SEO & Local Search Strategist driving traffic, rankings, and measurable ROI.
What I'm looking for
I am an SEO and Local Search Strategist with 2+ years of hands-on experience in on-page, off-page, and technical SEO, focused on delivering measurable growth in traffic, rankings, and leads.
I have optimized Google Business Profiles, citations, local listings, and geo-targeted content to improve search visibility for local audiences, and I routinely analyze local ranking reports to identify growth opportunities.
My toolkit includes Google Analytics, Search Console, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Moz, and Ahrefs; I use data-driven audits and technical optimizations—site speed, crawlability, indexing, and internal linking—to boost SERP performance.
I have built quality backlinks through outreach and digital PR, managed meta ads and social media marketing campaigns, and collaborated with local SEO teams to translate analysis into clear, actionable recommendations.
