environment Updates: - Upgrade PHP version to latest stable. Update WordPress core and all active plugins. - Apply Elementor and related updates. Verify compatibility after each update. Core Web Vitals & Technical Performance: - Resolve speed and performance issues identified by PageSpeed Insights (get LCP under 2.5 seconds) - Configure caching (WP Rocket or LiteSpeed) - Remove unused CSS and unnecessary plugins - Minify JavaScript and fix deep render-blocking code - Optimize images: Convert all images to WebP (or AVIF if supported) + Resize oversized images + Exclude hero image from lazy loading + Preload hero image (utilize plugins when possible for image optimization) Bot Mitigation & Security: - Verify and apply all security-related protections - Review login hardening, file permissions, and security plugin configuration - Block bots at the server / DNS level (like setting up Cloudflare firewalls to stop out-of-area clicks)

We are seeking a skilled WordPress developer to audit and optimize our website for SEO, AEO, and GEO. The ideal candidate will have experience in improving website performance and search engine rankings. Responsibilities include conducting a thorough website audit, implementing SEO strategies, and ensuring the site is optimized for accessibility and geolocation. If you have a strong understanding of WordPress and SEO best practices, we would love to hear from you.

I need help with a WordPress technical SEO cleanup for a news/blog site. My PageSpeed scores are excellent, but Google Search Console shows many not-indexed URLs. I need someone experienced with WordPress, Yoast SEO, Google Search Console, sitemaps, noindex/canonical settings, and 301 redirects. Current Search Console issue: 649 indexed pages 4,419 not indexed pages 2,358 Discovered — currently not indexed 1,873 Crawled — currently not indexed 182 Excluded by noindex tag Some visitors are also landing on dead/old URLs Scope of work: Review Google Search Console indexing issues and assess not-indexed URLs. Determine whether not-indexed URLs are real blog posts or low-value WordPress URLs like tags, archives, author pages, pagination, or deleted pages. Evaluate Yoast SEO sitemap settings and adjust if needed. Noindex or remove low-value WordPress URLs from search results if appropriate. Ensure real blog posts and important pages are indexable. Check robots.txt, canonical tags, noindex tags, and sitemap structure. Review dead/old URLs receiving visits. Create proper 301 redirects for important old URLs with a relevant replacement page. Do not redirect everything to the homepage. Provide a detailed list of changes made. Important: Please do not change my theme, design, permalink structure, content, categories, article titles, or delete posts without asking me first. Please do not make political/content edits. This is a technical SEO cleanup only. I am not looking for backlinks, ranking guarantees, AI content, or a monthly SEO package. I only need a careful technical SEO cleanup for WordPress, Yoast, Google Search Console indexing, sitemaps, and dead/old URL redirects. Thank you.
