Content-led SEO strategy, bilingual UX optimization, and data-backed editorial planning, that's my sweet spot. I’m a bilingual SEO specialist (English/French) with 8+ years of experience helping websites grow through on-page optimization, audience-first content, and performance insights from GA4 and Search Console. My background combines strategic content writing, UX-aware SEO, and localization for international audiences. What I do best: - SEO audits focused on content structure, keyword targeting & UX recommendations - Multilingual keyword research (EN/FR) & intent mapping - On-page SEO optimization (titles, structure, semantic enhancement, internal linking) - GA4 + Search Console analysis for content decisions - Editorial planning based on performance, gaps & competitive landscape - Bilingual localization (not just translation, but strategic adaptation) I don’t offer one-size-fits-all SEO. I focus on content that ranks, engages, and converts, instead of just keyword stuffing or traffic goals with no user value behind them. My experience includes long-term work for multilingual content platforms (e.g., Dentaly.org) as well as shorter strategic audits and optimization projects. I'm especially strong at clarifying what to improve in your content and why, with clear, actionable recommendations tailored to your goals. Whether you need a one-off audit, a re-optimization of underperforming pages, or a full content roadmap in two languages...I'm here to help. Let’s align your content with your audience, search intent, and performance goals.
