I Help Businesses Grow
I do this by increasing their organic traffic (SEO) and conversion rates (CRO) for lead generation and sales.
What I Can Do For You
I can help you accelerate growth by increasing your qualified organic traffic, and converting that traffic into leads and sales. As a marketing consultant, I will work with you as an addition or extension to your team to optimize your exposure and lead generation.
I Audit.
Using tools and checklists, I dive into your current rankings, traffic analytics, and website architecture. I conduct a UX and technical SEO audit to find any snags that need to be addressed. I then conduct some topical research, map topics to existing pages, and uncover gaps.
I Plan.
Next, I put together a series of action items to implement. But I structure my processes in such a way that they remain flexible and can easily adapt when situations and priorities change. They’re more like a framework I can manipulate rather than a plan set in stone.
I Work.
Finally, I execute the plan, which is always focused on growth, lead generation, and sales. I also provide you with ongoing reports to keep you informed, and I use a variety of preferred platforms, premium tools, best practices, and helpful resources to do the job.

My Philosophy
Today, people search based on topics, not keywords.
Effective, long-term SEO focuses on the user's search intent. That's why I put my effort into increasing the overall qualified organic traffic rather than chasing after individual vanity keywords. Plus, when it comes to converting that traffic into leads or sales, this is where UX and SEO start to interact. They share the goal of helping users to complete their tasks by providing them with relevant information.
My approach is to start by auditing your current rankings, traffic, architecture, content, and more to get a better understand of your situation. I use a number of tools and resources to accomplish this, such as Google Analytics, SEM Rush, Ahrefs, Moz, etc. Once the audit is done, I then map out an action plan, which may be done in phases.
- Identify key topics and trends that your target market is interested in when looking for solutions to their problems.
- Optimize your existing site and content based on those topics, and create a content strategy to attract, educate, and convert prospects during their research for what you offer.
- Improve conversion rates by optimizing your landing pages, improving page load speeds, fixing crawl errors, and integrating proper lead capturing and nurturing devices throughout.
