Mehmet Ali C.
Senior SEO Consultant | Technical SEO & Organic Growth
Spoiler Alert For Two Points! 1. If you're looking for a game-changing SEO consultant, you may have just found a strong match. 2. If you believe great SEO requires multiple capabilities, methodologies, and a holistic approach, keep reading. I'm a Senior SEO Consultant with 1,900+ hours and 50+ projects on Upwork, Top Rated Plus status, and a 100% Job Success Score. I work as an independent solo consultant. Every project I take on is researched, scoped, and delivered by me personally, end-to-end, with no handoffs to juniors or account managers. My clients are typically marketplaces, e-commerce brands, SaaS platforms, hospitality businesses, and content-heavy sites that have outgrown generic SEO playbooks. What separates my work from typical SEO consulting: → Product-led SEO. I treat the product itself as the primary growth lever. Product pages, category pages, tools, and feature pages are structured to capture intent at the moment of decision, and content sits around them as scaffolding rather than the other way around. For e-commerce, marketplaces, and SaaS, this consistently outperforms content-first programs because the highest-converting pages are the ones already attached to the product. → Recovery-first thinking. I treat ranking drops and traffic declines as systems problems, not content problems. Most recoveries I've led traced back to structural causes: crawl budget waste, fragmented brand authority, hreflang and canonicalization conflicts, subdomain cannibalization, or migration debt that nobody had cleaned up. → Algorithm literacy applied to your data. I correlate organic traffic patterns to specific Google Core Update rollouts, HCU events, and SERP feature changes, then map findings to E-E-A-T, YMYL, and content quality signals the update actually targeted. The output is a prioritized fix list, not a generic "improve content" recommendation. → Technical depth without losing the business view. I can audit crawl budget, fix rendering issues, untangle parameterized URL chaos, and resolve HTTP status code patterns, then explain in plain language why those fixes will or won't move revenue. → A workflow you can actually manage to. Every engagement starts with a prioritized roadmap, usually visualized as a Gantt chart and tracked in a shared spreadsheet. You'll always know what's done, what's next, and what blocked progress this week. This is how I run every project, and how I'd run yours. Where I add the most value: Organic Traffic Recovery & Algorithm Diagnostics. Root-cause analysis for ranking and traffic declines, Core Update and HCU impact correlation, brand query visibility loss diagnostics, E-E-A-T and YMYL signal audits, recovery roadmaps that prioritize structural fixes before content work. Migration Leadership. Pre-migration audits, URL mapping (301/410/drop), site architecture redesign, hreflang implementation, Search Console Change of Address coordination, and post-migration traffic monitoring across Shopify, Magento, WordPress, Nuxt.js etc. Deep Technical SEO. Crawl budget, crawlability, indexability, rendering and SSR/CSR conflicts, HTTP status code remediation, URL structure (static, parameterized, UTM), HTML elements, CSS/JS resource handling, faceted navigation crawl management, Search Console issue resolution. On-Page & Strategic SEO. Trend and seasonality analysis, persona development, keyword clustering with query-to-landing-page mapping, site architecture, heading hierarchy, title and meta optimization, internal linking systems, schema markup (Organization, Product, ProductGroup), conversion-focused blog strategy. Off-Page SEO. White-hat link acquisition and toxic backlink detection with disavow management. Organic Measurement & Reporting. Keyword tracking with GSC, Semrush, and SEO Monitor. Organic traffic funnels in GA4. Looker Studio dashboards reporting on what actually matters: branded vs. non-branded traffic, organic CTR, conversion rate, organic leads, and SEO ROI. My ideal client: You run a site with real scale and real complexity, usually a marketplace, a multi-region e-commerce store, a SaaS platform, or a content-heavy site where rankings and traffic are tied directly to revenue. You've either just experienced a drop after a migration or Core Update, or you've outgrown retainer-style agency reports that nobody reads. You want a senior partner who can go deep into the technical layer, zoom out to the strategic one, communicate clearly with both engineers and stakeholders, and stay accountable for outcomes rather than deliverables. If that sounds like your situation, send me a message with a quick description of your site, where you think the friction is, and what success looks like 3 or 6 to 12 months from now. I'll come back with an honest read on whether I'm the right person for it.
