Jelena Glišić
@jelenaglii
Senior SEO & growth strategist building conversion-driven, UX-led international strategies.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior SEO professional focused on building holistic, conversion-driven strategies for international websites. I integrate SEO with brand, content, CRO, growth marketing, and UX, and I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to align strategy with business goals.
In my current work, I led the digital transformation of two brands across UX, SEO, paid media, and operations, building scalable CXL systems and managing execution end-to-end. I also drove $40k in revenue in under three months through integrated GA4 growth efforts, including a sold-out show and venue growth.
Previously, I led SEO and growth strategy for a competitive NYC moving company, rebuilding site structure, technical SEO, and persona-based landing pages to connect SEO with CRO. By scaling content, local PR, link building, and GBP optimization, I delivered +149% sessions and +87% engaged sessions YoY, while moving key commercial keywords from pages 4–7 into consistent first-page rankings.
My background also includes technical SEO leadership for large international e-commerce platforms (with developers and growth/CRO/content teams), plus end-to-end digital marketing and SEO for a tourism brand where I drove a 360% increase in website traffic in four months. I continuously share what I learn through SEO education and long-form publishing, including onboarding 120+ Serbian-speaking users to practical, end-to-end frameworks.
